@littlebirdietv@DustinSpriggs4 If anything it was a master stroke by Matt as he obviously knew that the horse needed to settle more if it was going to make it to the top grade then took them off when the job was done.
I’ve ridden a lot of winners for Matt and I know he would think about that
@bendorries76 It will certainly have a huge effect on turnover as I don’t think the industry would be spending billions of dollars a year advertising if it wasn’t leading to a major jump in turnover.
A drop in turnover and ad revenue will effect every sport
It will have a big impact.
Retired jockey Blake Spriggs reflects on the challenges he faced after a fall that ultimately ended his riding career.

@Page1991Adam When enforcing that rule, the stewards will first look at whether the horse was ridden against its pattern or against instructions and neither was the case.
If he pushes forward & they kick up to make her work then she fades late, the connections have every right to be furious
Comparing a run where Ole Dancer drew one over 1200m & was able to land closer making zero effort to a run where she drew the outside gate over 1400m and complaining that she went back is just rage bait for mug punters.
She’s settled as one of the back 3 runners in 5 of 6 starts
@Champ_Ratings Punters should’ve done the form and seen that she has settled in the back three in 5 of 6 starts which would have her racing pattern as a back marker. One run doesn’t make a pattern
@mortdoyle Zero effort is a huge overstatement and the instructions were to settle back. That doesn’t change just because the horse jumps well from the outside gate when first up over 1400m.
There are times where you have to accept fate and settle into the horses pattern & hope for speed
@BrissyPunter Rubbish as the horses racing pattern is to settle back and there is certainly a rule that basically says you have to do everything you can to finish in the best possible position
@Page1991Adam@7horseracing It is a terrible theory to think that because someone has money, they won’t be deterred my losing $40k. He is clearly not happy about it as he is appealing it. If it wasn’t a deterrent, you’d see big name jockeys throwing the rule out the window but we don’t see that
There’s a real chance for @willfreedman to go one up on @beermitchell in race 6 at Kembla today.
If he beats you home, it could be worse than Wills three putts playing golf Beery
His attempts to use you as a pawn in his con during the post match interviews was laughable and I’m sure you’re embarrassed for him after hearing the full audio.
He wanted to get paid for nothing then possibly hoped to get paid again in a rematch
I felt the cut on Michael Zerafa wasn’t bad at all. He asked me between rounds “Sweet?” to which I replied “It’s sweet there’s nothing in it”. That’s the total amount of blood on the swab. A very disappointing end to what I thought was shaping as a great contest. #TszyuZerafa
