    That’s very poor :( However what can you do about it? That’s what makes it so bitter is that you’re powerless to do anything. I guess you can learn from the experience and maybe get better odds on her next time she runs :D . she looks a lovely animal so think i’ll be having a punt next time out!!
    Good luck with her and hope the jockey tries much harder next time. Shame on you Spencer :x

    All this seems to confirm my opinion about most jockeys.

    Arrogant little expletives.

    When I made this post last night, I was not looking to write another chapter about Jamie Spencer being a bad jockey. He is not a bad jockey, neither is he a great jockey, he is normally good enough though. If we didn’t rate him then he would not have been booked him for the ride.

    Myself and my brother (Tuffers) run a small syndicate with about 20 members, most of the members don’t have thousands of pounds to throw at the game, they are just racing enthusiasts who have always dreamt of owning a piece of a racehorse. We have been relatively successful since we set the club up 5 years ago, but have been increasingly frustrated by things not going our way, Tuesday was another example. I’m fully aware that sometimes your views can be clouded when you have a biased view on something, what I was looking for was an impartial view on whether it was a poor ride or not. I’ve had enough replies to confirm my first impressions that it was bad. Thanks for your feedback folks. Next stop Doncaster on the 27th. Jamie Spencer won’t be in the saddle.
