Has anyone noticed the huge amount of odds on favourites being pulled up and running poorly when Nico is riding.
When James Bowen is onboard (a far superior jockey) it doesn't happen.
Something dodgy going as this is a trend now for at least the last two seasons. I don't trust them anymore.

Look whats going on in the 1.15.
Hendo FAV 3.5 out to 7.6, 2nd string ridden by Bowen been backed from 34.0 into 20.0 and there was money up all night for it. As Mick Fitzgerald said on TV last weekend: "Nico is a 100% team player". |

if nico wasn't on everybody's radar after sandown he is now ....

Henderson horses are often stupid short prices. Even with the weight concession there was nothing between those four horses to justify That's Nice price. Nowadays I tend to avoid his short priced horses especially when the race looks hot, I just don't trust him and how shtye did that end up running??

He resembles a cardboard cutout tbh…..looks good like most on a point and shoot……

ps. he is bound the win the next; the form hex will now kick in

Young Bowen is 7lb better imo…..

yeah the betting gods will be watching stormy , hendos do tend to go off shorter than they should , the media love em ! but on the plus side his make the market ,he will obviously get lots of winners given the ammo but value often elsewhere !
|

By:
shorter than they perhaps should^^^
|

By:
Bowen much better. Nico just goes really wide and presses the lead on the ones that have to win.
|

By:
Is that the same Bowen who managed to get Jonbon beaten at 1/4 Quixall? Couldn't get him to jump a twig?
|
|
By:
And the same Nico who won on the Bradstock horse last week Trusty?
Short memories and attention spans on this cesspit. |

jango baie 5/4 drifted suspiciously to 7/4..... bolted in

Laid i/r out to 3/1 at least, not sure what race they were watching!

Point and shoot material no big deal tbh…

if hendo/db combo ran 50 even money shots at least 25 would get beat. same as any other trainer/jockey combo. but hendo/db do have that many even money chances each season, so everyone remembers their whopping number of 25+ losers
|

By:
I'm sure your right. Same with Skelton, the bookies are often very short on both trainers favs. As foyles said just need to look for value elsewhere.
|

By:
I don't know what happened to Wilmount but 3.7 out to 12.5

staff in hendo,s yard would steal the last ROLO of their dying granny and laugh in their face whilst doing it

Isn't it hilarious how some of the pathetic keyboard warriors take any opportunity to abuse posters who have a different opinion to them. What is wrong with just saying 'I disagree because...'... or even just 'you're completely wrong because...'.
Personal abuse just shows the nasty bullying nature of some peoples weak sad character. For the record I do not rate various jockeys and trainers. You're welcome to disagree. |

By:
He’s never looked a natural in the saddle tbh….I don’t think he’s grade one,posh boy riding for posh people works in this game….
Amateur look is still there tbh….. |
|
By:
I wonder why he has won so many Grade 1s then Quixall? Btw Spurs, you can dish it out as a keyboard loser but don't like it yourself why is that?
|
|
By:
I think you’re right,OP.Haven’t trusted this yard since the Binocular affair.And look how many fiascos there have been since then,most recently of course,Constitution Hill.
|
|
By:
Cag,how many grade 1 have been point in the right direction and sit tight ?
Godolphin…. Coolmore…. Bla Bla Bla an endless list of average getting the luck of the draw…… |
|
By:
Try looking at his CV.You don't get to ride the horses he does
if your no good,posh or not. |
|
By:
Each to their own but I think young Bowen is a better rider……
|
|
By:
All the James Bowen lovers have obviously forgotten his cretinous ride on tdys winner at Huntingdon last year. I haven't and thought again tdy how the hell did he ever get that beat....

Quixall slags Nico and then quotes the two big flat yards as a yardstick and states point and shoot? Can't remember Nico having any such for them and plenty of obstacles to jump in his " Point and Shoot " career?
|

jockeys are sportsmen/women. they make mistakes. ive seen mo salah miss a penalty kick. ive seen tiger woods take 6 on a hole. no sportsmen/women go through their career never having made mistakes.

Can't remember Nico having any such for them and plenty of obstacles to jump in his " Point and Shoot " career? Referring to most riders Cag…..chief work riders mostly give the go ahead when the horse is ready to win on the snaff… The ones lucky enough to wear the silks get the easy job… |

I would trust Nico to point your truck in a straight line better than you could any perceived point and shoot horse tbh Quixall, the easiest thing I ever did was passing my HGV 111 at 17 and then pointing and shooting. Much easier than riding my hunters 30 miles from where you are!!
