JOSEPH

You'd have thought they would have learnt from a virtually identical ride last year, imo...

misjudgement...he should have moved earlier, but he is only a teenager!

Bridle, Bridle, Bride, Bridle, Straight to the whip and thrashing it.

Tactically inept, as he often is.

riding to orders , the same as every jockey from spencer through to joseph who have rode from the yard

Whip ban me thinks. 12 hits imo from about the 2 pole.

As Rodway said, from sitting pretty to panic stations.

One of the worst rides I have ever seen and i think the kid is decent.


It was the straight to the whip action that got my goat, Like watching amateur handicap ride at Southwell

Good horseman I think but not the best tactician.

dropped it out too much, very amateur ride.

He rides all horses the same way. Drops them too far back and gives them too much to do. Camelot got him out of jail in the Derby. Dan Chipowski is bang on - tactically inept. For the record, I did not bet it.

Some bollocks on here.Nothing wrong with ride.Didnt pick up in ground.Needs a road to be at best.

Ryan Moore nearly as far back ffs, at least Joseph didn't get caught behind a wall of horses.

teflon,  ahem, but he did pick up...he made giant strides in the last furlong, just left too much to do. Tactically inept. He is used to riding odds on favs. Btw, I won on the race.

themightymac. to orders they have adopted the same tactics  not the jockey the set up at ballydoylefor years and i doubt if they will change . he didn't get caught behind a wall of horses just ran up the back of one when challengung

7 days

Had the ground been firm St Nic would have been much closer.Went past beaten horses in the straight.Ran a solid race on the ground.

Horse was NEVER given a chance to win.  The poor ride nothing to do with the ground conditions.  He did the same at Meydan earlier in the yr on the same horse.

Would've loved to hear what his first words were to dad. I remember at the Curragh a few people heard him say 'I messed up' when he gave the horse too much to do and dad telling him 'keep your mouth shut'.

a woeful ride on the horse again the man has no judge of pace or timing and seems to get psyched out on some of the big days a johnny murtagh he is not and never will be

What utter tosh.
