Bear in mind this article is nearly a year old so stats not up to date but intereting nonetheless

Are ther any stats on Roby’s last fence falls, compared to other jockeys, bearing in mind that these stats can be skewed in many ways.

Published on twitter this morning. Reportedly covering the last three years. I’ve asked what the source is.

They are the ones in my link above so won’t include the last twelve months

Never sat on a horse in my life but Ruby does seem to have a very distinctive riding style with his head very low, looking down the horse’s neck rather than in front of him, in much the same way his (Willie Mullins) horse’s do.

Something or (more than likely) nothing?

Perhaps Ruby can start falling off again in a few months time so Blakey can update for a third time or perhaps he can find something new to write about instead?

Jeeze Stilvi, you are a tough audience. Blake writes very well on a wide variety of topics, nothing amiss in him revisiting this high profile debate in light of recent events.

Earlier on the thread, you said “the racing media will not even raise any questions, let alone criticise him”, and a few posts later you are criticising a journalist for writing about the issue too much?! Hmmmmmm…

I think it was Yogi Berra ( the great American baseball player whose name inspired the creation of the even greater Yogi Bear ) who said :

” that is too coincidental to be a coincidence . ”

Sounds like a good name for an on-course curry concession.

An even better name for a race horse
