Jay Ford has seen the light...Yes, Sydney's quiet achiever says he'll happily face a tough, demanding week of wasting to ride Brilliant Light in Sat's Grp 1 Doncaster Mile. Ford will ride the Kerry Parker-trained gelding at 51kgs in the Doncaster and trimming down will mean strict dieting and exercise. He says: 'It's certainly worth the effort...I'll make sure I get down to 51. I've known the ride was there for a while now, it was just a matter of getting the horse into the field....He's in now
