Winston

what an idiot

absolute steering job, wheel came off in his hands .... won't be riding for Willie again

Never a gap. Wouldn't come back in if I were him

Any sort of ride with a modicum of intelligence and he would have won.....

That was truly shocking

not a mention on ITV ffs

Need to watch it again but I thought the horse that stopped him coming off the rail was Mullins other runner.

Aye Buick kept him in at first

bet he won't be shouting they gave it me this time.

Was making ground hand over fist without being ridden after the carnage.

thing is he broke well was in very good handy position early on then pulled it back into a sh1te position behind everything.

very poor judgement

That was a f awful ride at the bend he's full of running that must make the top 5 worst ever rides

The Saturday mug money was on it today, last time out at Newbury was "the day" after being teed up at Royal Ascot with one of the most laughable rides you will ever see.

As PF said earlier, not a mention on ITV, fooking clueless

It's really hard to comprehend that these fackwits on ITV have not even mentioned the troubled run the fav got when absolutely cruising - beggars belief

itv racing, the lot of them, have seen that ride and are clearly refusing to discuss it to spare the jockey.  another example of racing looking after their own.

Jason Weaver, his run flattened out, you fooking blind idiot

lets be fair at 1 30 today you were a million to nearly get put over the rails at York this week, clean racing all week and suddenly toiday all the jocks decide the inside the place to be,must have all received the bookies brown envolopes,the racings gone from A,B,C to the usual Saturday lottery just like the bookies like it

The whole programme is now beyond a joke..not to discuss Winston's ride on the shortest priced Ebor favourite in the last god knows how many years just beggars belief.

It's Tony Bloom that picks Robert Winston NOT Willie Mullins.
Interesting to contrast the ride with Adam Kirby's ride on Flaming Spear, Bloom's Goodwood winner.
AK left nothing to chance and came wide.

is everything supposed to go wide?

i'll have £10,000 at 1.1 he rides it next time?

I'll give you £500 at 1.1?

Racing uk even worse Nevison and the sky man summing up the ebor not a 1 second comment on the fav

james hes contracted to ride all tony blooms..he done nothing wrong there..door was closed...why wont he ride it again iyo?

Anthing can happen. Might have 2 on same day like today at diff meetings. Winston might get injured or few days suspension.
Bloom may prefer Kirby, not a 1/10 shot imo.

He clearly panicked and tried to force a gap that wasn't there. The winner romped home anyway, and would have been very tough to beat but Winston did do something wrong.

cider its horseracing..it happens every day.

Of course Willie, and jockeys make mistakes every day. Hold a horse up on the inside in a big field and you need the cards to fall in your favour. When they stayed on the rail it was always going to be difficult. In my view he panicked too early but it's cost him a placing at worst.

imo it would have won.

Imo your opinion isn’t worth a hill of beans, if it was any good then you wouldn’t be going round Britain in a shhitty little van , laying fallers for 2 pound a pop.

its all objective,RW has steered plenty home for him,doubt hell change jockey.

bad ride?maybe...doyle probably the best out there atm,but RW seems the go to jockey for a gamble these days

20 runners..are they all supposed to go wide?

just one of those races,never got the split...too many pocket talkers

and i was waiting on the double

there always a hard luck story in the ebor last year it was Edward Greatrex on NATURAL SCENERY this year its Stratum guess its just one of them racing where you need the rub of the green.

First 4 home drawn 13 17 20 21. Stratum drawn 4. There's your first clue.

Horse had to really ping from the gate and be very close up early doors. Didn't happen. After that the horse needed all the luck to get a run. Entirely predictable - no point in slagging the jock.

as the winner had brunch in a few hotels down the back on the way round,was at various stages 2,3,4 wide coming round the bend,came wide in the straight, before dotting up you,d be a brave man to say he wouldn't have won drawn low, dropping to  1 mile 6 and everything happening that bit quicker , other horses quickening would be a better argument , imo

Winston probably one of the worst jocks out there at the best of times, why on earth is Bloom so keen on the idiot?

Put the winner in 4 and Stratum in 20 most likely a different result.

why
no chance of stratum winning over 1 mile 6 drawn 20 wouldn't have the pace to get in at any point,would be out the back, basically in the same position he was in yesterday

AS you say 1st time, the winner came wide and managed to get a clear run. Drawn inside he may well been stuck in on the rails and waiting for his opportunity, same as Stratum. If Winston was drawn outside he may well have had the clear run he couldn't get up the rails.

Winston had plenty of horse under him 2 out and if he had been lucky to get the run, i'm not so sure who would have won.

The Jolly had plenty in Hand, And didn't matter where it was drawn with a clear run would of been at the business end. no pocket talk pure and simple!

would have won or went very close.

imo
