JJ Slevin will be the new retained rider for Simon Munir and Isaac Souede following Daryl Jacob's retirement.
It comes after Jacob, 41, hung up his riding boots this week after 11 years as the retained rider for Munir and Souede, whose horses run in familiar double green colours.READ MORE: Gordon Elliott secures landmark win with The Enabler at Leopardstown "JJ has ridden many of our horses in the past, including our Irish Grand National winner Intense Raffles. With Daryl's retirement, this is a natural progression, JJ having often deputised in the past for Daryl in his absence."We look forward to a long, successful association with JJ and welcome him to Team Double Green."
After suffering a horrific foot injury in October, Slevin returned to action over the Christmas period and enjoyed two Grade 1 victories for O'Brien.
