No Spencer theads?

Do you know what I did not want to respond to your post but let me say this joke of a horseman has  left me wondering how and why he is still riding, either the trainers know he will not put the horse in the race make it impossible to win with giving them all the excuses in the world as to why the horse never ran up to form.
I do watch a lot of racing most days and I see good horsemen ( I won't call them jockeys as most are not up to it) but far to many really bad rides given to horses with reasonable form.
The jockey club should be seen to be doing something about this but I seems they are not interested for one reason or another.
It will be a day to celebrate when he hangs up his boots, hopefully throws them in the bin and never rides a horse again.
Rant over

made the mistake of backing him for a place on a 7/4 fav and he couldn't even manage that!

I didn't see they race, but I imagine he used his famous hold up tactics.
