Saffie really is good isn't she

Yes. And Murphy is not one you want on a horse that needs a good shove.

Didn't someone on here recommend she takes up knitting in her early days?....

...when she wants to be IMO. A classic variable rider.

Be interesting to see how she goes on Justice Court in the 15:00. Taking a walk in the market late on.

Car park ride.

Indeed, never had a chance...

Strange barn imo.

were they all on the gamble? fav drifted like a barge before off
its almost like they knew....

Have to agree NE tbf….

Jock fanboys and girls always go quiet, and blind it seems, when it's the 'other' types of rides appearing for their faves....

shes very good

shes very good

You couldnae make it up

better than millie  that was a stinker

Bangs in a nice 33/1 shot. Could have had a treble up, without that car park ride in the 2nd.

MINI DIDNTWANTOWINALOT,infact not at fooking  all

Harvey with his usual 'never really travelling' go to excuse for a desperate ride, even though the horse was on the bridle all the way round.

Truly shocking.Puts punters off betting all weather racing forever.

I do not bet on the AW except in very rare instances of top quality races

I'm amazed anyone bets any sort of decent money on the AW. Poor Sparrow Lord rest him used to go mad if AW racing was in any way slagged off. Would any punter be really bothered if you woke up tomorrow and AW racing was gone?

i would be in winter

Some good animals have run on the AW.

as a rule no but i actually quite liked chelmsford

not for anything other than there were a coupla things in your favour and its the only one i was in front at

Swap Millie and Saffie around and a completely different result but hardly a surprise.

Each to their own but I would miss it and it has its place in the racing calendar.

They ceretainly have,penzance but,they are far outweighed by the daily low level dross.
Punters still amazed when it goes pear shape on the latter

They moan about the dross on the Turf.

dross is dross, synthetic or turf.

too many longer distance races turn into short sprints on the synthetics.

Lingfield is just a rancid layout, and Wolves is too tight.

Some moan about anything.Jolly gets beat it's the jockeys fault, outsider gets beat its the jockeys fault,
if it's not the jockey it's the track, if it's not the track it's the going, if it's not the going it's the trip,
if it's not any of those, the trainer's no good.

And if it wins, it proves they must have been at it when it lost last time.

The problem sometimes not always with jockeys is an average ride is given and they come out and win on a rank, yet the average ride was given to a fancied mount. All done was a tenner placepot, IMHO Justice Court was given an average ride, on the outside, felt 4f out the placepot was gone. Then you see a very clever ride in the next on a rank. It is why over the years I have 3 trainers that I will not bet in a race if they have a runner. As I do not trust them, so I just do not get involved. Same time, I have noticed with an interviewer he seems to spend a lot of time with a jockey that I shall knows the time of day when needed, depending on the interview I chuck a few quid on blind...  9/10 have won. So I suppose it is swings and roundabouts.

Little wonder that Trainers ridicule the BF Forum

+11% from 2k+ rides w/o claim...cl1/2 record concerns me tho

tbf, I think it is perfectly understandable that punters were disappointed with the ride Justice Court got in the 15:00. Drift just before the off (evens to 6/4), could not have gone wider yet still managed to find trouble, before being eased to finish down the field.

to be fair since the ending of the racing lg and osbourne as team captain  no loinger having the choice of which horses he backs/lays,sorry runs,he,s had to get more creative to win a few shillings

Capable….

.... Yes quite agree, intresting to see how her mount runs in the 4-45 York " Old is Gold ",
  not been behaving at the start, rearing and missing the kick on more than one occasion, first time hood and Saffie to guide it could see it outrun his current odds ( 16/1 ).
 
Was joint Fav with Naanas Shadow lto now 10lbs better off for a 5 3/4 length beating.

Slow away as usual despite the first time hood, still started to race with some traffic problems thrown in for good measure, went from last to fifth.

In rear but in touch with leaders, short of room over 2f out, soon switched right and briefly not clear run, headway over 1f out, kept on well final 110yds (op 12/1)

Where's Saffie? She was not at York.

She seems to be the next Hollie Doyle according to some on here.

Must be a sports personality candidate at this rate...

Where was Saffie if she wasn't at York.??

Hope you aren't betting without an adult present.!

Stu,she is one of the better lady Jockeys imo, she seems to be getting some better rides now, I am not sure a different jockey would have won Today, good luck to her imo. ( no I won't be backing her for SPOTY)

She did have two rides at York. She's riding tomorrow too.

You just said she wasn't riding at York Today. ??

Interesting ride for Clarehaven tomoz. Tricky enough draw to negotiate.

Brilliant.

I would require 20/1 to even consider a Gosden trained horse until further notice! Rarely seen a top yard so out of form.

On another one in the last tomorrow, looks a much more straight forward opportunity.
