Yeah the listener’s going to have a tilt at the Durkan!Jessies dream is one horse to follow,Gordon Elliot regards him as far and away his best horse and thinks he could be anything!
I’d agree with what a lot of others said Mc coy and Fallon,wouldn’t agree with Ryan Moore however,he’s good but only good in my opinion,any time i’ve a horse battling it out with him i feel fairly confident.I’d put Eddie Ahern and Fran Berry just behind Fallon and over jumps Paddy flood when he’s fit and on form always does a great job for me!That might be just talking through my pockets though.
Ah no haven’t even seen that race,just speaking in general as i was talking to a friend of mine last night and he maintains Hills is one of the best jockeys to have on a good horse,i was wondering was i the only one that didn’t rate him at all.
There are only a finite number of really top, adaptable jockeys out there that can ride a number of run styles to a world class level Moore,Murtagh,Lemaire,Dettori,Leparoux…Fallon maybe…
Pat Smullen is as good as there is, imo.
I’d be shocked if this is indeed true but would just like to add to this list Fran Berry,Christophe Soumillon and a surprise inclusion for a lot of people i’m sure but Eddie Ahern-this lad is serious in the saddle i think in Ireland and England he is by far and away the most under-rated jockey about,great timing,has balls and very strong in a finish!
Apparently one of the girls is already famous under a different name on youtube or something and Gamhu gets back in instead,dunno how true it is though….
In a race of this nature unless you’ve a front running horse there always has to be an element of luck to get/create the gaps to get through, i felt moore did well didn’t try to force it and was strong in the finish (though he never seems to do it when i back anything he’s riding)
Has it definitely been declared that he’s staying in training?very surprising (in a good way) if true.
I thought todays performance added to my opinion of him as in the Derby he destroyed the field but today had to work very hard and was very gutsy and very well ridden by Moore (you’d know i hadn’t backed it).Well folks i’m new here so give me a while to get a hang of things.
Johnston’s a trainer i always keep an eye on and get word from the stable on ocassion(ony 2-3 times a year) but not 1 has lost yet out of 5 or 6
! Thats the blink on it now surely 
He sent 1 over to Dundalk today Hajoum and sent greg fairley with it so i had a little flutter and it duly obliged so there’s the losing streak finished!
