Riding about 7lbs below his best this week.
I reckon he hasn't long left.
Auld Ted was somewhat embarrassed when reviewing his races on RTE.
"If Ruby could ride that race again" blah blah blah.
He seemed to give a lot of his mounts an awful lot to do.

He left several races behind this week alright,overconfidence or stupidity ?

Don't think he did anything wrong on Nicholls canyon but when you come 2nd so often by narrow margins you do wonder am I not as good as I once was.
His age and injuries are against him.
However champion jock again does underline his quality.
He has a big farm to pay off and still got a golden contract.
I think he will keep going another year or 2 but the next bad fall will end him

Huge fan of his but I'd say he'd be glad to see the back of the week,between picking the wrong one a few times and finishing with horse left in a few others,maybe just going through a bit of a bad patch.He's still a top class rider imo.

He's still one of the best around .

Brilliant jockey, just hasn't had the best of weeks.  Karma perhaps for his antics on Melon??

Still quite a number of years left

I truly believe and I noticed it immediately at Cheltenham ruby kindness to bacardys repaid itself at punchestown.
I'm also glad Mullins won trainers championship. I didn't like elliot going mobhanded in big handicaps. I think it was 9 in tyestes 11 in fairyhouse. P power race I don't know. It's these races the ordinary trainer goes for but they can't even get a run with elliot dominating the runners.

I thought it was "team Mullins" rather than ruby there in last race tbh,rag takes on the Elliott horse,ruby picks up pieces,Bryan Cooper alluded to Airlie Beach earlier,your point with the big handicaps and mob entries very fair but i thought a bit of win a bit of win at all costs was there today and no fan of that.
