Sydney champion-elect apprentice rates It's A Knockout as his best chance at Randwick
-
SYDNEY - Apprentice jockey Braith Nock has announced himself as a rising talent this season and he has another strong book of rides at Randwick.
Just over six months ago, the Scone-based rider headed to Sydney on a three-month loan to trainer Peter Snowden with little more than a desire to improve his riding.
The stint proved so successful that he readjusted his goals and set his sights on claiming the Sydney junior riders' crown, a title he has now sewn up with three weeks of the 2024-25 season still remaining.
A double at Canterbury on July 9 took Nock to 38 metropolitan wins this term, 14 clear of nearest rival Molly Bourke, catapulting him into ninth place on the Sydney jockeys' premiership.
The moustachioed rider has booted home 109 winners statewide, second only to Aaron Bullock (114) and still a rough chance of capturing New South Wales riding honours.
