Take a bow Noel Fehily


Recommended Posts

He might not be as fashionable as Ruby Walsh or Tony McCoy but I've just seen one of the greatest jumps rides ever in the 3.10 at Fontwell http://www.attheraces.com/card.aspx?raceid=677720&meetingid=50531&date=2011-12-06&ref=mainracenavigation&refsite=&nav=results How he gets Bring It On Home up to win - its like Wichita Lineman at the Festival the other year The horse initially jumped well, but nearly threw his jockey off at one point and made a couple of later errors. Several times he slipped out of the picture he was so detatched but, without over reliance of the whip because of the new rules, he's got him back into the race. Some of his rivals were treading water in the end but once he switched him wide he's come with an unbeleivable run. just unbelievable.

I agree mate, ride of the season? Probably not, but if it was McCoy or Ruby it would be in the papers tomorrow, but cos its Fehily it wont...
