It;s the first time I've ever had cause to criticise her race riding but that was poor on Ithra.  To top it all she clearly dropped her hands in the last fifty yards and failed to ride out, losing a place,....to her man.  Poor stuff for me.

Tom was the one who went past her for third place - although he rode an awful race earlier on, don't know what he was doing with his.

I napped Ithra in the naps comp so I'm a bit disappointed myself but no complaints with the ride because, as tends to be the case with the stable's runners, she was ridden forward, it looked like they got racing soon enough turning for home, and they've been comfortably picked off by two who were ridden more patiently.

As for "clearly dropped her hands", well the head-on clearly showed the first and second were converging on her inside the final furlong and Hollie had to ease off to avoid being caught on heels on her weakening filly.

OK - thanks for that.  Her first bout of trouble was unavoidable but she somehow got unlucky another twice.
Unlike her.  She usually has her horses perfectly placed.

Jan 2020 - today  607 winners from 4122 rides 15%
Jan 2024 - today   17 winners from  154 rides 11%

shes about 6 winners below her strike rate so far this year, compared to the last 5 years.

On those 154 rides this year, you would be 90 points down to a 1 point stake if backing. Quids in if laying.
