He jumped off,he really did

He did!

i think he did aswell

wud u jump off a horse at 35mph??!

if I wasn't jumping id at least try and stay on kavvie!! did he? nope

These pricks have never sat on one let alone jump off,Kavvie.
He lost his balance,end of debate.

no I wouldn't but having seen this get the feeling this guy would

Depends how much money I was offered and its probably not doing 35..

I wouldn't even get on a horse.But I bowl pretty fast.

strange just before he came off he took a good look to see what was around him and was it safe

Kavvie, it all depends how much I had been offered to jump off the horse at 35mph!

that was unreal,he lifted his left leg up and jumped...

San Quentin, agree with your coment!

no,but he does,the more they show it,the worse it looks

doubt anything untoward happened there..if he didnt want it to win he wouldnt have it up there in first place..

I had backed it in-running at fancy prices so I agree...he jumped off

The perils of riding NH Horses with just your toes in suitably demonstrated.

if you seriously believe he lost his balance the only prick on here is you racingstar

Kavvie, he has to have it "up there" so it can be layed at low prices!

It looked bad, very bad.

atr should have interviewed him
explain it
falling off motionless
a very weak lady rider would not have fell off
i know these things happen but ive never seen one as bad as this

Rewired, I agree!

The BHA have to look into it and ask for an explanation!

that was disgraceful. The intent was there. No accident whatsoever

Betfair should void all bets on that horse so that nobody can profit from laying it at low prices, as the people that layed it low must have known "something" was going to happen!

drifted v badly at start
then short in running

just watched about 6 times  don't think I have seen anything as bad as that
lifted leg and bailed out

yeah I watched it a few times and it looked like he was trying to avoid a wet f@rt 

He did jump.... He was told Thommo was interviewing the winner....

who fkn jumped off who ?

The Stewards held an enquiry into the fall of Grant Cockburn, the rider of FLOGAROSE (FR), on the bend exiting the back straight. They interviewed the rider. Having heard his evidence and viewed recordings of the incident the Stewards noted his explanation that the mare had taken a step left towards the rails causing him to become unbalanced and unseated.

thanks delta

I was just about to back it inrunning as it looked the winner

I did back it in running

Then 20 seconds later he jumped off

Surely if he was looking to jump ship he would have kicked his other leg out of the stirrups and fell towards the inside of the track therefore avoiding being trampled on by the horses behind.

Stick up for jockeys by all means but do not try to defend that! He jumped off, 100%! ( not meant for you Uptheboro). You don't have to have ridden a horse to understand what was going on there. The horse was tanking along and he did  a " Barry Brogan".

who's barry brogan roy?

He was a seriously good jockey (NH) that by his own admission went bent. He wrote a book charting not only the great moments, but the crooked ones also. One particular time when ordered NOT to win by any means. Horse he was on bolted and was about to sluice in. He admitted to deliberately putting it wrong at second last (or thereabouts)and leaping off.

for those with good memories have a look back at Graham Bradley at Southwell many years ago in a 3 runner affair and if you can read his autobiograhy before you say anymore kavie/racingstar.

depends whose got hold of you by what piece of your anatomy whether you'd jump off one or not!

Correct!

what race are we talking about please i like to have a look

2-50 Sedge.

That was incredible. He didn't jump he just stepped off simple as that. The most blatant I've ever seen, how anyone can defend that I've no idea.

just watched this for first time (and rewound a few times just to be sure I'd seen with my own eyes!) and have to say it looked very poor and the least i would have expected was for stewards to refer the ride, unless they have some cameras on the inside which showed what exactly happened with his left leg leaving the stirrups but certainly from the normal camera angle it looked as if he jumped off.

and for all those who come on and say 'what do you know you've never ridden' or 'no way a jockey would intentionally fall or jump off', history shows that they do!  jeez, dermot browne lost a champion hurdle (sure the horse would have won) on his own horse, if that can happen then anything is possible

Flogarose hit 1.41 in-running.
Racing does itself no favours when stewards "note" the explanation without telling the betting public what happens next.

When stewards say, they "noted his explanation" rather than "accepted his explanation" thats pc talk for "We don't believe you!"
Needless to say the security dept will be looking for any unusual betting patterns and who was laying.

wish we could see that from another angle

You don't need to see it from another angle. He clearly meant it, and the reason given doesn't allign itself with the evidence. The horse didn't step to the side at all, and if it did he wouldn't have had the time to hop off.(seconds after he took a look behind). It also brings into question others in the race, as someone else(another jockey) could likely have been involved.

What race was this please il have a look. . . had no bet so il be unbiased.

sedge 2.50 yesterday

tar

Any jobs going as stewards???

Bloody hell the look round said it all . . . .No ive never ridden horse never want too but ive got a pair of things either side of my snout.

Unbelievable. funny it was the left foot (the blind side)

Touched a low of 1.57

Anyone know if he got out in one piece.
