Queensland jockey Aaron Bullock has been replaced on the Magic Millions Classic favourite Jonker despite being unbeaten on the potential star 2YO.
Aaron Bullock has ridden the 2YO son of Spirit Of Boom twice for two wins including an impressive win in the Wyong Magic Millions Classic last week but will be replaced in the $2million dollar race by Hugh Bowman.
Hugh Bowman was awarded the Longines World’s Best Jockey award late November and will look to kick off 2018 with a win in one of the richest races on the Australian calendar at the Gold Coast.

Jockey Aaron Bullock has won the two starts on Jonker including last Thursday’s Wyong @mmsnippets Classic. Trainer Dave Atkins says it’s a case you can’t ignore @HugeBowman when he’s sitting there without a ride in the @GCTurfClub race.

Aaron Bullock tells Magic Millions he accepts the decision of connections of Jonker and wishes them the best on January 13. “Things like this happen in this game. There’s no hard feelings and I hope to keep riding plenty of winners.”#RoadToMagicMillions
