Great example of it today on here between two lads on here Gant007 and Workrider. Gant007 tells WR to 'lump on' Mister Music man at 1.71, WR tells gantoo to do one no way he is getting involved at that price. Low and behold the horse starts at odds against/evens and is stuffed solid.

I just wondering why people want to back the jockey when it is the horse that does 90% of the work and if the horse does not have abilty you are done for. Backing Nina (Or other jockey) must be a quick way to the poor house? Surly Betting on a jockey means you are betting blind on the horse?

It was probably evident to the trained eye there horse was terrible value and as WR more or less said it was never a bet.

Surly betting on the jockey is one of the quikest ways to do your dough?

I find that betting on the right jockey is a reasonably solid strategy.

Rocketfingers......I will give the horses name first the next time.........If you went racing you would understand the term "Nina in the bumper".......I once heard that from a high ranking racing official.

Sorry gantoo just looking at the stats mate, one of the quickest way to the poor house has to be following the 'Nina in the bumper' brigade. Stats don't lie gantoo she's down the couple of years in bumpers.
