maxwell

He's in it for the craic. Good luck to him

A public wealth warning should be issued with anything he rides

It wasn't too pretty to watch that's for sure but we all know what to expect from him.

He went off jolly as well!

well to be fair he isa very funny .comedy gold,but not sure his aim is for punters to laugh at him

TBF it wasn't a 'hidden' fact that he was riding this - but punters wanted to back it still at favourite...thankfully

Slippy, spot on mate, line went straight through it having watched him ride many many times.

It's quite sweet how bad he is.

For the life of me just cannot understand the criticism - sometimes offensively so - of David Maxwell. I admire the man immensely for obviously 'living his dream'. He must spend eye-watering amounts of money every season buying the horses and having them trained by top trainers and if he wishes to ride his own horses so be it. Punters do not have to back his rides and if they do, again so be it knowing his amateur status. The personal abuse he receives I find abhorrent and grossly unfair.

Agree Greenacres , the late John Thorne loved riding Spartan Missile and keeping the ride probably cost him a Grand National by not inviting John Francome but doubt he regretted his decision for a second.

check out his interview at lingfield last week after winning on Joker De Mai.  told haley he was going to l'hippodrome de Fontainebleau the following day to ride his All In You ... and it was winning. 

merci davide ... 15/8

so what you saying
we all say thats shocking but its david so its ok,he thinks he,s good enough to ride against pro,s, so he,s open to same  comment on here

if a pro's riding one of his you're getting 9/4.  if david's on it you're getting 10/3

pays your money, you takes your choice ...

thats a matter of opinion,guesswork at best

odds on shot for maxwell fans to get stuck in to today,10 to 11 which according to his cult followers means he,s a 1 to 2 shot and your getting rewarded with 10 to 11 for putting your faith in maxwell, ANY TAKERS TODAY ?

Anything he wins on must have 2st in hand.

We can of course lay horses he rides so I also don't see any problem

kelly and millman were little negative on its chances might go odds against

Was at Warwick a few years ago and took a picture of David coming over the last on a winner. Sent it on to Philip Hobbs who forwarded it to David.  Got a nice reply from DM thanking me for it together with other bits of news.

did you gat a nice photo of him getting cramp at warrick and virtually pulling up /falling off a long odds on shot of nichols ,now that would have  been a photo to send him,doubt the reply would have been swear word free

think it was BOB AND CO

brutal

Woeful = layers dream

TBF not one of his worst rides, but still got beat.

couldnt settle it for a yard
nearly fell off going down to last
flapping away hokey kokey on run in
normal day in life of maxi

Jacob wasn't much better though

and several other jocks in behind them

Layers dream as DG points out.

eventually went off odds against

The guy has a 21% strike rate and nearly half of his mounts are placed. i know plenty of top jocks who might have given up going to the last - at least he tried something, switched and got the horse interested again - i bet him in the 2 place market and happy enough with that

odds on shot 2 place market with 5 runners,jesus theres more credibility in srtealing a tramps chips in the local park

3rd fav pulled up, 50,s shot 3rd,should give winnings to sally army for xmas

yeah - I was sad to get 42% on my money for a few minutes

well done

thank you

Previous race, won by 11 lengths at 3/1 fav - did anyone lay it that day?
