Well, if you looked at the race you'd see that her horse was tiring and was in the process of being overtaken by most of the field when it tripped/slipped and went head first into the dirt. To win from that position is quite difficult, so I guess that's how! If you can't figure that out for yourself, then I would be fairly confident in saying that it is you that is probably incompetent. bottlejobs & Gay Icon.... more absolutely nonsensical comments |

To the last two posters.....
The race her mount slipped up in was NOT the last race, it was the 5.05. Comments such as "caught kipping when the quickened" or "Utterly useless. On the worst of the ground all the way. Only got busy when the winner went by" were in relation to her ride in the 5.35. |

OOPS! Thanks john92
Thought from earlier posts we were talking about the 17:05. The OP did say "hope she gets up from that" (and it was posted at 17:11!) While the comments make more sense now, I still completely disagree with them. |

By:
She is going to be the best lady rider of all time.
She has everything balance strength and is tactically aware,all that can stop her is losing interest. |

It can't be denied that at Cheltenham she gave her mount a great ride until the incident at the final fence. She looked confident and professional, she took the shortest way round and the horse looked settled and clearly had plenty left in the tank.
Now, in my opinion, there are a number of factors involved in the final fence incident. 1/ She should have brought her mount further away from the rail to avoid the horse being spooked by the crowd, if indeed that is what happened. 2/ The horse looked capable of going round again and was happy to head that way. 3/ If indeed, in transferring her whip at that time, disorientated her mount, that was a bad mistake. She will learn through this and I hope she comes back even better. |
