PURPLE MOON

Apparently he doesn’t like hurdles or soft ground, that has to be my kinda horse

and even though I backed Honolulu at 12/1, I don’t mind a horse with a mind like his to beat me.
Well done Purple Moon!
August 22, 2007 at 20:49 #112206yeah great performance from purple moon! although it makes me wonder why jamie spencer is always on luca cumani’s top horses! nicky mackay seems to be 2nd best!
and yes i know jamie spencer in most people’s eyes is a better jockey but you would think he would be given a chance ehAugust 22, 2007 at 23:43 #112223Nicky Mackay has been given his chance, like when he rode Bauer at Ponte and made such a mess of it that he failed to win the race he needed to to get a penalty to run in the Ebor.
August 23, 2007 at 00:30 #112226nicky is my favourite! he’s strong in a finish and stylish but i suppose everybody has their opinions.
getting worried for him though about luca putting jamie spencer on all the decent ones

Spencer was different class today – but there are days like today for him, and there are days like a day he had about a week ago when he rode 4 or 5 hot fav’s, including a long odds on shot, and give the horses the worst rides I have ever seen.
That’s Spencer for you though, sometimes brilliant, sometimes very ordinary – I just feel his cockeyness will catch him out someday. And if you want to look further into what I have just said, just ask yourself how many times did Spencer ride a front runner for AOB?

Well, silly me, there I was thinking it was Purple Moon who was different class.
Murtagh was also different class in the 3.10, I’m sure you’d agree
August 23, 2007 at 09:42 #112253Spencer was fantastic on Sir Gerry. Greater credit though goes to Oscar Urbina who held him up off a slow pace at Newmarket last time, tactics which meant we got to back him at 9/2 yesterday instead of 7/4.
