Bryony Frost

Very good, thanks for the link. Im intruiged about what the atmosphere with other jockeys could be about...
 
Thought she gave storm arising a belter of a ride today

(And I was on the second)
 
From what I have seen of bryony frost, which is very little, I would imagine that what she thinks is resentment towards her for winning big races, is actually just weariness of her, as I may be wrong but I imagine if I had to spend any sort of long period of time around her I would be clawing at the exit door.

hollie doyle, rachael blackmore and hayley turner have also been successful and won big races but I havent heard about much in the way of resentment towards them, as unlike bryony, neither of them come across as incredibly annoying :glee:

When I initially saw the first article re bullying in the sport my sympathies went out to Bryony and I hoped, and still hope, she's looked after by the BHA and if there's wrong doing people are punished.

That being said, I didn't realise it was as a result of a fatal incident though. Theres no excuse for bullying, ever, but if all we're talking about here are cross words between two professionals post a sporting incident, then that just means there's nothing to see here right???

I obviously don't know the ins and outs and am taking an assumptive line here, but that's what it sounds like. Jockeys arguing and shouting at each other before, during and after racing is normal and common.
 
EDIT: even though it's something I wanted to say, I've had this conversation so many times, I already know all the replies and I cba with it
