    I wish they would do this more often, including the bit before the race.

    Great Video Despite the horse just not having IT the final furlong - the jockey put him where he needed to be. Very good of the jockey to let up and not push the horse in the final furlong. Wow that was some tight quarters racing for sure! Thank you for uploading.

    I may be getting a thoroughbred soon. I have seen two mares that I'm considering one of which used to race. These horses are gorgeous. 😍 You make galloping seem effortless.

      If it was a handicap everyone would've weighed the exact same saddles and rider included. Not the horse though obvs lol

      Freya Harris WRONG. lol If it was a handicap, the horses have different weights!

      That's what I said... The horses all carry the same weight... The horses weigh different amounts.

      Freya Harris In a handicap, horses are weighed differently in accordance to performance so the best horse will get the most weight and the worst horse will get the least weight.

    @MsVanorak: I'm no expert (& certainly no jockey), but it looks like he got boxed in a bit against the rail & behind a wall of horses towards the top of the stretch. When horses get really close to another horse running in front, I think they tend to start bobbing & rearing a bit, naturally of course. It is the jockey's responsibility to guide the horse away from such traffic. That's just what I think, again, no expert here!

      He was referring to the barrier draw. The horse was drawn in barrier 2.

    • @mickplant5186
      @mickplant5186 Před 5 lety

      It is where they are drawn in the barriers from inside out in this race. Barrier one then 2 etc. The attendant says about bringing the odds up first in reference to horses drawn in odd numbered draws. Hughes comes up in no2 after the odd ones have been placed in the starting stalls either side of him.

      He ran once more and was well beaten (11th out of 23 runners), he then was retired and sent to stud to breed horses which is a very good way to go out
