Thats the worst hurdle in racing, downhill on landing, poor deckie.

By:
it would have won easily

Useless, useless, useless. Time to retire.

did u not think banahan at that tricky final flight he was a bit gung ho
|
|
By:
Pretty sure he let go of reins or they slipped out.
|
|
By:
if he had just popped over the last he would have won.
He did not take a tug this time. ![]() |

By:
He gives you no confidence with his habit of hitting the flights , he needs to improve his hands somehow.

Thought Johnson was out ridden by Walsh in the last race and now can't steer home a sure fire winner. Not often i slate a jockey but i've disliked him since he gave Planet of Sound a howler in the Grand National

By:
anyone have the full result

By:
I expect he was worried that if he tried to "pop it" he'd be slagged off for not riding him into the last by all you armchair experts.
Poor lad can't win. ![]() |

Had a nice bet on that,traded out,but no profit. Gutted

zaynar, just watched it 4 times and the reins did lengthen when he encouraged to jump the last,not sure whether it was because the horse put down but something was not quite right.

So if he takes a pull loses momentum and gets caught on the run in-What Would You All Be Saying Then.

Surely though FB, there is a time and place to pop and a time and place to ask for big one. Even us "Armchair experts" are allowed an opinion ![]() |

Did you like him prior to that ? Like for the previous 18 years of his career ? |
|
By:
Forgive me,DJ but your "opinion" usually seems to depend on which one you have backed.

At no time, was johnson in control of his mount in the 100 yards before the final hurdle. If he was mine, i'd wouldn't let him near my horse.

Plenty of good jockeys, plenty of poor ones as is life. I'm not criticising Dickies ability as a jockey. I am stating I thought he made a mistake in asking for a big jump when one imho was not needed. |

By:
Horse seemed to jink away to right twice before last unbalanced surely should have just been sat on rather than a panicky throw into the last ?

Sure if racing was as easy as stats, we'd be all rich eh ![]() |
