3 ahead now and won again on that very good horse Declaration of War, there is a Coolmore Stallion if they just keep him sound. Fantastic looking animal and huge engine on him. Expect to see him in Group 1 before long!

Great Great Great ride by Joseph O Brien.
That was beautiful to watch. The horse was a beast today but he was seriously seriously composed there! |

FFS ruby, will you kop on to yourself, he was on a steering job. Your credibility as a contributor on here has to be questioned when you come out with this sort of sh1t. Even though he wont win the jockeys championship,the ride Smullen gave Rite of Passage was different class.

Gotchee you have an agenda so your comments are always a little bit over the top. |

 That was a beautiful ride, pure beauty, he was on the best horse by far but god that was beautiful to watch. Irish Jockey Champion, lets all pick up the wads of cash lads!!!!!!!!!!!!! BOOMMMMMM HATERS HATE |

Composed? more like he was lucky, it was a sub standard race and nobody got a march on him because they weren't fast enough.
I'd say at one stage O'Brien was in major panic mode?, and relieved to find when he got daylight none of the opposition were good enough, and nobody had kicked clear. Good horses make good jockeys, Excelebration was simply superior and any old jackass would've won on it. |

How was he lucky in fact he was very cool in the box seat on the rail. But yes the best horse won and any compentent jockey would have won on that but visually it looked a very very neat ride.
I wonder what Joseph's contract is like, he has won 2.3 million in the UK this year worth of prizemoney so say around 10% of that is 230k around 300k euro and made 3.7 Million gbp so say another 10% at 370k, so near enough 600k GBP so 800K EURO all in and say riding fees included. An 18 year old has then won the Breeders Cup on St Nick so you can arugably say he income tax returns or whatever he returns will be over the 1 Million euro mark in the last 12 months gross. I am sure he has also got interest in Stallion especially Camelot once he retires to stud. OR MAYBE THEY JUST PAY THE WHOLE FAMILY A HUGE SUM EVERY YEAR. What ever way it works out, fecker has more money than I ever see and he is 18  |

So ruby the horses undoubted superior abilty had eff all to with the statistics you're spouting?
|

By:
Of course they have, but I wonder what sort of remuneration package the O Brien family have down at Ballydoyle. Must run into the Million if not Millions every year.

CHAMPION JOCKEY
The O Brien's keep paying for xmas every year. Sensational stuff!!!! Another solid group 1 winner yesterday. Be interesting to see how he gets on next weekend. Excellebration the only really good chance. |

By:
Could be a nice double for the family as with yesterdays RPT surely Aiden will be crowned champion British trainer.

I think Gosden has a lead still. Don't think he can win it.

Will anyone be on the lookout for Magnier racing to Lingfield tomara - he'll hardly go to Huntingdon for the 2.10.

Its called karma!

Looking forward to how Joseph has developed over the off season. He has to tidy up his riding but I think we will see a improvement in him this year. He has improved a the rate you would expect with a family he has but I think he has another notch to go. I personally think he will make that big step this year.

Poor ride on Master Speaker.
|

By:
Good win for himself in Dubai..I think St Nick's winning will be done in America this summer. Not in the same league as Camelot
|

By:
I really like Declaration of war but I think he is a 10f specialist. Breeders Cup Classic I be on ante post. Tomorrow not so sure
|
|
By:
Another classic and amazing odds.
Disgusted I had nothing on him |
|
By:
the guy can ride horses but do you think Shane Foley would've lost on them?
|
|
By:
After i saw Mr Foley ride a favorite there last week at Sligo, I wouldn't put him up on a donkey.
That was bloody awful...did you see it?? STEWARDS OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T |
|
By:
ruby just a point of view that any half trained ape can win on Aidans good things?, doesnt take as much as an atom sized particle of a brain cell to figure out that the horse wins a race?

By:
Jockeys do help.
I always liked Eddie Ahern, now I know he is a corrupt. I wonder how many times he stopped a horse that i had a wager on |

Well done Joseph another Derby in the bag
