  • Alec Voikhansky was given a 28-day ban for failing to ride out to the winning post aboard Power Of Twins at Bath.
    Voikhansky appeared to think he had the race won aboard Richard Hannon's two-year-old, only to be collared on the line by the late-rallying Lovestruck Romeo under Nicola Currie.

    Well done ATR. Putting that box up on the screen, with 2 furlongs still left to race, was a stroke of genius.

    I used to love horse racing but not anymore. You see this kinda crap all too often.. you see them ease down too early, get trapped in on purpose so they have nowhere to go. It’s just crap, save your money and enjoy yourself. Jim Crowley should be an ambassador for these dodgy bastards in racing he is the worst.

    I thought that was a bit harsh. Clearly over confident whilst almost on the post. He made the mistake of not looking over is shoulder. Love struck Romeo only won by a snout.. However i have seen some 5 lengths from the finish easing up. I can understand how punters would be seriously annoyed though If they bet on him. Does anyone know is comment after that?

    Tom Marquand on my prospero yesterday at Goodwood 3.35 pm rode a shocker , he got it boxed in and lost the races. The favourite had no chance and Tom should be held accountable. Did the bookies bung him to lose I wonder?

    • @BugleCoops
      @BugleCoops Před měsícem +2

      Nothing wrong with Marquand's ride at all, you're just bitter you lost and clearly know very little about racing to make such a silly accusation... The horse hadn't run for over ten months and was probably a bit fresh so was ridden in behind for a turn of foot, nothing the jockey can do if the gap doesn't come other than wait, pull out and hope they haven't got away in front... Not everything is a conspiracy.

    • @Chief_Brody
      @Chief_Brody Před měsícem +2

      @@BugleCoops Marquand not getting placed cost me 3 grand in my e/w acca. Was he bunged by the bookies? No of course not but to say that there was nothing wrong with the ride is incorrect. He was boxed in on the rail and allowed the winner to get first run on him- even then it wasn't maximum effort to get 2nd. It wasn't a good ride and we are allowed to call out a jockey when they do this.

    • @BugleCoops
      @BugleCoops Před měsícem

      @@Chief_Brody Respectfully my friend, he didn't ride the race to lose as was implied and I felt the insinuation of corruption was grossly unfair. I was on it too and the gap one might ordinarily expect to appear simply didn't and there was nothing he could do other than pull to the outside, chances are he would have won if so but even that's not a guarantee as a fresh horse might not have maintained a finish if he'd got the run earlier and in any case, he was being pushed for a good half furlong before eventually picking up and staying on so he might not have been able to quicken through a gap, had one opened, anyway... Maybe he'd ride the race differently in hindsight but I suspect he was probably riding to the trainers instructions - that's racing!!

    • @Chief_Brody
      @Chief_Brody Před měsícem

      @BugleCoops you're right, that's racing. I've seen abysmal rides in my 35 years of watching racing and that wasn't one of them. As you say though, if he could have the race again he would've done things differently. If you do want to see a bad ride look at Crowley in the first at Goodwood today. Boxed in in a 5 runner race and got out of jail only because Oisin Murphy left the rail.
