These jockeys are fecking useless when comes to understanding horses ! They are not machines , they expect the near on impossible from horses !
Anyone with an ounce of common sense does not ride the last 2 furlongs like that !  |

Much has been made over the last couple of days about Skelton and the hold-up tactics, mainly by the very irritating Chapman. Thankfully, only Skelton and Bowen do it on a regular basis. Giving away cheap lengths in slowly run races is never a good idea, and quite often riding ex-pointers for speed in slowly run races is not a good idea. If you do it then the rest of the field are dictating the race to you. Not good, particularly on a favourite. He has got away with it a few times because Chepstow has a very long testing straight, and there have probably been a lot of unfit horses coming back to him. Obviously, that isn't always the case, and too often, the jock is going to look a mug.

very much doubt he'd get many rides without family ties.

Hapless Harry can always rely on Dodgy Dan..

How about the best horse won? Why would they change tactics from the horse P2P win? The 2nd favourite didn't give away so called "cheap lengths"
|
|
By:
Three rides on favourites at the Chepstow meeting 2 wins & second. Gave that last one every chance of winning but was beaten by the better horse on the day. What's the issue here?

A family that have jumped horses for 50 years plus and done not much else and the forum geniuses claim he can't present a horse at a fence, go figure.

It is always easier to criticise from an armchair when you have retired.

Kenbum & uphis ions are a pair little nothings who would get shot down and leave the forum if they didn`t stick together blowing sm9oke up each others Kenbums

As forv whippin willy , what does 2 wins and a 2nd have to do with anything ? Another stat talking gonk who is clueless !
Horses win races most of the time , not jockeys ! They are as responsible for losing as well ! |

All those years ago when Aceform posted one of his "this wins on the snaff" posts. It pretty landed on fence at Hexham and PPKing ever the wordsmith posted YOUR HORSE APPEARS TO BE PERCHED ON A FENCE.

# Geez us, that was bad ( 3-45 Southwell ), now I know where the phrase " schooling in public " comes from. Skelton on the better horse by a mile there.
