    There have been more than a few of them. Andy Turnell, Martin Blackshaw, Philip Hide, Norman Williamson are only a few.

    These jockey’s all had great hands and all had one thing in common:-

    They could all make you.me and even the horse think he was going better than he actually was…….so many times you were counting your money going to the last only to find when they popped the question the horse found nothing.

    Of course 80% of the time they were going as well as you thought and they hacked up.

    Who in your opinion was the best Mr Motionless

    For me it was Declan Murphy who could put a horse to sleep for 90% of a race and he wouldn’t blow a candle out after.

    PS Richard Pitman does not qualify :lol:

    I think Turnell of the retired lot that I remember.
    Timmy Murphy and Paul Carberry of the current lot.

    David Goulding was one cool customer. Paul Carberry is the present day "motionless" king.

    Reg Regan up at Howard Johnson’s often gives the impression he has more underneath him than he has

    It was always a pleasure to watch Norman on Rhinestone Cowboy.
