Does he have trouble getting around the sharp Ascot turn I've noticed 4 maybe 5 times he runs wide on the point of the turn
-
Brackets in the first two in running? Zero chance... Man booker can be beaten. Breezing is MUCH different to sitting 1x1 with cover.,the weight swing is not enough on its own, but if staples sets a good pace and booker in the breeze, this is game o…

Once you start seeing him on better horses you will see how long ,Look at his ride in the first today that might take awhile ;)
-
like I said he is going ok at the Provincials "It won't take long,but I predict he will be one of the best Jockeys in this state within a short period of time". how short a time Chelsea? :))

Black Gossip won that race by 3 1/2 lengths! Great article on Paula in the 2014 Sunspeed magazine at page 16: http://www.tbwa.net.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Sunspeed-Winter-2014.pdf yes it did but knocked at least 1/ 2 the field down, I cannot …

was a huge runSteven did the job for him on one at Caulfield one day

I've never seen so many "rider was reminded of their obligations" in the stewards report as what I've seen in the last 2 weeks. Suspend the buggers, if they do it again then give them longer the next time and so on. Warnings do not work

cant warm to Frenchie, hands up under his chin, will ride winners until the novelty wears off, Gatting should have trotted in on Sat (yes talking through my kick), heard him say on Radio he was in the top 5 in France, little bit far fetched. Cost hi…

Think during one of the early years attending the leger he rode a WA or Australian Derby winner on a horse named Bottled Sunshine perhaps trained by Colin Hayes. A good name for a horse during those hazy days of summer. The reason remember that one …

Black Gossip was the horse Paula rode, she lost a race on it at Belmont, jumped out and knocked 1/2 the field down crossing to the fence, Rare Flyer ended up winning the race. I'm pretty sure the horse got D/Q that's how bad it was

Ride was a Barry Crocker

amazing, he wasn't that popular when he was riding, but he was always a worker, took him a long time to get to the top and tragically that was cut short, you can only imagine how many years he would have been No 1 but for that fall. Bob Morley must …

did he jump or was he pushed ?
-
he didn't have it ready for when the actual carnival was on, plenty of happy trainers now
-
Slip get over it

Kellie Grantham should be looking at most a $200 fine by their standards, but if they go on the treatment served up to D Pearce she will get 2 yrs. Absolute joke 5k
-
how would he know "he feels a different horse" if he is new to the stable?? same trackwork rider... who would fall off every 2nd day at Ascot, if she didn't come off they would take off on the grass with her
-
If he is 1/4 as good as he says he will do ok at the provincials. As for one of the best Jockeys in this state within a short period of time, that's a huge statement.Rode over 200 winners as an apprentice, that was a long time ago, I thought I read …
-
He had a lot more than $1000 on it
-
Heard Michael Grantham could be heading to NSW, a leading trainer/Driver has been trying very hard to get him over since the Inters started
-
he's a marvel, just t even get back in the saddle is amazing. But he does look awkward with that bounce of his
-
5 k on the bar is a nice gesture
-
He stopped riding 3 strides 4 the post, probably wouldn't have won, but fact is he stopped riding, looked like he was all set to give a wave and realised there was further to go. Surely the 2 sets of Rules will come in here.
-
ouch that hurt, was super impressive
-
gotta lay Scales of Justice, way too short
-
Hard to tell off the screen.Elli got polaxed, the winner was outside it at the time, but Pont was outside both of them, let's see if anyone gets in trouble, or is it a case of general crowding ;)

you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer guy than Pat. champion bloke

my lay of the day is Elicazoom, Stable just can't get a fav home, shocking run with Favs
