I hope Bernard Faydherbe gets suspended......

nothing wrong with that ride for me

nothing wrong with ride,better to ride to line and gv punters a fair chance.rather check ride of striker at vaal sat race 1 on fav.jumped well in front cruising,then eased to 4th or 5th and when stablemate @ 7/1 hits front and goes well clear the fav suddenly finds another gear and finishes fast to take 2nd.to me that is a suspect ride and not the 1 you point out.im surprised no one else didnt find the ride of striker suspect and no im not talking from pocket as i dont ever bet on vaal sand racing.

Horses are very very tough,imo a 50 odd kg dwarf whipping with a sponge is not gonna really hurt it,more the stress i believe will cause more damage

Imo maybe its a good thing jockeys dnt post their thoughts as anybody who has had experiences with jockeys info will tell you that listening to jocks is the fastest way to the poor house

When Andrew Fortune previewed the Cape cards a couple of months ago he did fairly well?

Yes he did,and the following card he flopped

I always thought Fallon in the UK was brutal with the whip,but i was wrong he never hits a horse without giving the horse time to responds.He is a strong Jock who knows when a horse has had enough..

You're right,and they do get it wrong more often than not

Personally i dnt care or want jockeys or trainers "graft",its useless info which 99% of the time is wrong,i just want to know if a horse is fit, well and trying and not being set up to drop merit ratings or get a price when its right

Winzip you have got to be joking how Striker got that horse to run 2nd was a miracle it was never cruising and looked guaranteed to run unplaced 300 out I suggest you go watch that race again and perhaps you will change your mind.
