The Wizard of Oz – or the Wiz for Short

How good a rider is this Angela Jones kid?

The Wiz.

She is only 20 years old, has been riding for less than 2 years, has had only 448 rides, and already she has ridden a hundred winners.

That’s freakish for an apprentice.

What’s even more remarkable is that the Wiz kicks them home first at a strike rate of more than 1 in 5 – 22% to be precise – and that 1 out of every 2 mounts she takes finishes a place.

Not even Jim Byrne or Ryan Maloney do that.

Wow.

The Wiz sure is something.

She rode a treble at Toowoomba yesterday.

It’s becoming a bit old hat.

Soon she will be riding cards.

Jaden and Zac Lloyd have a bit of head start.

But boy, they are going to need it.
