Racehorse TALK

Too bad Chuckles I fired my rubber bullets instead.   

Does anyone know who has the biggest loss for a jockey in Sydney? Is it Nikolic. He is overrated at times.

The only problem with this stat is that if you ride a long shot, suddenly, you are in front.  I wonder if there are any stats on who has ridden the most beaten favs in Sydney.

not sure but i do know that Nicolic just rode his 1st winner
in town on Wed after about an out of 60 odd rides,
However i still think he is a Top Jock, they have been calling him
DEADEND DAN

Racing And Sports has good information on jockeys over a number of seasons.

They list the last 25 odd favourites for each jockey (they never take part of a meeting so it can vary eg 23-26 runners).

Also all results are broken up over price bans.

A few stats for this season are:


Jockey          Rns<=5/1    Wins              P/L         Last 25 Favs Wns
K Mc Evoy        79           18  (22.7%)       -$353            9 of 26
J Cassidy         80           15  (18.76%)     -$107            6 of 23
D Nikolic         124           17  (13.7%)       -$573            5 of 26
G Boss             45             5  (11.1%)       -$320            4 of 24

We are all 'muppets' GB .... hope this works

I have a feeling this thread will bite in the future.

Before the guy left for O/S I can't remember anyone questioning his riding ability, especially around when he was winning the Cup etc, He seemed considered in the top rung of Melbourne jocks.

Now he's labeled as unable to ride a rocking horse.

Yes he's cost me plenty with some terrible rides but I reckon the egg will be on plenty given time.

Similar really to when one D Beadman came back to riding, too him a while to find the groove but when he did .......

Actually management it may be good to bring the old thread across 

the muppets are still around but just posting on other threads now

Nice ride by McEvoy to almost pinch the 4th race on Rain game...showed some guts to go to the front in a slowly run middle distance race...fought back well when headded to finally dead heat....nice ride in my opinion

"Who needs clueless snipers when you have idiot flame war arsonists like Authorized making their inane contributions."

Couldn't have said it any better myself. I spose if you get your jollies out of baiting me then I shouldn't really criticize 'Authorised' or anyone else for it - each to their own etc. But it's not a very classy or kind spirited way to try to get a laugh in life.

Sure thing he is the worst..he rode two odds on pops the other day and slaughtered them both..hes riding the best horses in the land,and most of the timethere the best horses in the race..  He should be riding more winners than he does..

Corey Brown on My Sweet Cookie was terrible.

I reckon he's as overrated as McEvoy.

A little birdie told me you backed McEvoy today ..... on one hand you say how bad a jockey he is then launch into one he is riding that gets beat

Anyway, what did you think of the ride of Clothings 

HE SLAUGHTERED IT

HE IS A GOOD JOCK NO DOUGHT HOWEVER HE AINT IN BROWN CASSIDY, BOWMAN ,LEAGUE

When you type your messages in Capital Letters Dog, people think you are shouting .... you arn't shouting are you ? 

Probably a few people that didn't realise, so I should have educated a few people for the first time in my life
