Here is big news for the horse racing lovers that by the retirement of Jamie Spencer, Andrea Atzeni is going to replace him right there at Qatar Racing’s tournament. Besides Andrea, Oisin has also been called for taking over the ride from the coming year 2015.
Recently the news of Jamie Spencer regarding the decision of retirement shocked the horse riding racing lovers. In a recording released by Qatar Racing tournament on Friday, Atzeni showed that he is very privileged as he is going to ride in Qatar Racing for the very first time as a first jockey. Atzeni on his news of replacing Jamie Spencer said, “I am excited at the prospect and look forward to repaying the faith Sheikh Fahad and his brothers have shown in appointing me. I would like to thank all the trainers who have supported and helped me in my career, without which I would not have received this opportunity. In particular, I would like to thank Roger Varian and his wife Hanako for their support. I credit Roger with putting put me on the map, through horses such as Kingston Hill. I am very grateful to Sheikh Mohammed Obaid and Luca Cumani, who have both been terrific to ride for, and to Robert Eddery, who has also been a great supporter.”
Jamie Spencer though earned a great career throughout his life in riding and horse racing. The news of his retirement shocked and grieved the fans from all over the world of horse racing. Andrea Atzeni is indeed a great rider too but till now he has not earned the big career as it is of Jamie Spencer. The hopes from Andrea Atzeni are now high by the fans. Let’s see what this rider has now for the fans in coming Qatar’s Racing Tournament 2015.
Murphy is just eighteen now and as he has been selected for Qatar Racing Tournament, he has expressed his great gratitude and he said, “I’m very fortunate to be given the opportunity to be a part of Qatar racing. I look forward to my role as second jockey in the coming season. I would like to thank Andrew Balding for his guidance and support during the past two seasons.”
So now the hopes from both riders are quite high. I think Atzeni will do something great in Qatar tournament. After all he has replaced a great star Jamie Spencer.
