im talking about towards end of his career, i remember it well, and i remember some very angry punters. The most blatant c heating non trying jock i have ever seen. Not just one ride, he used to do it on nearly all his rides.

A fine thread in the best traditions of the forum. Pandora - "nearly all his rides" and "towards the end of his career" is some claim. Do you have any examples in mind? Given your claim you probably need to choose your seasons carefully unless of course you are guessing

Big Issue - I may well know more about Mr Bradley than you or Mr Pandora does, and he is now a matter of public record. But my point was about the claim made by Pandora for "nearly all his rides" and "towards the end of his career". I was merely seeking examples from this period - if Pandora is as knowledgeable as he appears to claim, he should be able to throw up numerous examples, particularly from the second last season (being an "expert" he will know what that one was)

Blackbarn, you are right, I don't know him but I do know he got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. I doubt he got caught the only time he did this but perhaps he was just really unlucky.

Thanks for the "compliment" rm. Totally unwarranted, I was merely helping certain publishers as an "informed" advisor.
Do you have anything else of value to add to this "debate"?, Pandora will shortly be looking for "ben t" rides from the relevant season. You may be able to help
Hope you are well.

Met him once on the gallops at Lambourn on the morning that Suny Bay was running in the Hennessy that afternoon at Newbury. Was told that Bradley had already booked a table for the celebrations that evening at a local restaurant for 20 people.
We had gone to back Go Informal in the staying race beforehand (which won) and played the winnings up on Suny Bay. I was 19 at the time and we (a group of 4) had put the money together for the bets, I went to collect and never handled so many £50 notes in my life.
That's my lasting impression of Graham Bradley !
