I am the founding member.I could have stopped the Glencairn stakes 5 furlongs out and told him he was going to get no run. Chris Hayes must have been laughing to himself as he come off the rails 3 ouit to let him up and can himself.
Can someone answer me this. How can a jockey that is so good around the gaff tracks and Dundalk be so poor at Leopardstown and the Curragh?
Is it pressure ?
How many graded winners is he going to cost Oxx before he gets the door?

he'll win the 9.05..
hope betfair pull this thread cuz its a load of tosh,top class rider,end of.
He's rubbish. He was on the best horse in the race there and made a balls of it.
John Queally might not be asking him to ride again, that's for sure
These things happen. Witness his last to first run on Cinn Oir at Limerick on Saturday.
Champion jockey I believe this season even if Oxx has SFA.

Soapp your credibility has to be questioned with 1 pt ew on a 1-2 shot...Dreadful jockey for the big day... the Davy Russell of the flat [;)] although Davy can pull some good performances out of the big on the big ones

Gave up on him after his ride in the English Leger last year.
Poor again today.
Poor again today.
Funny enough I backed elyaadi today and thought he gave it a good ride. the winner was never going to be caught.
Even look at this thread originally. As soon as I put it up (and I stand over it) he went on to ride 2 winners.
I guess I was just frustrated because I could see what was happening 6 furlongs out.
At the end of the day horses are ridden by small men with small brains. We need to learn to accept that and put whatever mistakes they make down to stupidity and it is not their fault.
I guess the same as being upset at a kid because he is not clever enough to learn his irish.

He has been rubbish for at least 2 years. He got that Oxx job in a very public sectorish fashion- he hung around long enough and the man above retired. John Oxx will regret that decision, if he doesn't already.
a sensible and witty post from thegalwaymman...well i'll be damned
Interesting comment Lustrumm.Is it just small men who are jockeys who have small brains or is it all small men?
Yet another winner there for the brilliant Fran Berry in the 1st at Fairyhouse.
Go on Fran Boy!!
Go on Fran Boy!!
you can see the how lads would get on the wrong side of poor fran. beaten on the three short priced ones and has still ridden a double 
fellas backing false odds on shots deserve everything they get!
Fran gave every horse he rode good rides today including the odds on loser. When the winner loomed up to the filly he was twice her size and the race was over.
The problem with Halford is that one cannot tell what state his horses are in. This one clearly thrived since his first run and there was plenty of money for it on the track if not here.
I backed the favorite and have no complaints for once

Which of the two odds on losers he rode are you referring to there Lustrumm?
may i ask? if oxx did not pick the berry, who else or what other options had he got?
ben curtis is his apprentice this year! serious rider gonna be champion apprentice!!!
I was at Leopardstown. If you had viewed the horse in the ring you would not have backed him.
