    They both have quite dark coloured heads and the top half of Delta Work’s head is merging almost perfectly with the lower half of Glenloe’s head so it looks like Glenloe’s nostril belongs to Delta Work.

    Follow Delta Work’s plaits up to the top of his head and go over the top of his eye to get to his nose and it becomes a bit more clear which nose is his.

    Barry has 100% lost it imo. The sight of him holding onto Glenloe on the run down to the last was pathetic. All he was interested in, was not letting Russell out between himself and Who Dares Wins, not jumping the last flight like he should have been! It allowed Russell to switch, and still get upsides him though by the last. For gawds sake Barry, just get first run, kick and be gone!

    Glenloe was not stopping, even with the rick at the last, he still nearly got back up. It was as bad a ride as you will see imo. And yes I am talking heavily through my pocket… I feel a bit silly, I’ve said on this forum before that I think he’s half the jockey he was… So I should not have backed the horse with him riding! I never will again that is for sure.

    Any other top jockey on Glenloe yesterday, Glenloe would have won. Harsh but true.
