Mr S. Connor

that was awful

reminded me of nearing the vinegar stroke and getting cramp in both legs

Love how they do close up focus when it's a low down nothing rider, but never one of the bigtime others ay...?

The little men get crushed by the media only

Did well to get there ! Then total fcek up !

Has this ever happened before?

It happens

Backed it in running at 11s only for a tenner. Had a good day on BDA & Maj but not the point is it. Blokes a ****g imbecile.

It wasn't a patch on Roger Loughran aboard Central House

He made a mistake Bluebottle.
Have you never done so?

CH is the genesis of premature jock elation.

If I have and if I haven't what relevance does it have? Zero relevance you iron.

jockey on the winner thinks him and his horse ran the perfect race,nothing to see here,

I reckon Lydia should interview him post race

Had £50 ew on it and also backed Roger all those years ago on Central house

I personally feel sorry for the lad , done everything right to come win the race and made a genuine honest fck up on the biggest stage, I sincerely hope he doesn't leave it affect him and that he stays offline for a while . I acknowledge all the punters that lost on it but it was a genuine mistake he is after all like the rest of us only human

You backed a loser that should have won as we all have.
Get over it Bluebottle

The only thing that has saved him an entry on the aftertiming thread is that he did not claim to have cashed out for most of the win before the ease up, that would have tipped it over the edge but he is skating on thin ice

Unlike the majority on here, I don't feel the need to lie on an anonymous forum, I could've lied and said I greened up but I didn't.

It is one of the most bizarre ever, out of all the bizarre ones. They showed the drone footage and that has the jockey perspective. With a ruddy great big red circle at the winning post.

Aftertiming two winners is a hanging offence Bluebottle

The circle is the other side stands side,everyone makes mistakes,he gave us a great day out in Moira winning the open P2p on wowsham ee all got stuck in

We

There you go BB, Bentring had a 50 e/w on it and seems to have forgiven him alright....but has he forgiven Roger yet

Irons. 6349 posts since April 1st 25'. Need I say more.

It's not. That's why I mentioned it.

You have already said enough,Bluebottle
You could,of course,post this afternoons bets to show that you are not a pocket talking loser.
I strongly suspect that you will not

Comedy Gold.
A P&L will do

Won't be doing that again iron you cretin. I feel pathetic for even doing that. Bending to the whim of sad case in an anonymous forum.

You are pathetic for calling the jockey an imbecile,Bluebottle
Those bets are not Exchange prices,BTW

I use fraction on daq. You imbecile

Go away you utter moron

Where was the losing bet?
Strangely enough they do a P&L on BD also

he had his head down driving the horse

Until he stopped riding.

poor chap

No Duffy never lol

The jockey should clearly be flogged with barbed wire because Bluebottle lost a tenner

Talking to the owner's in the bar after just held their hands up and said that's racing

As it is,Bentring,
Kipling's "If" sums it up perfectly

The owner's what?

There is nothing untoward, everyone lived, it was brain fade. But 9/10 times you can see why it happened. Sure, I can even see why you could possibly mistake 50 on a white background for a big red circle. But not why you can't see the actual red circle once you begin to pull up !

I will take a lucky guess that you have never ridden a racehorse,Cider

Wrong (again!)

Perish the thought that you could ever be wrong Cider

For sure I can't keep up with your pace !

On the plus side,Bluebottle has buzzed off

Whatever about it being a mistake, it was a very expensive one. Was pointed out to me afterwards that the difference between 1st and 2nd prize money was €39.000. Ouch!!

A total of €11,179 was traded at 1.01 on Betfair, but the rider eased up in the dying strides and allowed Finny Maguire on Moonverrin to get back up and score by a short head at 20-1 for Martin Hassett. There was a further length and a half back to Tiktok Casey in third.


Connor was handed a 14-day ban after reporting to the clerk of the scales that he had glanced up at the big screen and thought the 50-yard marker was the winning post.


"That's life and stuff like that happens in life sometimes," said owner Trevor Campbell. "The mare has run a smashing race and Stevie [Connor] just came in and held his hands up and apologised. Everyone makes mistakes. I hold nothing against him at all."


In a taxing race, the 9-4 favourite Brosna Shine could only manage fifth and the Cheltenham winner Celestial Tune was pulled up.

Celestial Tune took a big old drift before the race as well

fk me is bauble baubling on again..

Personally I think it's most unfortunate that he actually thought the race was over and he genuinely believed he was after winning the race. he has only ridden 11 winner's on a main track over the last 14 years (unsure how many Ptp)and adrenaline probably took over just unfortunate for the poor lad and those who lost money today but it's swings and roundabouts like last minute goals in the football sickening when it goes against you and ecstatic when it's ur day.

Tictacman post above regarding the owner's comment post race...
Fair play to the man, don't think I would have been so diplomatic, a true gentleman
Hope he has some success soon to compensate

At the end of the day , anyone who backed him is fully entitled to be p1ssed about the result ! Otherwise none of us would ever place a bet ! The man snatched defeat from victory !
It is a great shame as he rode a terrific last furlong of the race ! He miss an open goal from inches away . If he owns it  , fair enough . We don`t know the man , he maybe mortified by his mistake , or he may well be laughing it off in the near  future ! To be fair ,something like this only happens one in a million rides . It was jockey/human  error .
Maybe they should have insurance to pay out the people they let down . If you backed him , it must feel like he robbed you .
His mates will probably never let him live it down !
If you weren`t invested in the race , you can see the funny side .

The best horse won the race and if he had finished second he would have been an unlucky loser. He stopped when in front and ran on again when he had company

Thr trainer said that Maguire was told to lead as late as possible as she stops when she hits the front

Has this vomit ever happened before,and will it happen again ?

Life is a learning curve. I think yer can rest assured he wont be doing it again. That said what is with easing up before the line? Yer can understand it if you are confident you are well clear or trying to protect a hcap mark, this occasion was neither.

He probably won’t but someone else will…..

Handicappers not looking

Maguire is booked to ride for Derham in the Kempton bumper today

Usual nonsense from Aceform.
Handicapper??????

Hi woodenhead,it was mentioned……handicap ? Bla bla wooden…..

Usual insightful comments from the cretin

The person mentioned the word,I was agreeing…..keep up wooden.I have you dangling on string tbh.

BTW Iron…..do you wear brown or black shoes ?
