Jeez !!! What the hell was he doing with the hood ?.....
|
|
By:
Too busy posing for the Camera. C@ck
|
|
By:
should be hooded and sent to Guantanemo.

By:
The Emily ride, this....the mistakes are stacking up
|
|
By:
He's been very poor so far this meeting imvho.
|
|
By:
Gosden must be on the verge of wanting to slap him after this latest fk up! |
|
By:
Wonder if ITV will slate him, because it is totally unprofessional.
He clean forgot |
|
By:
Smashed into Strad in the AP market. Not confident with the way the guy is riding.
|
|
By:
Did he forget the horse had a hood on?
|
|
By:
I'd dispense, and get James Doyle in !
|
|
By:
Another clown show. Actually forgot to take the hood off. Even the horse gave a WTF moment.
|
|
By:
Lady Gosden will be furious
|
|
By:
ITV have to show the replay. Kicked out the stalls with both hands on the reins with the hood still on
Certain he just forgot |
|
By:
Why leave it so late to take the hood off?
|
|
By:
Apologies - he didn't forget, but still very poor
|
|
By:
He couldn't get it off, did nowt wrong imo.
|
|
By:
he didn't forget, it stuck he had 2 or 3 attempts
|
|
By:
Much as I admire Dettori., it's time for Gosden to bring Benoit into the limelight. Yes, he was a naughty lad but I think (hope) he has learnt and done his share of riding round the gaff tracks to show that he's ready

forgot guv, oops £600k race, never mind got £28,446.75 for finishing last!

Seen a couple of days ban for less.
|
|
By:
Clown show aside................it should be a stipulation that all hoods MUST be off before the stalls are opened. It's not rocket science.
|
|
By:
watch his 2nd attempt to take it off pmfsl
|
|
By:
In fairness elise is right, but can't ever remember seeing that happen before.
|
|
By:
Spot on Prince.
|

By:
We live in the only country that allows a horse to be blindfolded as the stalls open. The blind is supposed to be pulled off using the strap and ,yes,Frankie fumbled. He's not the first jock to have
this happen and won't be the last until this stupid situation isn't changed. Best racing in the World! HA! |
|
By:
I dont think these Jockeys can be trusted to get the hoods off on time....Time for a rule change.

By:
Only one person to blame, John Gosden. Train the horse to load without a hood.
|
|
By:
Totally Charming now a Super Double Max Bet on the "Holy Grail System"
![]() |
|
By:
He didn't try to take it off until the stalls opened. He forgot.
|
|
By:
He obviously did try to take it off before the stalls opened, and his timing first attempt) is perfect. The question is whether he should have used the handle/strap thing, and not the hood base.
|
|
By:
No he didn't. His hands were on the horses neck after the stalls were open. He may have miss timed it but I think he forgot.
|
|
By:
mistimed
|
|
By:
if u watch the stalls cam his hand is on the hood on the horses neck, he pulls it from the base (as per daryls comment above), it appears to snag maybe on the bridle, he then has another go but by now they've gone
|
|
By:
He has a big couple of days, he's on some very fancied horse's for Johnny G... can't afford anymore poor judgements, or, I fear it could be the parting of the ways !
|
|
By:
Just hope he doesn't try to whip off his wife's drawers for a quickie when he gets home

You just have to watch the replay. I think he got it wrong, panicked and it may have stuck in his rush to redeem the situation. I have a screen shot of him sat with his hands on the horses neck after the stalls opened clearly not anywhere near the hood. It was pilot error.
