No screamshots from Mart today?
can you not ride a winner for about 20 years & then ride one on the day you retire without it looking slightly dodgy ?
He couldn't have given Shady Oaks a worse ride there... See ya Pogson!!
others gave him every chance, badly drifting fav never in the hunt ..
In his interview he didn’t come across as a particularly nice fellow, and as for his riding ability , there can’t have been many worse in the history of the game. It shouldn’t have been highlighted, the fact that he was packing it in, as he was a jockey of no significance.
spot on jimeen - that interview was priceless free advertising to get his trainers career going and he was an árse in it!
in the RP article he stated his dad was not very good at the snoozing part of owners and he would be better to attract some owners, hmmm!

I didn't realise he was still riding;have always thought of him,perhaps unfairly,of being seriously useless.

"Dad's old school and isn't very good with his owners. Nowadays you've got to be in the owners' and trainers' bar having a bottle of champagne with them, going out for meals and playing golf with them."
