R.HILLS

c'mon he's 49 and de souza 28; that was the difference obviously.
good, positive ride TBF and you knew the aforementioned BEFORE the race and had every chance IR to 'get out' if need be.

Was a good ride BUT so so so soooooooooooooo weak in the finish. Looked every inch of a 48 year old right there.

I'M Still seeting over Mondays ride @Leicester.....the mans finished washed up

making a fortune, both ways; like to be a million behind him.
some of his recent defeats beggar belief and w haggas always seems to be involved, both ways!

3 wins and 9 places from 15 rides

not bad for an old geezer

2.40 Mokbil

only one ride today

saving his strength

virgin (long may you remain one!) the same rides with richard hughes/ryan moore on; not bad for an old geezer, any pensioner should be able to sit on floating birds; age beats us all and, realistically, RH is past his 'sell-by' date and a few are cleaning up laying his mounts.
by my reckoning he's the second oldest jockey in the english weighing room.

ON FRIDAY HE  RODE TAWASUUL BEHIND PRICELESS JEWEL AT NEWBURY IF YOU GET CHANCE WATCH IT AGAIN .....REG HOLLINSHEAD GOT FINED £1,000 AT HUNTINGDON FOR SCHOOLING LAST WINTER............THAT JOKE OF A JOCKEY DOES IT 30 TIMES EVERY FLAT SEASON...........TRUST ME HE WONT BE THERE RIDING EM NEXT YEAR ,THEYVE HAD ENOUGH ,HE,LL RETIRE BEFORE HES PUSHED

CASHLESS-LOOKING GOOD

backed that one as well ....  does seem to row mid air in last furlong when the horse wanted it more than Richard - agree very little strength of ride

'held up towards rear, ridden and headway over 1f out, chased winner inside final furlong, no impression' is the race comment from an expert; tell me sir are you disagreeing with professional people who are much more qualified than such as myself?
as long as 'hamdan' is happy...!

I BET THEM DOZEN TRAINERS THATS GOT HORSES WITH HAMDAN ,WHEN THEY REALISE THEYVE GOT A DECENT CHANCE OF WINNING ,THEY MUST CRINGE WHEN THEYVE GOT TO PUT THAT MUG UP

bruce4syth [didn't he do well ]

I think you're talking to me

I am not disagreeing with anyone

the above is my opinion

99% OF REPORTERS WOULDNT HAVE A JOB THE NEXT DAY IF THEY PUT IN PRINT THE .....TRUE DESCRIPTION OFF WHAT REALLEY IS HAPPENING ....THERE COWARDS AND HAVENT GOT THE NUTS OF THERE OWN CONVICTIONS OF PUTTING INTO PRINT EXACTLY WHAT HAS HAPPEND CAUSE THERE TOO BUSY COVERING THERE OWN CORNER,AND MAKING SURE THERE IN WORK THE NEXT DAY

[amatuer]

me not you CASHLESS-LOOKING GOOD

NO PROBS VIRGIN

but the 'in-running' comment CASHLESS, is it inaccurate?
'they' (race-readers)surely study several tapes before committing themselves to what goes down in print; are they feathering nests?
one such race-reader is jon neesom, a fastidious man when it comes to detail.
incidentally do you have any opinion of hills' ride on KAAFEL at leicester when 'the other hamdan horse' won, trained by william haggas?

I did not see a lot wrong with his ride on Tawaasul - it was making its debut, got outpaced mid race and then ran on when the penny dropped - I doubt Hamdan would appreciate his young horses being thrashed on debut ....

That said, he is a weak jockey and does look as if his time is up ....

The said man has been injured since he was a young age you can easily tell by the difficulty he has pushing one out or using the aircushion nasty whip thing it baffles me completely what is going on.
