Sometimes you just have to sit and shake your head in utter disbelief at what you have just seen. That was one of those occasions.
This is National hunt for you
Half the field can? and wont....have the field cant and dont

And they want more young people to come racing...............
Johnny Ward will give it an authentic write-up as he did Majestic Benbulben.
The trainer gets a winner as often as royal baby is born.What do they be messing around for? Most likely story is he saw there was an even money shot this morning and chickened out..
Only his second time over the jumps. Took a while to get the hang of it and looks like a sure fire future winner, maybe Galway .
The exceptional part is you could make a case for that winning 15 lengths.
Galway?? no chance to win a maiden hurdle there?? are you for real
Liked the move to the inside over the last when horse was pulling to the leaders
Would have to question same jockey "losing iron" in previous run, must check the video
The way the race played out was a nightmare for connections.
He must be a tidy apprentice to conjure a losing move on that without standing up in saddle and yanking it back.

Will be a maiden this time next year.....Just wait and see.
Easy gold, don't see why this wouldn't have a chance to win a maiden in Galway. This was a decent maiden. The second was a highly rated horse on the flat and not so long ago finished 3 lengths off Camelot. Massini's is obviously in good nick and you need to be at your peak to win in Galway. I'm not saying he's a good thing to win there but being a strong finisher here off a strong pace I think he might get a good pace at Galway with a stiff uphill finish.
Looks ten times worse on the head-on. Darrell the anker has got it in his notebook.
Em, there is only a couple of maiden hurdle races at the festival, and you need a better horse than this fellow to win around there. And this race is a very poor contest (the winner made five errors and still won) and NEVER take ratings on the flat and bring them to N.Hunt NEVER.
if there is something dodgy going on here its because its being saved for another day, what i don't understand is it was clearly ready today and at a huge price. 90 sp on BF i think? so why not smash it into 20-1 and make a fortune. becaus eyou know this beast will be 5-4 fav NTO. bl00dy irish huh?
You're probably right Easy , maybe Tramore in August would be an easier target with a run down the field in Galway to erase the memory of this one.
Massinis Trap * 486.00 10.00 Back -10.00
it's a shame it didn't win

you should have been trading for anice profit there rcing, as should i have been. But it was bent, what can you do?
keefter , i dont think it traded below 40
plus by the time he came into picture at the end of the race the suspend sign appeared

Truly sickening to watch that. Horse could have won 20l+
Massinis Trap wouldn't win a maiden hurdle in Galway in a thousand years,that was the worst race ever run .

Jockey hung out to dry for following orders.
well he should have either refuse dthe ride after getting the orders in that case or ignored them.
Should have given it a gallop over here.
Stewards would have seen nothing.

He has had 2 rides in the last 6 months. That 50 day ban will be a right killer for him
Wonder how many days if it was one of the senior jockeys

trainer lets the young lad take the punishment.
hope they take care of him.

No one should complain about punishment, it's only a pity that bigger fish aren't treated in similar fashion.
How many days did BM Cash get for his ride on MB last week ?
Pity the Sligo stewards couldn't dish out the same to Cash - practically the same offence.
That is a shocking ban given the performance by The Misses Mangan and Walsh a few weeks back when they let one go miles off in front. Poor judgement by the lad which is no different from their performances IMO. As we have come to expect , consistency doesn't seem to apply from one day to the next.
how many times a mcoy/ oneill horse tailed off, beaten dist, pulled up, then wins at 2/1 fav.
yes jefka even worse the 2nd that night won last night cull royal. I bloody backed him that night
must be a poor trainer to not have known the ability of the horse , and to have run it as a non jigger .
if i was the owner i would be fuming , could have had a nice touch at a big price , or at least had a go .

Little fish are sweet and the olde boys club are seen to be doing their job.They wont ever haul in a shark because they have no interest in the big boys........
It is good to see stewards taking action. However it is always the small man
Massini's Trap (IRE) 11-2 T E Doran (7) J Nash 4 25/1
held up towards rear, moderate 7th travelling fine 2 out, moderate 5th at last and late headway run-in, kept on well under tender handling on inner

Massini's Trap (IRE) 25/1 4 10-9 J A Nash — —
Thomas Doran7
Held up in rear, remote 8th before 2 out, went 6th between last 2 and still plenty to do travelling well in moderate 5th before last, stayed on strongly without threatening principals, nearest finish
ANALYSIS
--------
The run ofMassini´s Trap caught many an eye, including that of the stewards. His rider only got after the strong traveller in the closing stages and he flashed home, albeit all too late.
Irrespective of what one thinks, this suggests that the four-year-old is finally going to build on his debut run in a 1m maiden last year.
