骑师杰夫·劳埃德计划今年退役

昆士兰州第一骑师杰夫·劳埃德宣布已把退役计划提上日程,今年的布里斯班冬季嘉年华将是他参加的最后一届。

昨日早晨的2018年布里斯班冬季嘉年华启动会上,作为特邀嘉宾出席的骑师杰夫·劳埃德确认自己将在今年晚些时候退役,明年的布里斯班冬季嘉年华赛事中不会再有他的身影。

劳埃德近几年事业发展非常顺利,上赛季的布里斯班骑师之争和昆士兰州骑师之争中,他都是笑到最后的人,本赛期赛程过三分之二,他又在这两大榜上建立了牢牢的领先优势,连庄前景非常之好。之所以选择现在退役,劳埃德主要是想多陪陪家人,他说自己的大儿子正在南非的骑师学院学习,小儿子也非常热衷于成为一名骑师,他想花时间去帮助他们。

劳埃德现年56岁,在澳洲、南非、香港和新加坡都策骑过,至今已有94场一级赛的胜利在手,但是骑师生涯开始之地南非的第一大赛——德班七月赛,他至今还没有赢过。他曾11次在该赛中夺得过季军,但是始终都未能再取得突破。今年的布里斯班冬季嘉年华结束之后,劳埃德会借探望儿子的机会再战德班七月赛,这是他弥补遗憾的最后机会。
