Fallon takes over the reins at Ballydoyle
His appointment comes on the back of weeks of intense speculation following the shock resignation of Jamie Spencer, who quit his post with Aidan O’Brien earlier this month after just one season in the hot seat.
Confirming the new appointment, a Coolmore press release said: “Owners John Magnier, Michael Tabor and Derrick Smith are delighted to announce that Kieren Fallon will be the retained jockey for the horses at Ballydoyle and elsewhere for the 2005 season.”
