Post Jockey ability question
Hi, I've reciently picked up a copy of SO6 and I'm enjoying it so far!

I cannot see any jockey ability bars like you do with the horses. Do jockeys have any invisible stats? Or are all Jockeys the same apart from their weight?

No jockey ability bars are viewable.

As far as I remember, all UK flat jockeys are of similar ability with the exception of Moore, Dettori and Hughes who have been boosted slightly. Not sure about NH or other countries.

I have never heard this before.

Who told you?

I just assumed they were all the same.

Cheers

Scatters, you have never noticed the first 5 or so jockeys in the default jockeys list in every nationality always strike at a better rate than the rest of the jockeys? This has been happening since the first versions of the game.

They usually strike at a 5% better clip than the rest.

My current short form game jockey list. Castellano is my jock so his percentage is always very high. Under these jocks the rest are striking at a 10 to 13% clip.

So it would make sense to always use those jockeys where possible? But obviousely they would usually cost a bit more to use them?
