Quite bizarre,they must be mad. Winston has been a shadow of his former self since returning. As usual Jamie takes it in his stride and even rides work with the beast on another horse. Their loss will be someone else's gain :D

How much are we talking about for the beast chris? 10, 20, 30 grand? What about buying him with that proviso then changing your mind and putting Jamie up :D As he's still on 90 Colin, it looks a good bit of placing to me :p

Don't watch it now but thought Colin Baker was underrated as The Doctor and Peri was my favourite assistant followed by Tegan.

Moore strikes back at his Talking Horses critics & Jim McGrath with a sparkling treble on the first day at Glorious Goodwood. Ryan is quoted as saying "What a bunch of muppitts".

What about Gulf Express & Yamal just yesterday?

Maybe you should give Stoute or Fanshawe a bell to see if they require a jockey tactics adviser :eek:

Answer the question Colin. Burn out, me ass :rolleyes:

Don't you just love these armchair jockeys? How many winners have you ridden Colin? What makes some of you "experts" think you know better than some of the finest exponents of the art how to ride a horse? Piggott can think himself lucky every race wasn't shown in his day, he would have got more...

I thought he'd already gone back to Australia some time ago.

The Tinker - 1987 You're getting soft in your old age Colin :p

That was Steve Beal Colin not Kemp although he's just as bad. They are not alone, what about Lorna Bradburne at Newmarket or Mike Vince at Ascot/Nottingham? The non stop verbal diarrhoea is enough to put you off going racing as much as GG commentating although you can't escape it even sat at home.

:laughing: Could be a close call.

Even if that's true, it's not breaking any rules is it?

Yes & Yes

The Dickinsons, Gandolfo and Morley were all done for using them here 25 or so years ago.

Wouldn't it be dependant on accurate going descriptions, what's to stop them calling it good when it's firm? Thirsk did it in reverse on Saturday and overwatered to boot, good to firm (firm) an act of pure fiction. Personally don't like to see jumping on faster than good, they seemed to pulling...

According to Paul Hanagan the ground is good not soft and faster than when Anna Pavlova ran there last time. He said they will wait till after the first race but she should be considered a doubtful runner.

Sadly, tailed off and broke a blood vessel. Shame, I know they held him in high regard and considered him a horse with a lot of scope.

Colin, far more "misuse" of the whip occurs in Ireland but there are far less bans due to their more lenient rules, don't think get bans for whip misuse. Something the nutters should bear in mind when advocating disqualification here for whip misuse. Whip use is very well controlled here.

You said he was the best pilot in the north & deserved more rides on Thursday :laughing: Told you he wasn't riding well :P
