Very much agree with OP and I think part of the problem lies with Gavin Sheehan and his all too frequent tendency to lose the plot when riding a fancied Greatrex horse in a big race. Western Ryder should've finished placed at least in the Festival bumper but Sheehan chose to take the brave man's route on the inside where he was continually squeezed for room and baulked by the other runners. As has already been mentioned, the ride given to La Bague Au Roi was just as poor and ill judged.
Only Fry and Pauling did a decent job of flying the flag for the new wave of high flying young trainers at Cheltenham last week. The likes of Skelton, Longsdon, Mulholland and Greatrex all went AWOL. |

Did not know Gordon Elliott worked for Paul Nichols ,and Paul gave him his first big Winner , Silver Birch
Talking of skullduggery ,Norwich and Bravefoot ...what was the final outcome there ? never really became known who was really behind it Backed them both  thort it was finding money in the street  if it was not the books behind it who else would bother and why ? there was no exchange to blame back then ,only layers were the books. |

I agree entirely about Greatex could not train Ivy Up A Wall how does he get Owners,But even worse Jonjo O’Neill always got that false laugh when interviewed but a smiling sneaky assassin to punters has had two warnings already but still pulling strokes except for JP when the money is down,The gutless BHA are to frightened to take the big men on so **** the little punter who after all only put 85% into racing.But these crooks will in the end ruin racing.

To be fair guys like Paul Nolan are nigh on avoidable as they will have only a half dozen favourites a year, whereas the likes of greatrex has that many in a week . Jon Joe is another enigma in that you can't back his horses with confidence, for many reasons. Jon Joe Ha - like certain Irish pay masters - who like throwing curved balls - at least every other day |
