He is favourite in every race he rides in tomorrow.
Opportunities abound
He can be superb at times and won races just because of they way he rode the horse but it seems he was mixed up with Ready To Strike and Shergar.
Gave it no chance to even place from where he positioned that one.

Sometimes I can just shake my head ..... if you look at the horse's form, you will see he always come from far back - in this race his goose was cooked by the lack of pace - giving him no opportunity to quicken - no jock would have won on him today

That's what I'm saying Frodo.
Use your initiative.Pace is too slow there is no way you will quicken from the back of the field and I'm sure he knew that.He just thought oh well let's just ride for luck and see what happens.
You could have put any jockey up and if they tried to be proactive and tried something instead of just riding for luck you could have a got a different result.
Pace judgement from a jockey is everything and yes if you put any jock up and ride from the back of the field in a slow run race it would have been the same result.
