THE SHARK/weaver on itv

I refuse to watch ITV racing because of this guy….and Harvey….pinky & perky….

Yesterday, Lewis Edmunds on Fearless Freddy, just over a furlong out as he was getting into the drive position, he gave his mount a smack and it seemed to jink to its left, meaning Edmunds became momentarily unbalanced in the saddle.

So thinking about the Shepherd and Doyle instances, here you had a jink and a jockey becoming unbalanced having given his mount a smack, yet almost instantly in the heat of a battle, Edmunds recovered the situation and went on to win the race.

He made a comment a while back I just didn’t understand ie that his big worry is that about City of Troy in the Classic is that he won’t handle the layout of American tracks ie tight ovals.

And this got picked up and reported by the Sporting Life and then by the RP in their post race analysis of the Juddemont.

So basically a horse that can lead and be relentless in front will hate Del Mar…that’s a new for me.

It does seem like he’s adopted the crazy takes approach to thinks.

It’s like when the whole thing with Kia blew up and he said - I don’t know what Kia is saying because like it or not he’s a big stable.

Lord…that’s not when he meant…he was comparing himself to the likes of Coolmore and Godolphin in which case he’s a small timer.

I could not believe what Weaver said about the horse hitting in the rear , he ws not standing up

is/was the laughable/risible excuse put forward by weaver the same excuses defence used by shepherd at inquiry,or didn't the inquiry involve  evidence from the jockey just the fact it didn't actually cost the owners the race

Completely different, one was a full court room style tribunal with professional presentation of 'evidence'.
