For a jockey that rides the vast majority of her winners at sprint distances , you would have thought she would be all action late on yet she appears to be anything but in a finish .

I agree. I've never had an issue with her riding anything I've backed. Perfectly capable claiming apprentice. These girls only have to be aboard one who stumbles 2F out and suddenly they're demonized.

She's a complete passenger, I remember one ride on a huge priced horse at Newcastle, she barely even pushed it out, beaten a short head. As If By Chance was the horse's name.

When I pocket talk as you do jinxy then you can indeed TALK. I never backed any of those horses but just reminding people that those jockeys mentioned are quite capable when given a decent opportunity.

Carrot - If you're referring to her ride in the 14:45 Thirsk on High Security - the horse was never going to get 6 furlongs on the going - even the mug that writes the spotlight comments could see that.
Maybe spend more time looking at the formbook and a less time starting jockey bashing threads imo

The horse is a 17 race maiden - what were you expecting her to do on it today at the wrong trip (the horse barely gets 5f imo) and on the wrong (soft) ground?
It's gone off at 7/2 to win and 4/5 to place today - I'd suggest you try to locate the pink button! - rather than explore ways in which she might have ridden it to finish 8th or 9th (rather than stone cold last).

fwiw - he looks handicapped to win soon at 5f on the right ground imo - perhaps finishing last today will aid that cause a little (and the price)

The horse had not raced on soft going before , it had raced twice on good to soft placed both times, there was every chance the horse could get the extra furlong if ridden toto do so , a lone furrow was not the way to get it

He's a 17 race maiden - he's been gelded - they've tried blinkers - they've tried cheekpieces - they've tried a visor - then they've tried the blinkers again! About 9 other jockeys have had a go - including some big names at short prices. He's been placed 8 times and would probably have won at least a couple of those races if only they had been run over 4.5 furlongs!
He runs like he doesn't always quite last out 5 furlongs - he won't be getting 6f in Soft ground imo
All of this info is in the public domain - But it's easier for you to blame a claiming jockey.
I'll be watching his next few runs with much interest - because his mark is now interesting imo - but today was never going to be a winning day for him. GL.

sparrow has forgotten more about this game - dogs, horses and punting - than you'll ever know. Please show a bit respect if you want to be taken seriously.

Well done Faye - set it up nicely for today at the right trip on the right ground! I hope you were on carrot.
