It's a delight to introduce a young man whose serious health problems haven't diminished his resolve to become a serious professional jockey. Harry begins by talking about the wide area he covers in the pursuit of winners. He talks of a two year stay in Bendigo and the homesickness that took him back to Swan Hill. Harry talks about the 10 hectare property near Swan Hill where he lives with partner Tayla. He recalls having lived a reasonably normal childhood despite the restrictions imposed by his medical condition.   Harry takes us through his regular medication regime and the daily physiotherapy required to get him to the races. The jockey pays tribute to his horse trainer father Austy who remains his greatest supporter. He talks of his only sibling, brother Sam who has chosen a career path away from racing. Harry looks back on the magical occasion of his first winning ride.  He acknowledges the ongoing support of trainer Darren Weir in his early days as a jockey. The 25 year old will never forget his only Gr 1 win to date. Darren Weir entrusted him with the ride on Sopressa in the Schweppes Australasian Oaks of 2018. Harry takes us through an unforgettable day. He looks back on the exciting day at Wycheproof when he rode six of the seven winners. Harry makes special mention of one of his favourite horses- the great bush galloper Vianden who won many Country Cups. The jockey speaks with reverence of a horse called Signoff. He has no doubt the Darren Weir trained gelding is the best horse he's ridden to date.  Harry talks of his strong association with the Maher/Eustace stable. He expresses his appreciation of the wise counsel he receives from media identity Deane Lester. Harry says the absence of interstate jockeys and his ability to ride at a light weight, might bring him a ride or two in the bigger races over the Victorian carnival. There was no hesitation when I asked Harry to name the jockey who has been his greatest inspiration. This is a bright and breezy chat with a remarkable young man.

SFN's premiere sports talk show, hosted by Austy and Mitch! (Austin Vidal and Ryan Mitchell) This week, Austy and Mitch discuss a rather lackluster Super Bowl in which Tom Brady completes his Infinity Gauntlet and leads the Patriots to become only the second franchise in the NFL to have six super bowls. Austy's record for the 2019 playoffs 2-1, Mitch's record, 1-2. Many moves were made in the NBA as the trade deadline came and went. The Raptors move some character pieces for a former all star Center Marc Gasol. 76's add Tobias Harris among others, including moving on from former 1st overall pick Markelle Fultz. The biggest surprise being the teams that didn't move big pieces, like Anthony Davis staying put in NOLA and the LAkers not trading the entire future for AD. NHL, thing are heating up, as we draw closer to the trade deadline. Could the Columbus Blue Jackets movie the big Russian pieces for assets or sit? After acquiring Jake Muzzin, does Toronto pry a player for the canes? Michael Ferland is being a hot commodity for a lot of teams, is he worth a high pick?

In fact, she’s so adept at trying to stamp out her feelings that she could probably write a How-To guide on the subject. One, move 3,000 miles away from your best friend. Two, get a time-consuming job so you don’t have time to think about your best friend. Three, hang out with new friends who aren’t anywhere as enchanting as your best friend. Four, get involved with a striking woman who is smart, sexy, caring and, most importantly, available, unlike your best friend. Five, hope the new love interest doesn’t find out about your pathetic best friend obsession before you have time to replace it with actual life-altering love.  Even following her own step-by-step process, Austy may not be able to redirect all of her misguided feelings. Becoming involved with Elise Bridie helps her realize how pointless her pining has been. But when Elise suspects that she harbors feelings for someone else, will their new found love survive the unrequited infatuation of Austy’s fantasies?    Get it on Amazon.com | Amazon.co.uk | Amazon.ca    10 Just Jorie by Robin Alexander  Published by Intaglio Publications  What it’s about  Some believe that special someone is out there just waiting to be found.
