Holland Returning To Britain
Updated: December 22, 2015 at 2:53 pm
Daryll Holland has been appointed stable jockey to the powerful yard of Charlie Hills for the 2016 flat season. The 43-year-old has spent the last two years riding in South Korea and Mauritius and the group 1-winning jockey is delighted at the prospect of coming home to join a stable with such ammunition as Hills's.
Speaking to the Racing Post, Holland said, “I enjoyed my time abroad, but this is a golden opportunity. I started with the Hills family when I was 15 and hopefully I can end my career with them.”
Charlie Hills enjoyed a wonderful 2015 mainly thanks to the exploits of Muhaarar (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}) and said, “Having a stable jockey is something we were thinking about for a while. Daryll's got plenty of big-race experience, is good on 2-year-olds and he'll give very good feedback on the horses.”
