Appears to have only got coverage for one event - cheating. I couldn't find any reliable sources to prove he was notable for winning a notable horse race in Dubai. Boleyn (talk) 17:30, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

- Delete Notability is not inherited from his cousin and all of the sources concern his suspension so WP:BLP1E applies. Jakejr (talk) 13:25, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
- Delete - Non-notable jockey. There is no specific notability guideline for horse-racing, and therefore horses and jockeys must satisfy the general notability guidelines per WP:GNG to qualify for inclusion as a stand-alone Wikipedia article. Coverage of the subject is insufficient to satisfy GNG -- no in-depth coverage in multiple, independent, reliable sources, and what nominal coverage there is seems to be limited to his suspension in the UK (a probable WP:BLP1E exception, as others have noted).
