JM has been dire this year imo getting into all sorts of trouble when he is riding off the pace. Rode a few good races up with the pace tho so Im starting to think he is becoming one dimensional

Fav had a lot of hard races last year and didn't seem to be mad about racing to me, Murtagh was probably trying to nurse him around a bit, one to be wary of. In any case the Weld horse should have won.

he was just educating and nursing the horse. didn't want to give it a hard time first time up. nothing new, he was doing the same last year, remember chester.

it's not that he wasn't trying, he was just thinking long-term, wants the horse to enjoy his racing rather than giving him a hard time to get the money.

he'll come on leaps and bounds for that run.

FFS he didnt take a pull. He gave it a mistimed or simply a $hit ride

i don't agree. horse didn't pick up straight away. defo needs further/stronger pace. i think O'Brien will be happy with that performance.

I don't think there's any doubt that O'brien will be pleased with the race.
Report DAN1974 April 18, 2010 4:37 PM BST
jockey and trainer are happy with the run, punter gets shafted, has this happened before?
Report ReaseHeath April 18, 2010 4:41 PM BST
thought the horse spooked itself a bit when it came with the initial burst and did n't want to go through with it, then he righted himself and ran on again.

Clearly a nice animal - not too surprising an effort from an inexperienced horse.

Would n't blame the jockey myself but can see how some would see it that way.
