KINGSTON, Jamaica — The 2024 racing season has commenced with a conspicuous absence of champion jockey, Reyan Lewis.
Amid whispers and speculation regarding his sparse appearances, Lewis has graced the track only once out of eight race days, securing a single victory.
Despite being scheduled to compete in several subsequent events, based on Overnight programmes, Lewis has been notably unable to take up his riding commitments.
While the official explanation for his absence remains undisclosed, racetrack rumors hint at a blend of recuperation from a late-year injury and challenges with meeting weight requirements.
Attention is now riveted on the upcoming Saturday race card, where Lewis is slated to make a notable return. He is scheduled to guide Positive ID, trained by Michael Marlowe, in an Overnight Allowance race over a mile's distance.
The racing community eagerly awaits Lewis's return to the saddle, with high expectations for his performance on February 10.
