LOL, I was waiting too.
Absolutely cruising he seemed to cause the horse to drift by putting pressure on the wrong side? He realised too late. Should have won handy i think. |
|
By:
That was shocking to be honest, obviously he has a right to ride his own horse but why buy a decent horse and basically ruin its chance of winning a festival race by not booking a decent jockey.
|

By:
Came there with a wet sail and then fell apart. He has form. Did it in another bumper recently on one of his own.
|
|
By:
because he's living his dream and he probably doesn't give a flying fk about people gambling on him whilst he's doing it
if Sean Bowen had been on that you're getting 5/2, you got 9/2 bcos it was being ridden by a man who is not a jockey |
|
By:
When he has the rod up his back removed he will be unstoppable.

By:
pays your money etc ....
|
|
By:
He puts a fortune into the game.
Surely nobody expects a professional standard ride? |
|
By:
We don`t expect a pro ride but I don`t understand why he doesn`t put a decent jockey on his horse in a race of this nature, it`s not a 3 grand race at fontwell is it !

Bit like Jim Radcliffe playing himself up front tonight
|
|
By:
It is his passion and is fully entitled to ride them.
It is your choice to back or lay |
|
By:
I agree with irons.
.... mind you, it might be my fading eyesight, but the jockey looked bigger than the horse to me when watching that finish. |
|
By:
Just shows how unprofessional the sport is, any one can ride in a race basically
|
|
By:
The amateur race at Chelmsford was absolutely criminal, they looked like they were struggling to stay on.
|
|
By:
It's a shame we are forced to bet on the races he rides in. If only there were multiple meetings on every day with multiple races at these meetings.
|
|
By:
When you pay the training fees you get to have a say,in hell
|
|
By:
Nobody is ever forced to bet in a race
|
|
By:
No ****
|

By:
He is usually a better than what he showed there, brain fade. And obviously could have done with a rail on the stands side. No point in complaining about it, that's why nobody is.

By:
I`m not saying anyone if forced to have a bet but I just don`t understand why he wouldn`t want to give his horse the best chance of winning a big pot, he`s obviously a bit deluded !
|
|
By:
some **** been posted here,your not getting anything regards price of the horse when Maxwell is riding against fellow amateurs in fact the price might be tighter as some think his experience against top jocks counts for something against some amateurs
|
|
By:
not all bad news for Maxwell HE,S TRENDING ON X , AGAIN
 |
|
By:
wants to ride don't think from what he's said previously he's not interested in money, wants to compete while he can, buys horses purely for that aim
|
|
By:
and the trainers in this case the Moore's missing out on festival winners ?
|
|
By:
he's paying the bills, if they don't like it i'd imagine plenty of yards would beg him to gove them a horse, not like they don't know when they take them in
|
|
By:
Anyone who bets anything he rides should give up betting imo
We all know he's useless Any other sports where an owner can get to have a go at the top level |
|
By:
you're getting bigger odds because he is riding the horse.
if i was riding it you'd be getting 100/1. if you're still daft enough to get involved and then say Hulk was pretty weak in the finish there, then so be it. i'm not a jockey, neither is Maxwell. |
|
By:
you can lay them as well
|
|
By:
didn't stop booby Walsh putting it up and never mentioned DESPITE CARRYING THE MAXWELL PENALTY
|
|
By:
he buys nice horses.
some of them just happen to be good enough to win with him on their backs pretending to be a jockey. |
|
By:
The trouble is,two bobbers on here want to tell the owner what to do with his horses
|
|
By:
the bottom line is if David wins on a horse, 99.3% of jockeys currently riding in the UK and Ireland would also win on it.
that went up a bit when Ann Stokell retired. |
|
By:
has two entered up fri, guess who is on top?
|
|
By:
Who could forget Barry Connell riding?
|
|
By:
God loves a trier
|
|
By:
mark of a decent jock is people say nobody else would've won on that. they used to stand in the bookies and say it about Piggott. Then McCoy. Now Bowen.
|
|
By:
He's fully entitled to ride his own horses and we all know the risks when backing him
I've actually supported him in the past, and think he is great for the sport However, I started the thread because I couldn't believe how the horse drifted across the course like that, haven't seen that often, and also, with trading so low that there wasn't multiple threads about it |
|
By:
Well i'm an armchair jockey and just trying to help DM who i quite like as a person.
If he didn't do the flappy thing with his right hand/arm,the horse won't have gone left as it was a wtf moment for the horse. He should have done the flappy thing with his left hand/arm and the horse would have gone right,been clear of the winner,went to rail and won race. |
