Cobden

my biggest bet of the day. Not happy.

Given an easy ride to teach him to settle. Didn't hang that much unlike what Fitzy said and didn't look as difficult a ride as he said. Reckon it could well win next time. Definitely looked like a schooling session.

Was slightly poor at jumping, but fresh as daisy crossing the line.

Easy to back at 13/8 when it was forecast to be odds on.. The horses that finished in front of it were very positive in the market, so it looks like the informed money wasn't on the fav.

Stewards looking into the riding of this ..

The same for many of them, he's gonna get loads of winners due to the sheer number of mounts he'll get. But let's not kid ourselves if you transported him back to when Walsh was riding for Nicholls he'd be lucky to be third choice in the stable. Unfortunately he seems to have bought into all the hype Nicholls and the UK racing media have put out there about him as listening to himself and also what other jockeys say about him the old saying 'if he was a bar of chocolate he'd eat himself' springs to mind.

Mediocrity at best....very poor when it comes to tactics.
Not worth a tin of beans imo.

Interesting it took them so long to have a look. You've got to wonder if they were asked nicely by the powers above them.
