A few hours later and he's out to 3.20. Racing84 and Gruff 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump 2,741 Report post Posted October 29, 2016 One has to feel sorry for Tony Pike. He prepared Sacred Elixir to peak on Derby day and did a 100% job of it. He puts on a world class jockey only to have the Jockey completely stuff it up, by riding like a Coonabaraban apprentice. An absolute shocking ride, full of panic, no patience at all, and one he should watch the replay over and over again - in order to learn how to ride stayers.

Trump 2,741 Report post Posted October 30, 2016 He was given no chance Belinda. He finished full of running, easily beating the rest, even after being ridden in a panic from the 600 to the 400 - getting buffeted, knocked, put off stride, etc and leaving himself a sitting duck. A shocking ride and I'd be surprised if you ever saw him on the horse again. No patience whatsoever.

gubellini 3,995 Report post Posted October 30, 2016 Agree Belinda. Prized Icon outrun his pedigree and outstayed them. Run of the race was Inference. Turned sideways at the 300m and flashed into third late. Serious race horse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump 2,741 Report post Posted October 30, 2016 Ted, I really think he spent too much time before the race looking at the odds! He was hot fav, over the line for most, yet he got into more strife than a chicken in a pit full of pythons. Why unbalance and use up the horse 400-500metres out? Crazy. He thought he was over the line but didn't do the job. He's had a easy length on the 3rd horse but left himself a sitting duck - not to mention the bruises he must have suffered from all the buffeting. Can't fathom trainers who change winning jockeys during a campaign. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
