Eeeek poor jockey....Topless looked a certain winner after the last. Couple of lengths clear when he began to hang to the jockeys left (towards the stands). Jockey had the whip to correct him, horse looked like he changed leg or only straightened up slightly when the jockey completely lost balance and fell off. Looked worse and worse on every replay.

Very gracious of you not "to name and shame" Galileo;)
 
The horse did jink badly as the head-on showed. In fairness I think the jock was so much concentrating on trying to get Topless over the line in fromt of Pangbourne, he was tying up that badly, that he didn't bear in mind it might jink that hard away from the whip! Very unfortunate for the two punters who lost a big Tote pot as a result
 
Now that the identities of the two Super7 punters have been revealed, my sympathy for them has suddenly evaporated.
