Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
In 50 years in racing I am not sure that I have ever seen a jockey hauled into the Stewards room for putting a favourite in the box seat in the run. In fact I don’t believe that I ever have. Not until yesterday at Eagle Farm anyway. Apprentice Jake Molloy was on the fave […]
Everyone in the world knows that Zac Lloyd is brilliant, but he needs to pull his head in big time, before he puts someone down. How many suspensions has Z. Lloyd had now for careless riding? I’ve lost count, but it’s a lot. Yet still he continues on, riding in breach of the rules and […]

Did you see that horse that won the 3rd race at Doomben on Wednesday, the Maiden? Belvedere Boys was it’s name, trained by Matthew Dunn. The names at the top are of the horse’s owners. WF Innes is Wayne Francis Innes. Mirrors to his mates. Not that he’s got any other this idiot clown called […]
The French jockey Aurelien Lemaitre reminds me a lot of Tom Queally, or Luke Nolen perhaps. He can ride well, but he is not in the top flight of riders and never will be, and his name would never have come to prominence if he hadn’t been kidded by a fairy and struck a real […]
Ryan Moore takes his mount the 3rd favorite Above The Curve to the lead. Jim Crowley parks the $9 shot Al Husn at his quarters, to the outside. Aurelien Lemaitre – the frog – tucks the odds on favorite Blue Rose Cen in behind on Moore’s back, to the inner of Crowley. The scene is […]
They come to the cutaway rail. Ryan Moore has been sticking to the fence. Jim Crowley is staying about a horse width and a half outside him. Crowley is showing Lemaitre a run, and daring him to come through it. Moore is about to show him one too, They are messing with the frog’s mind. […]
Lemaitre falls for Moore’s lure, and goes to the inside. It’s a bad, bad mistake. A fatal error. As the frog is about to learn.
Ryan Moore is playing cat and mouse. He’s the cat. Aurelien Lemaitre is the mouse. See Moore looking, looking, looking, under his right shoulder? Lemaitre is looking at Moore too, but he’s thrown off kilter. He is watching to see what Ryan Moore does. But he doesn’t have a clue. The cat is baiting the […]
Here is where Moore sucks Lemaitre in completely. Moore gently steers his mount out, and creates a gap on the inside. He has already sucked Lemaitre in twice, but the French jockey falls for it again. Thanks for coming Froggy. You fool.
