In fairness, what sort of half witt owner would have put a bird on it, when Dickie Johnson didnt have a bloody ride. Ridiculous.

She gave it a complete mug of a ride in fairness.

Why not put the 2nd best jockey in the land on it?

JUst my opinion chaps. Poor ride

Still pulling double 3 out, making no visible effort whatsoever.

Totally agree Sir

terrific ride imo. nursed it all the way round and would have definitely made the frame had the horse not run out of gas after the last

and I backed it
Report Sir_Talbot April 10, 2010 4:58 PM BST
Giving it a cheeky slap down the neck at the last - well done girl, you got round, big effing deal...I was on each way 5 places.

Stick a bloke on it who might make an effort - would rather go out of the race at the 1st than accept that bloody ride. Ridiculous.

She never once put the horse into the race at any time , the only reason it stayed on was the fact so many had fallen .
Poor ride , i did back the horse ante at 33/1 , but after half a mile i new she was only inerested in completing the course and looking for a place at best .
Lack of courage !

On a horse with a chance, maybe she should have followed AP or Geraghty a bit closer. Not**ging her off coz i think she is a great rider, but was a long long way off with a mile to run. She will learn from that no doubt.

As long as she learns thats all that matters LOL , what about all us that had got stuck into a horse that was never given a chane .
She could of had several " kit kats and a bottle of Cream soda riding that horse and still not riden it that bad .
Bet the new owners are well chuffed at her just making sure the horse got round .

Left her horse a lot to do I thought.
Report pete_de April 10, 2010 8:57 PM BST
I had 25/1 e/w IST SIX very poor ride and did look as if only interested in completing , in saying that the last time you saw her coming to the last looked sure to be 5th and could not believe it when passed the post 7th

Is she better than Jamie Codd who rode him to win at Cheltenham last year? Disgraceful to replace him with Nina
Report vinnie_roe April 10, 2010 9:10 PM BST
Watched it again on ruk, the horse looked certain to be placed but didn't get home.The tactics she used gave the horse the best chance to stay.
Report morella April 10, 2010 10:30 PM BST
Vinne take another look at her gasping for air after crossing the line .
No other jockey was gasping like Nina . She wasn't fit enough for the ride .
The connections who recently brought the horse must be livid at putting her up now . She took care of herself throughout the race , her only aim was to complete the course and sneak a place .
Report Richard Cranium April 10, 2010 10:32 PM BST
Serves the connections right imo.
Report morella April 10, 2010 10:40 PM BST
Sucks for punters who backed the horse feeling Codd who got on well with the horse was on board .
Same as when Fantasia was bought by Strawbridge last year and then missed the 1000 guineas .
These late ownership changes sure can balls the best laid plans up .

Spot on and I don't think she was the only one who thought the front few had gone too quickly - nearly half a minute quicker than 09. Even if that was the right decision the horse was still losing ground at the business end

The young lad was brilliant on the horse. He attacked every fence. He looked very competent to me he deserved a place but the horse got tired two out.

And he( STD ) held on for the 5th place which was very nice for a lot of people.. It was a good combination.

gave the horse a good ride imo opinion and it might have placed if stamina hadnt gave out after the last,wish it had got 3rd i would have had the tricast then!!!!
Report santa concerto April 11, 2010 10:32 AM BST
to be fair i heard the horse had to be given oxygen as it was nearly going to collapse so now you know why nina didnt go really hard on him. if she had of done the poor horse might well have died. im sure nina was aware he wasnt strong an thats why she cared for him. theirs nothing a carberry doesnt know about horses so theres your answer.
