Form is temporary. Remember all the threads on here over the years about Robbie Power. People saying how he had no drive, ambition, ability, wondering why he didn't go and do something else for a living.Suddenly, after 20 years in the saddle he became an overnight success and the same fellas are raving about how much he's improved lately! All because the arrival of one owner changed the quality of his rides.
Racing is a fickle game. Sooner or later a vacancy will arise somewhere and Cooper will get the call and everyone will assume he's riding much better lately again. |

Neill how did Geraghty do in that big handicap over fences at Kempton the other day?

Cooper has lost his bottle.but Neil d you are being very harsh on him. He was the second coming before the fall.
And I have to disagree with you about Russell. He is beyond pathetic. |

By:
He won, he's going to win some, but I don't think he's near the jock he was, thought he was windy as fck on Squatometer of Elliot's over Christmas among others in chases.
Robbie has gotten better, improved greatly. Cacique, I actually like the guy and posted on here months ago that if he goes to England full-time, he will be a huge success, maybe that is his plan, but he will never make it back here now. just have a sense he's gone, been spit out by the machine. Think he is entitled to feel aggrieved at how little support he has had from other trainers since being dropped. Whatever about what Russell does, he is an astonishing talent as a jockey. The only one who can go tot to toe with Walsh mentally. |

By:
Neil d, have to agree to disagree about Russell.
The quality of jockey, both flat and national hunt, these days is appalling! COOPER has the horse skills to take most of these jockeys to town in his pocket, but unfortunately his head is not in the game. |

Anyone describing Davy Russell as beyond pathetic surely isn’t worth engaging with. As far as I’m concerned, the very second you read that statement, then you can safely write that chaps opinion off forever.
As for Coopers head not being in the game, well surely that’s a prerequisite for any sportsman. There’s not much good being talented without the application. |

Good old Johnny, keeping it in the family I see, never a word from you when Davy makes a howler, yet you berate jockey after jockey on here day after day, how you can live with yourself is beyond me. A Hypocrite if ever there was one are you my friend.

By:
Wonker, it’s pointless me debating anything with you , as you keep coming out with the same old codswallop time after time .
|

By:
Tell me Johnny or even better SHOW me, ONE criticism of Davy by your good self and I'll apologise there's a good lad.
|
|
By:
I rarely criticise the top riders, and for that reason it would be hard for me to find evidence of being critical of the likes of Russell , Walsh , Moore , Smullen, Keane etc.
You on the other hand were the initiator of a legendary thread which criticised Ryan Moore . You showed exactly what kind of a numpty you are on that thread. |

By:
Says it all really doesn't it Johnny, Davy Never rode a bad race, and according to you neither did ANY of the above, so you didn't have to berate them even ONCE......

You really should be on the telly ...
I haven't laughed that much in years.... |

Davy Russell is not the best jockey around,
Besides he got sacked out of Murphy, then mick O'brien then o'leary, pattern? Awkward maybe. As for Cooper head in the game being a prerequisite I'm fairly sure Cooper is a much better horseman than most/all of the current jocks. He's been dealt a bad hand since he burst onto the screen at Cheltenham with the treble. But he should still ride most of the other jocks to sleep and will get it back when he gets his head in the game |
