Nico

I think that is the worst ride i have ever seen.

Harsh mate I thought it was a good ride.

Very very poor.  U need to hold the horse up.  Even Fitzy states it.  Poor once again from this jockey.  Why does a top stable like Henderson have this boy riding???

Well known dodgepot

Even Fitzy is slating Nico

horse is a dodgepot always was

Even you know he should of held onto until the last moment, if he got beat then you can take it but that ride was atrocious.

it WAS held onto

Was left in font after the End Error

Has everyone forgot about the enigma L'ami Serge in his absence?

has to be produced after the last..terrible ride

Even more WHY u need to wait and wait.  You have answered ur own question regarding the jockey

Wheres Graham Bradley when you need him?

That will live with him... poor tbh !

nothing good enough to tow him into the race for long enough

If I had my last penny on that horse I would have no complaints.

When u hear Fitzy slating a jockey that tells u everything.  Nothing else comes in to the equation

Anybody crabbing that ride by Nico should find another sport imho.

for once I agree with you acey

Yes Acey you would have had a lay in @ 10 on

P1shed right off it never held on for Placepot purposes but no complaints.

Chapman has just cemented what I've stated.  Henderson goes thru de Boinville in the saddling enclosure

Horse a monkey almost finished 3rd after cruising to the front.

Not run since 19 canteen ffs.

some utterly clueless jockey bashing mugs on this thread

So you are saying that if nico could ride the race again he would ride it the same ?

walofs

Acey, time for Hendo to pack in and find another sport then?

Have u heard what Henderson & Fitzy both stated???

its a grade 1 & he has barely moved his arms until after the last
nothing good enough in the race to tow him further
heavy ground
horse is a confirmed fkin pig
1.03 i/r

and you are blaming the jockey
a figures jockey

don't give a fk what you or they've said kriskin

Spot on wonder....Shocking.

I make my own mind up based on facts

wonders - ur coming across as angry person these days on most threads

the whole world knows the horse is a monkey so no way he should be in front before last 100 yards..watch sea pigeon's champion hurdle

Hitting the front at the last is bad enough but what makes it even worse was that he immediately started to go mad on the horse which just hastened the horse jacking it in.

wonders - I think the trainer knows more than we do.  He's the expert.  This is nothing to do with facts

Forgive Them Father.

Not watched the race , but seems to me a few posters on here have posters on their walls as pin ups < lol

of jockey`s ,

Why does the trainer know any more than any decent punter? The horse is a prize ponce, the reace fell apart, I would not take any notice of Fitzy to be honest, there is not a jockey anywhere who would have won on that today.

The irony is, and with the benefit of seeing the good run of the horse, if PP did run L'ami may have been able to nut him on the line.

that's perfectly believable

I've no doubt given the chance that Nico would ride that different and would have found (or at least tried harder) a way to try and hold onto it for another furlong.Whether he could have is the big question imo.

To the other extreme on Kildisart there, never ever put it in the race, always too far back, why do these clowns do that.

For the life of me I cant crab that ride.

Winner finished like a rocket ship though...not sure how much more L’Ami would’ve had in the tank had he been held up.

Obviously more than we saw but enough to beat off the winner?

ELG,That horse has one short sharp burst of pace that has to be kept til the last possible minute but it would have been fascinating to see if it could have got past on the run in.

100% spot on.  No one knows if he would have won still, but it is the best chance the horse has in his races.  It needs to be held up until the last second possible and then produced for that burst.
