D.Lane is on FireWest Australian Racing

Offthebit

Quinella no good to me im only on meech straight out at the $8.50. She HAS to win on this next fave and Damien HAS to miss a place. If Damien beats her home in this race she cant win the challenge

Meech leading 6 - 3 Lane to serve in the next set.

Meech was a bit too cute on that fave. I get the feeling that is going to cost her the challenge. Im hoping the lane on faves theory comes to the fore now.

Que the fat lady :((

I haven't been backing him and he's been getting favs up. Maybe I need a bowler? :D

Gee he rode some stinkers there in the last three races at Pakenham tonight and I backed all of them. That's why I'm losing interest L-)

If you`re backing horses from outside gates at Pakenham (at short odds) you need a spell.

. Tykiato drew inside the winner in race 7 but somehow settled further back.

Race 7 Orujo (winner) gate 3 Tykatio gate 4.

Fairly obvious you don`t like Lane.

100 winners in VIC, year in year out, shows he can ride.

No hate. Just frustrated he never seems to win when I back him. I already know he can ride and he had two earlier winners on the night.

True. But when you're riding for Weir and Waller and you don't win you get replaced really quickly. 

Weir 16/17 overall strike rate 17%.

With Lane in the saddle 26%.

Another Listed win.

Wow. You had to go digging for that first post. Pathetic.

thefalcon

his house-mate Jordan Turner does not seem to be getting many rides.. a few in the outer country tracks, that's all.

be frustrating for the kid....

Fastmoney

Turned 23 today.

RIO

gee hasn't he got so much in front of him...what a champ

Thunderstruck

*edited my post(as I misread what barrier he drew lol)..
i sometimes find him hard to catch,just missed in r8 at Sandown today, maybe I don't back him enough or should bet EW even when their short..ish lol =((

RIO

Backed him straight out today and the e/w divvy wasn't too bad in the end!!!!!

thefalcon

yeah, but whats happening to his house-mate, young Jordan Turner?

TheSwooper

From memory he rode a nice winner on Sunday.

RIO

what a start to the day...win, win, second, third.....Why did i pick today to not do any form!!!

Fastmoney

And surprise, surprise, back on Hellbent.

RIO

and was never goign to win from there!!!!!! Bet he's not on it next time!!!!

Fastmoney

Pretty sure the instructions would have been to go back from the outside draw.

RIO

7 horse field???? maybe. May be more chance of don't fight for a forward position and let it settle!!! hahahaha, who knows. I just know he has put together 3 or 4 VERY winning weeks, and he still has a few chances left today!!!!

RIO

OMG, give him the cattle and he'll get them home. 5 -6 weeks ago was on struggle street. NOTHING but hard work has got him back on song.....anything between $10-20/1 he seems to do well on!!!!

Tassie oaks for D Lane and D Weir. Great combo.

Beat the short priced favourite and then in the next race tables are turned when he is on the short priced favourite and gets rolled.

Looks like you`ve done your money.

RIO

Yes, Yes, and YES.......but i still think it was a balanced view!!!! haha

EDIT.....i now see what you mean....Umm, bit of a situation that there probably wasn't anyone better available and at least he now kniows what not to do!!!!

Fastmoney

2nd favorite in a Group 1, pretty sure they would have had plenty of jocks to choose from.

Prior to Lane getting on, 7 different jockeys in 7 starts.

Would imagine the owners thought getting whipped over the head was a legitimate excuse and it seems likely  that last start he rode to instructions.

Unlike the overreaction on PTT obviously Weir and the owners see it that way.

Don`t think he has done much wrong.

Fastmoney

Another Group 1
