A solid 4th

By ACONCAGUA

great ride, awesome ride.......

bankered neisius in the pa..lesson learned.

I`m the first to blame Jocks,but can`t see what he done wrong here? Well placed and got after his mount...

absolute daylight robbery

riding manner in the last 50m??

oops must have missed something

After he was beaten i was more interested in Hotlines runner... ()

JV - last 50m he tries, its from 150m to about 50m i have a small problem

he only tries when the horse is clearly gona get past him..too late..it is a jockeys job to ride a horse to the line..not take it easy when 3rd seems secure and then panic when a horse flashes up..well atleast i hope thats what he was doing..99% of other jockeys would have got that to run 3rd

nothing new in Cape Town I see -

Wasting your money in CPT guys - poor jocs!
