One of my favourite Jockey's NOT, Jamie Spencer took over the reigns on Esteem Machine and after being slowly away his normal overwaiting tactics were used in full and Richard Hughes slipped the field on eventual winner Mandurah.
No taking it away from the winner as he got an excellent front running ride from Hughsie but the little Elf (Spencer) lives in Fairyland if he thinks he can come from so far off the pace.
Had I known early morning he was riding I may have gone E/W but more likely it wouldn't have been a selection at all!

Totally agree Ant he is so bloody frustrating rides everything like he is sat upon a sea the stars and is one i never put my hard earned on
ReplyDeleteNormally I would think twice about backing him myself B.M. as in earlier posts 'Dickie le Davoir' comes to mind.
ReplyDeleteThe man either makes an Ar*e of it, or an Ar*e of me! but as I had posted the selection before the jockey change it was all too late!
