Turner chocolates to boiled lollies very quick! Full reign tragedy beaten. Unsure why he did not follow Pike, peel off his back and **** in? Instead stuck to inside, was high in irons all way down straight. Turner has won me plenty swamping them in last stride. Owes me nothing, but that hurt!

Discoverers in the last "should" be a certainty but knowing Ascot, anything can happen.

Smarty Wilson. I'm with you in the last Bondy. Can be the massive improver and cause the upset.

Gee Bondy funny run. It didn't want to know until about the 200 otherwise it could have won. Had a nice result with novelties including trifecta but the Quaddie would have been nice as I anchored Travinator with it for a five figure result.

Yeah tell me bout it Slip, I thought after she slotted in on it we had the race done n dusted but she pulled out n he sort of just plugged then he picked up again to lose by not much.... typical

luckily i had a more place/win bet on it

win only. exacta and tri bring the odds up to a touch under 5's... good enough for me
:D
Just thought even at that price you may have squeezed him into the first 3!!!!

Bondyjnr · April 2014

Had him in my top 4 :P

Just didnt know how he would come back from 2 throat ops

RIO · April 2014

if the second one didn't fix the problem, the horse wouldn't have got back to the track...IMO

Bondyjnr · April 2014

You would hope Rio....

No jock in this state kills them more than TT

mailman505 · April 2014

Perthracing is a joke just gets worse each year have a look at that last race how they almost slowed to a walk yesterday JOKE.They have no idea half of them just awful its not up to metro Saturday stuff average I used to love wa racing but I no longer spend much time on it the jockeys for the most part have no idea what they are doing.Pike and then daylight.

BlacksAFake · April 2014

The ride on Big Caroline was pretty sad,had a chance to ease out at top of straight,but decided to look for miracles!

mailman505 · April 2014

And that's my point y do that when u can ease out and u have horse under u to do rest.They don't know what they have under them half the time and that's y that do silly things.Top jockeys make mistakes they all do look at bowmans ride in the oaks very average.But the key point is they make far less and when punting that's what u need to make more money.Sorry perth racing jockeys but u are f grade.

TheDiva · April 2014

speaking of Pago Rock's win, Morant ran 3rd and Elite Belle ran 4th in that same race.

BlacksAFake · April 2014

Elite belle or Elle??

I think Diva means Elite Elle ran 4th.

How would you suggest it be fixed MM? After all without the jockeys we wouldn't have WA racing. Who should ride the horse you? Me?

It's ok for us to make presumptions from the comfort of our seats, the jocks have a split second to make a decision, maybe they get it wrong maybe they get it right that's racing and in many cases that's life.

BlacksAFake · April 2014

When your on a horse that's got panels on them like BC had you take no chances,no need for heroicity!!

Blinkers_On · April 2014

Yes maybe so, TT made the wrong decision in that split second and possibly it cost BC the win. But that's racing.

I don't agree with the bagging of jockeys without them we have nothing. Trainers make mistakes jockeys make mistakes we all do. Does that mean we all deserved to be bagged?

Have you ever bagged a footballer,cricketer,rugby player ect ect ?? no difference IMO

RIO · April 2014

yeah i do agree...the bagging - which I've been guilty of - is generally due to costing the poster some money, so they tee off....it'd be a lot better if it was just a discussion - like you've done above - but its hard to keep the emotions in check when a bad ride cost you money.

I never read anyone complaining about people writing about great rides, or jocks that are doing well. So commenting about poor rides is definitely okay - IMO - bagging them out is acceptable if they really do a major carve up and cost punters money. IMO.

It goes with the territory and i cant ever recall having a chat with any of these guys that don't know when they have farked up.

G'day Punter!
