Want?? What u write.

Accepting......... u don`t have to point anything out for me if Murphy does not make it...... that is a gimme, but u feel u have to write paragraphs about stuff that guy`s like myself know what can happen when things don`t work out for jockey`s.

But this kid is different, I`m sure of it......... I know I`m saying a bold statement but that`s what I think....... end of

Yes easygold, accepting what I said about jockeys once they lose their claim and now you are trying to kid yourself and everyone else (and failing miserably too) that you knew all along that some apprentices can find it hard in the early stages when having to ride off levels.

I mentioned the most recent post about "all knowing" Marcce as I thought it was a given that you had previously accused me of trying to suggest I was in the know when I read in Fallon's Weekender column that he liked a horse called Nargys and so I said on here I know he thinks a bit of the horse or words to that effect (because I read them in his column) yet you accused me of trying to make out I was in the know then when I did no such thing and quite happily said I'd read it in his column.

That's why I only referred this time to your latest "all knowing" comment and I don't know about you but to me that phrase means knowing what is going on/being in the know. You might think I have taken differently your interpretation of how you meant the words but that's hardly my fault when they can have more than one meaning but at least I've gone by your actual words, as opposed to you and other getting the gist of what I've said but not my actually words.

Apart from anything else, you haven't even shown it not to be true about Fallon and the ride on Rizeena. Probably due to once again getting the gist of what I said and not the actual words, which were "Kieren Fallon has ridden a fair amount for Brittain this season and was in the frame but he goes to Ascot instead" so please feel free to prove any of that wrong. The source of the story termed it as "...while Kieren Fallon, who was linked with the ride on Tuesday, heads to Ascot" to which you replied rather patronisingly (a bit like your "Dearie me" comment too)

"Fallon in the frame for Rizeena? So which one of the rides in a 9 grand maiden and three 9 grand handicaps at Ascot tempted him there ahead of one with a decent chance in a 113 grand Group 1 at Newmarket then which forced them to "settle" for Peslier instead

and once again making a massive assumption as who said other rides tempted him to Ascot? What if he was due to go there for a Godolphin runner that got pulled out late and because of that Brittain turned to Peslier? Or any other reason you aren't "all knowing" about or "in the know" so it's a pity that in trying to be a clever d1ck you didn't consider any of that eh? Er.

I love your hypocrisy and double standards too when a while ago I pointed out the winners had dried up for Murphy and you condemned me for making that judgement 4 days after losing his claim (even though I was on about his previous 100 or so rides) and yet here you are a few more days on going on about the 3 winners in a week he's had since losing his claim as if that confirms anything. Then add in you number crunching manipulation about 3 winner every week, well he hasn't had 3 winners every week since losing his claim so that's a moot point anyway....Add to that again that one of those winners was against fellow apprentices which won't be the case for much longer either.

I also love being told "Symptomatic of your urge to always be right" and "rather than spending time on here every day writing 10,000 words a day" by someone who is guilty of both and that hypocrisy and lack of self-awareness can only be laughed at really.

Oh and it occurs to me that you have made yet another massive assumption when you state:

It occurs to me that it's a massive assumption on your part that it's just been his claim that has led to trainers going for him.

because I've said no such thing (why do I tend to type these same words a lot with you and easygold, do you both struggle with basic English or something?) and all I said was with his claim he has something extra to offer trainers that he won't when he loses it, so how that gets processed in your head as me supposedly saying "...it's just been his claim that has led to trainers going for him" is beyond me but I'm sure it must somehow makes sense within your head anyway.

I now know you actually do have trouble retaining information (are you and easygold related by any chance?) because I yet again am having to correct you over the 50 winners for Fallon mark even though I did it at the time and have done so several times since when you still fail to take in what I was saying. Print it off if you are struggling and then you can refer to it before making the same mistake all over again. So anyway, once more here is exactly what I said on him reaching 50 winners last season. When that happened I flagged it up and said from the way so many were writing him off and saying he was gone at the game, I was surprised to see he had even hit 50 as from the way some were going on you would have thought he was in single figures....Now read that back a few times or maybe get someone else to explain it to you instead eh?...Although preferably not easygold!

Once more I'm also having to repeat a counter to other points you've made about Fallon and of course his numbers had dropped considering the jobs he previously had and the fact when he came back he went all out for the jockey title but could only get 3rd and realised that wasn't an option any more. I told you that the last time you brought up that meaningless point and now I've just told you again. When he finished 3rd in the jockey table he had 933 rides and last season only had 538 and shock horror his number of winners was down on that, who'd have thought it eh?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that now Hanagan and SDS are no longer chasing the title either that their winners totals have gone down too and I'm really going to go wild now and push the boat out and suggest the same applies to Dettori also, now he's not been going all over the country chasing winners in an attempt to win the title too.

Yes Fallon's been getting on better horses this year but better still doesn't mean best so by merely getting on better quality doesn't have to mean more winners and once again SDS and Hanagan have shown that too. It can also mean instead of going to a meeting to ride 6 lower grade horses where 1 or 2 might have a chance of winning, they go to another course for say 3-4 rides instead where the horses might be better quality but so is the opposition and they can be far more competitive races too.

As for your laughably ridiculous comment about opinions are measured by profit and loss I'm embarrassed for you here as even if I thought Fallon was the best jockey riding today, what's that got to do with my profit and loss?

Oh and just to point out an example of what I've been alluding to regarding Oisin Murphy, he was beaten by a neck in first at Chester by a 5lb claimer that had Murphy been able to claim 3lbs probably would have seen him win or if the other jockey was riding off levels the same as Murphy.

Forgot to add that you seem to have got a bit mixed up between Murphy and Kingscote at Chester though no doubt you'll now try to argue that it was actually Murphy riding it.

Rode out his claim the other day and was looking a shoo in for the apprentices title a while back but I can even see him losing that now too once the better rides dry up and the 5lb and 3lb claimers take the ones he might have been on before.

This season won't be that crucial anyway as he will still get some favourable carry over during it but next season will be crunch time when riding off levels against the big boys from the start of the season and I fear for him a little now as he seems a nice kid but he rode that claim out far too quickly for his own good and I'm surprised Andrew Balding didn't do a bit more to prevent that.

Never, ever let anyone say ima didn't know his stuff. I mean, what the hell was Balding doing letting him ride out that claim so quickly? Totally ruined Murphy's career.
