erhaab1965 Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Re: The Jockey Thread Tom Queally deserves a mention for his ride on Frankel in the Sussex Stakes today .

TheRat Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Re: The Jockey Thread Hardly think he's an unknown quantity He did well today, not knocking him at all but with a horse like frankel it is not exactly hard. Pressure on him was immense though so credit where credit is due Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erhaab1965 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Re: The Jockey Thread Another good rode by Tom Queally this time on Midday to win the Gr1 Nassau , rode with patience kicking on in the latter stages . Also yesterday winning a Gr3 on Chachamaidee again riding with plenty of patience. Seems to be riding with a lot more confidence after a few seemingly mistimed rides rides in the early part of the season. I have absolutely no doubt he will become a top jockey within a few short years. Well done Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markmywords Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Re: The Jockey Thread Just have to say well done that man to Sylvester De Sousa on Mr Angry in 17:00 I was panicking thinking he left it to late and getting himself trapped. The cool man bode his time and then to perfection released.:nana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erhaab1965 Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Re: The Jockey Thread Agree , another jockey destined to become a top ten jockey within a few short years especially now he's hooked up with top class trainer M Johnston.

mileni4uk Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Re: The Jockey Thread Has anyone seen a worse jockey than Robert Lucey-Butler? Can't believe he still gets rides.

Bathtime For Rupert Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Re: The Jockey Thread Thought Johnson gave Tae Kwon Do a poor ride. Pulled for ages and only went down by a length. Yeah possibly didn't want to lead on him seen as he veered left at every fence at Perth when he did that, but I reckon if he let him get on with it at the left handed track today, he'd have won quite cosily.

Cowan Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Re: The Jockey Thread Something I've learned is Don't back a frontrunner if Jamie Spencer is onboard! Rather than get them to the front and dicate the race, Spencer wants to drop them in-behind the pack to make a late run. Fails everytime.

fintron Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Re: The Jockey Thread Personally, I like Jamie Spencer on front runners. Think he's a good judge of pace from the front. Richard Hills is the one I've come on to moan about, he's useless. Its interesting how Taqleed suddently wins when Hills is taken off. Tagdh O'Shea gave him an unbeleivable ride to win at Newbury today. Bit of juice in the ground helped a little too no doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussP Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Re: The Jockey Thread Fin: Have to agree with your post. JP is pretty good on front runners whilst R.Hills ain't the best. Best lay system, Hills when priced under 2's:ok Spencer gets a lot of grief but he's nowhere near as bad as people make out. His riding style will always leave him open to criticism.

Tedthewolf Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Re: The Jockey Thread Don't like any of the Hill''s riding and wasn't a big fan of the Da training agree Spencer is underrated from the front but the Dazzler is the daddy at that imo.

Best lay system, Hills when priced under 2's:ok Spencer gets a lot of grief but he's nowhere near as bad as people make out. His riding style will always leave him open to criticism. If he wants to ride the majority of his horses from the back then fair enough. But the man has been a professional jockey for over 10 years now, he should have learnt to do it more accurately by now. On occassions he's clearly under the best horse or with the most horse underneath him and making ground up hand over fist in the last couple of furlongs but still finishes 3l down. His worst trait though for me is not knowing where to have his horse positioned at the right time in the race when everyone is getting ready to make the final push. He just seems so adamant to be sat right at the very back even when he has horses in front of him far inferior to his own. His life is full of bad mistakes.
