Graham GIBBONS

Like someone had a gun to his head

Managed to Another Royal out when coming to challenge too  wac.

take^

yea that was the key for me taking out another royal put it of. Couldnt ask for more if u had ur cash down

But if u had AR like me u feel a bit done

true.

Once serious money's down on a horse you see the effing difference in the riding even whipped the sh it out of it to get it up into the lead at the start, takes out another horse and drives on it like a mad man. safe to say money was defiantly down on it.

Superb jockey

Good jockey aye, and obviously trusted him to bring home the cash by booking him. just a pity I laid the bloody thing

yea whne then moneys down theres not many better. I have thought that for a long time

you were saying

Horse drifts, Gibbo takes a jump!!

junped off

wtf???

That was very odd, drift and he fell off

Didn't look like he fell off...looked very poor

2.24 out to 3.4 told u all u needed 2 know

Got to love horse racing sometimes, Alpine Storm wins but we can rite that race off imo. See the difference in the rides though, Gibbons rides like a mad man on Centre and then that one there .

didnt look gd

Its funny when you see the ride on Centre and then that one, centre he whips it and drives it to the front, barges his rival out the way and gives it everything to win by 1/2l, the money was down.... this one drifted and he takes a dodgy looking tumble... doesn't give racing a very good name does it but we've come to expect it as die hard racing lovers.

Anyone who backed that must be in complete despair, that was rotten.

Dreadful on every level.  In addition to what took place in the race, where were the slow mo's & expert comments about the incident afterwards?  Hang your heads Racing UK.

Carlisle Replay on RUK now.

This race will be on in a few more minutes.

I backed that horse, good job I had a decent day or I would have been fuming.

ropes 100% correct.  The silence was deafening after the race.  NOT a whimper.  That looked very poor from Gibbons.  Looked like another Fox episode

ANALYSIS

A fair small-field 3yo handicap concluded the card, but it was an eventful race which produced an understandably modest comparative winning time.

ALPINE STORM took a strong hold on the lead in the formative stages of the contest, so much so that it appeared to unsettle Lilly Junior in second, who took a false step after 2f and unseated her rider Graham Gibbons. The loose horse lit up Alpine Storm even more for a brief period, but she settled down with about 3f remaining, and saw out the remainder of the journey in decent fashion for a ready win.

Incurs Four Faults has been in fine front-running form but made a slow awkward start on this occasion. It seemed likely that this race may still fall into his lap, once the two remaining runners settled down to fight it out with 3f remaining, but he finished a laboured second.

Perhaps GG was exhausted after putting so much effort in on Centre...?

a pro jock can not stay on board?..walofs...as rotten as ballinger ridge imo.
