Maxime Guyon to ride for Wertheimer Brothers
Thursday 16 October 2014 12:05, UK
Leading French jockey Maxime Guyon has been appointed retained rider for the Wertheimer brothers from next season.
Guyon has secured multiple Group One victories already in his relatively short career, during which he has principally ridden for legendary French trainer Andre Fabre.
The jockey has signed a four-year contract with the Wertheimers.
Pierre Yves-Bureau, racing manager for the owners, said: "It is correct that Maxime will ride for us from next year and, of course, we are very happy.
"We hope it will be a very good partnership in the coming years."
It was revealed earlier this month Olivier Peslier would not be kept on to ride for the Wertheimers again in 2015 following a hugely successful 12-year association.
During that time, Peslier partnered the incomparable mare Goldikova to a staggering 14 Group One victories, including a hat-trick of successes in the Breeders' Cup Mile.
