ruby got that wrong

he made a balls of that..........didnt get up the inside and had to switch

Ruby lost that race not Annie Power, ruby had her way too far back the whole way then went inside outside then between horses for no good reason whatsoever other than trying to showboat, Ruby beat the horse by messing about......mans an idiot.

plenty of time, stick to doing your peices on Pricewise Ash

Must have lost a length or two weaving about but was beaten fair and square in the end

Best horse won. Walsh did nothing wrong.

winner wanted it more

Nah, both came to the last taking a pull, soon as they jumped it in unison Annie didn't have the pace to live with that beast.

Baffling thread. Produced to win her race and just patently outstayed by a better horse up the hill.

just not good enough she was keen enough but just not good enough

having seen the replay im backing down here..............horse wasnt good enough

best horse won!

so many armchair jockeys on here

winner is a seriously good horse, could be a Gold Cup horse in a couple of years.

not like she was closing him down at the end - and she was getting 7lbs.

Bullshit. She hit the front ffs. She got out battles and outstayed.

Beaten by a stronger stayer. Ruby gave her a good ride.

This. Had every chance, beaten by a better one.

If she got involved earlier, she'd have finished even further behind the winner.

No excuses ap simply not good enough. Simple as that.

nice to see him admit his mistake; top jockey imo

ruby just confirmed it.

what did he say? Missed it

Wonder if any of the posters that said he done nout wrong will be as big as Ruby and hold their hands up this time

Like I wrote earlier and ruby just admitted....

So many clueless muppets on here.....forum full of losers who cant even see a bad ride when it kicks them in the face.

You forgot the bit where he said more of that found pleanty and she definitely stayed if she was good enough she would of beat him had every chance

Don't think it was a great ride basil but was still beaten by the better horse imo

Anyone who says Ruby got it wrong is only doing so with hindsight and he cant make his decisions with that.
He tracked Big Bucks as would have made sense at the off. As soon as BB in trouble he swtiched and tracked McManus number 1.
That didnt work either.
More Of That was as certain to stay as Annie power so took her on at th elast.
It may have gone wrong but no way of knowing that when he made the moves!
Great decisive riding that deserved better

You guys know nothing about race watching or you would have known Ruby messed up, you are embarrassing.

Exactly that's what ruby said aswel he followed the wrong horse afc

Good summary culdesac.  He reacted to the changing complexion of the race and all he was guilty of was underestimating More Than That, and he's hardly alone in that.

Would have been outstayed by the winner whatever he had done, imo.

he was still following the wrong horse at the end and would have been following him if they'd gone another furlong...only he'd have been further behind by then....it's not a computer game, for wrong read better.

Beaten nearly two lengths, not a head, a neck,a nose, a short head.

Where did he lose ground that cost him the race?

I did n't back the winner but he looks completely the real deal to me and will go on to prove it.

Shame Ruby doesn't read the forum so that all these armchair jocks here could teach him how to ride winners.

not fair .......wiv all them other horses in the way

Would of won the Champion

Too slow for the Champion on that showing.

great interview but  ruby is being to hard on himself

First time she has got into a battle, and the winner had Bob`s Worth battling qualities.

She ran a fine race all in all. The winner is a tough nut to crack and shouldn`t be underrated.

there was only one horse that should of won the champion and thats the new one... after what happened to do what he did marks him as diff class...

daft as a brush... there's only one idiot on here

The horse was put into the race with every chance, you can't ask for more than that.
She didn't come too late and she didn't go too soon.
She had every chance.

I see McCoy was on the wrong horse again.

half full, half empty here; I do think that RW did not ride the best of tactics in the closing stages and I think his seemingly post-race rather deflated comments reinforce this view; mind you, the winner loooooooooooooked rather competent and large in the strength stakes so Chelt 15 for me is back both at the different disciplines.
