Let me guess, he hit the front too soon in the 7:10 race?

There obviously must have been something wrong with that ride as it is Fallon after all!
Report Swardean • May 2, 2013 7:16 PM BST
Fallon getting plenty flack on here last couple of day but I really like Morrison runs when fresh.  Hopefully he can steer it home

So unusual to see Fallon on an easy winner, usually has to wind it up from a long way out.

Best flat jockey around
Report differentdrum • May 4, 2013 3:36 PM BST
Nearly made a complete mess of that - why showboat and win by a short head rather than half a length. Tipped up Hippy Hippy Shake this morning presumably a four-timer already in the bag?

time to do the old hippy shake in the next!!

A slice of bread maybe for certain people to wipe the egg off their faces? Silly

As for being back well he never went away (except maybe when he was banned lol) he just wasn't getting the rides but still showed with his 2 Gr1 wins last season that he can still deliver.

hope they pile in to the hippie next race
i like the balding horse so hopefully will get a decent price

Yes he is so good that he is riding at a gaffe meeting the day of the 2000 guineas. All the top jockeys are at Goodwood and Thirsk today.

I can assure you nellie1970 that this thread hasn't been the only place people have commented on Fallon in.

So are owners and trainers supposed to elbow out their retained jockey just to give Fallon the ride jimeen?
Report nellie1970 • May 4, 2013 3:46 PM BST
well on the other threads i have questioned his ability but his ability to arrive on time or arrive at all

There are plenty of horses running today,including the 2000 guineas who are ridden by jockeys who are not retained.

Sometimes even the good jockies don't know the winners until they're past the finishing post Cry

Good effort today though Fallon
Report ima_mazed66 • May 4, 2013 4:18 PM BST
Sh1t jockey. Silly

I expect he knows the Cumani one more than any of the others which limits his knowledge of the others so he's naturally going to go for a horse he feels better able to assess. That doesn't make it a winner though, nor the others losers as evidenced by things today.
Report jimeen • May 4, 2013 4:37 PM BST
So why did he tip up his horse if he didnt know anything about the opposition?
Report ima_mazed66 • May 4, 2013 4:46 PM BST
I assume he was asked what he thought his best chance was of having a winner was and apart from best chance doesn't mean it's an automatic winner, if the others are for outside stables and he has more knowledge of the ones he rides at home, then that narrows his options and you would expect him to pick the ones he is more familiar with.

Imagine the furore and accusations of putting punters away if he tipped an outside stable loser and then won on a Cumani horse.

It doesn't really matter with Fallon though as it's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't because for many their minds are already made up regardless.
Report jimeen • May 4, 2013 4:50 PM BST
What you are saying is that he should have said,"i havent a clue about some of my rides,the one i ride for Cumani i do know about but i dont know anything about the opposition,in other words i dont have a clue about anything"

A bit off sun and he's come into his coat.
Report ima_mazed66 • May 4, 2013 4:56 PM BST
Er no jimeen, what I'm saying is if he was asked what he thought was his best chance of a winner then even if he thought he would draw a blank on the day, he still must have one that he think is his best chance and presumably he assesses that based on what he knows and not what he doesn't know.
