Cobden and Durrell should both get bans but they won't. schooling in public.
|
|
By:
Filth, rancid, ban for life only answer
|
|
By:
Wouldn't you love to know what his actual instructions were?
|

By:
I didn't post this about this ride, but....
|
|
By:
anyone...was that much worse than hillsin iyo?
|
|
By:
*better
|
|
By:
He will win another race and then the fanboys will come back crowing about how great a rider he is...
|
|
By:
Cobden has just completely dropped off my riders to trust.
|

By:
Bally good horseman
|

By:
That was disgusting, again nothing will be done and silence from every single gravy train pundit, that is a cert
|
|
By:
My view is it wasn't as bad as Hillsin as that was clearly a 'don't win under any circumstances' ride. This one, they didn't care whether they won or lost. They just wanted it to give him a nice experience and get him settled. Still should result in a lengthy ban as wasn't put in the race with a chance and effectively schooled in public but still not as bad.

Surely now we must admit Sean Bowen is a breath of fresh air. Strong and intelligent with a will to win. Too many big egos now in the saddle.
|
|
By:
I’ve seen enough Bowen family efforts to disagree

No wonder people givin up, cowards at the top with bottom licking media, Harry Favershams, the lot of them, White Feathers in the post

Anybody who thinks Cobden "stopped" the fav doesn't understand racing at all.
He was clearly told to try to settle the horse which failed off a crawl I have never been a fan of Tom the Teeth and the horse was far too fresh |
|
By:
Ta.
|
|
By:
How do you know he was told to settle it?
|
|
By:
it was stopped from running on its merits
whether nefarious or not another debate |
|
By:
horses settle better for a loose rein & going even pace anyway so if no pace on at all (ie today) then not fighting always best
|
|
By:
..and this one was a staying PTP one, so no stamina doubts!
|
|
By:
Irons - there's 'settling a horse', falling asleep, not caring and stopping one. If that was 'settling' the Stewards should delare it a non-runner as it had no chance - i call it very poor jockey ship [not that ive ever ridden a horse unless u include the one pulling the milk cart when i was a bit younger] and daylight robbery!
|
|
By:
Off a loose rein the horse would likely have been in font after half a mile
He rode it exactly the same when he won at Newbury |
|
By:
Bumper win, slow pace, never pulled, just travel very well
|
|
By:
Never put in the race.
|
|
By:
My sympathies are with the fav backers but I place the blame on Tom the Teeth
|
|

Watching that old rubbish football team too often, too much poo in your eyes
