J Orman race 4 eagle farm...absolute shocker

Geez pingdog, I cant see much wrong with the ride.

Just did my videos of Warwick Farm Today. Saw a convicted punting jockey give one a "run' in the second race. What is wrong with these imbeciles they employ as so called "Stewards" ? Blind Freddie could see it wasn't there . Not as if this cove can't ride. Why don't they just rub them out like they used to. Of course they asked the trainer plenty of questions. Hardly likely !!!- another protected species.

Missed the start pretty badly and I think the head on would show that it was a bit tight in the last 200m.

Stiff? By golly yes. Goes into the black book. Given a run? No way. He was getting stuck into it.

Mum was a good horse who won the Reg Allen and mum is a half sister to to stakes winners in Repatriations and Retrieve. 2015 Dubai World Cup winner Prince Bishop is in the extended family.

Definitely one to follow and will be suited by races longer than 1100m.

Xylaroo – Was hampered on jumping by Forbidden Jewel which shifted in. From a wide barrier was then shifted behind runners in the early stages. An explanation was sought from rider N. Rawiller with respect to his riding of the filly rounding the home turn and in particular whether there was an opportunity to shift out to a position immediately trailing Drizzle when it improved into the race approaching the 400m. Rider N. Rawiller stated that Xylaroo was a big striding filly and passing the 500m when obliged to race in restricted room between Drizzle and Raison D'Etre, Xylaroo became unbalanced. He added that as a consequence he felt it was in the best interest of the filly to keep it balanced rounding the home turn rather than place Xylaroo under pressure and shift it wider on the track. While Stewards acknowledge that Xylaroo became unbalanced passing the 500m when racing in restricted room they nevertheless informed N. Rawiller that in their view the most advantageous option would have been to shift to a trailling position on the back of Drizzle approaching the 400m which would have enabled him to shift wider in the early part of the straight and give the filly clear and uninterrupted running to the finishing line. A post-race veterinary examination revealed a small laceration to the off-hind pastern

Always thought you were a good judge Nemisis !! As for poor old Poison he probably thinks George Freeman was a choirboy.

Looking at the finish of the Tancred, Bowman cost me a straight out trifecta with a lack of vigour around the 100-200m. I could be wrong but he should had 2nd.

When did Nash Rawiller become a "convicted punting jockey"??

You'd better be careful there 

I like Hughie but he deserves that. Possibly too long but needed to get something

That 4th race at the Gold Coast today servers as a reminder why I don't bet there.

Don’t stop there as you are on the ball. There were a lot more there today.

HACKSAW RIDGE – Stewards opened an inquiry into jockey Watkins’s riding, particularly over the final 800m. After taking evidence from jockey Watkins and Trainer T. Austin, the matter was adjourned to allow stewards to view the previous starts and also examine betting records of the race. A post race veterinary examination failed to reveal any significant abnormalities.

His ride on the short priced favourite in the previous race wasn't too flash either although in fairness he might have realized he was in the glue and trying to get out of it. Drew barrier 1.

PP, Are you referring to the slow pace?
