De Bromhead sends 4 horses to Punchestown today but she only rides 1 of them, also has another 4 entered tomorrow but again only rides 1 of them, her stats are poor lately, has there been a falling out with some owners not wanting her to ride as her mounts have dropped significantly last few months?

i noticed that , since she came back from injury at least.
Even before her injury you could see last season she wasn't the same jockey. I noticed she looked different on a horse, slightly lower style, and I don't think it's done her any favours particularly riding a finish. It would be great if she recaptured her best but age waits for nobody.
Raised this point ages ago.
The first thing to say is the media will say nothing even though they must be able to see for themselves. I had a chuckle when they made much of her being booked for Queen's Gamble.
She has done herself no favours by riding far too many from off the pace, and having to then rely on her very weak finish.
Henry probably quite glad the owners are making decisions for him. At some stage he will have to say something.
Hoping she gets nowhere near Workahead in the opening race.

Agree with all , looked almost unstable when she first came back she is looking a lot better now , but she needed to .
De Bromhead has had a pretty torrid time since Xmas..got to blame someone though the carrots are on order for March
is it worth the risk of the usual spring carrots unless he,s prepared to give same carrots to Rachael, their good but not good enough to overcome a 10lb penalty on top
Luck and magic turnips seem to have run out. Great run for a couple of years when the turnips worked perfectly. The games up now. The magic wears off eventually. And both trainer and jockey found out.
Withabitofluck this horse who is related to lots of winning hurdlers might do a bit better for her here, hopefully run into a place at least.
Did she just get run out of 3rd, horse hanging in behind leaders didn't help but a decent run.
She's seemingly on the decline.....maybe time to call it a day now and concentrate on something else?
She was off with an injury for a couple of months, i'm sure she'll get back near her best.
vets are always qualified
are there loads of rogue vets out there?

The current Labour Cabinet seem to be well qualified professionals too (until their claims are investigated)
Good to see her winning again at Cheltenham, form is temporary, class is permanent. Well done Rachael, good to see you back at the top table.
wd Rachel won even with the alleged 10lb penalty 
Go Rachael, go rachael 
. She's finished all right!

Showed twice today how weak she is in a finish DD, perhaps you just don't like her?

think he's forgotton that bob turned it in with rachael riding it @ xmas
the idea that she's the key to the turnaround in form is total bs

Glad she got out in one piece. Congratulations on a great career.
