This horse has had breathing problems when in Ireland.He had a soft pallet op after this race then upped a further 6f and won.There is absolutly zero evidence of the horse been stopped in this race but to the untrained eye everything looks different.

This is a reason why he is a champion! He felt something from the horse that we did not detect on screen and the part that is noble about pulling him up was not injuring the horse, himself or anyone else on the course! It's refreshing to see a race where the concern is for the horse and not the purse!

Been studying horse racing since 1978 and it’s plainly obvious that this horse wasn’t going to get a place a long way from home . A lesser jockey would have flogged it , but Richard looked after it and saved it for another day which I,m sure connections were very happy with !

Yeah if you look at the 3 horses that were up front early they all pulled up they just went too fast in sticky ground. Your just talking through your pocket

Woah, a jockey that cares about his horses health.

Greeting from Ireland: Seriously are you kidding us, did you not see the steam pumping out of him 4 out, the horse was obviously in need of a run. Sounds like you have an unhealthy ulterior agenda suggesting the horse was pulled, I'm not saying it still doesn't go on but was obviously not the case on this occasion.

What a a dumb clip / assertion against the jockey. The jockey like 3 or 4 other jockeys in this race were looking after the we'll being of the horse(s) first and foremost.

If you'd done some actual research (I know that's not a word you know) you'd realise that this was the horse's debut over fences. He was joint top weight in a novices handicap chase. He started to drift back down the field and then made a mistake down the back straight (which somehow you missed).

@MoniekRedhead

Жыл бұрын

Just a question from someone who isn't familiar with hurdle races (but with flat racing). If this was his debut on fences, how can he be top weighted? I'm thinking he's an ex racehorse that had maybe a high handicap general weight and that weight is being (partly) used when he starts his debut on fences??? If not like this, would you mind explaining it to me? I did see the horse getting tired and having to drag himself over the fences but I see it later in the video when he's already at the back. I noticed him getting tired at 3.15. And what was the mistake he made? Thanks in advance for your answer

Whilst I agree racing, particularly NH, is still far from being completely straight, there isn't anything underhand going on here imo. Everyone is entitled to their view though, obviously.

Geez you obviously lost money on the race then lol Have you ever ridden a horse ? Jockey obviously knew no point in pushing it, they are not machines and can have off days just like humans.

Complete bollocks, the horse was not travelling and lost touch, you don't start pushing and hitting a horse that clearly has nothing to give.

I backed that horse that day and i back him next time out at Plumpton with Johnson on board and he won but i must say you haven't a clue about horses if you think Johnson stopped him that day...

Good grief, it's not like Greyed A was the only horse that was pulled out. Do you not care about the other 2 or 3 because you didn't have bets on them, too? Whinging.

You do realise right that "stopping" a horse means to prevent it winning when it could have? At no time in the race did Greyed A ever look like winning and the fact that 7 runners from a field of 12 were pulled up, suggests the ground wasn't very good during this race. The horse was travelling well enough early on when they were not going at racing pace but later made a few jumping errors that caused it to drop back, and the fact that Richard Johnson pulled it up rather than giving it a hard race to still finish well beaten, meant it was able to win its very next race. The horse was 3/1f in this race and 15/8 2nd fav next time when it won, so it's not even as if they got a better price to have a gamble on the next time it ran. I also find it quite amusing that anyone would think Richard Johnson would wait 20 or so years to finally be crowned Champion Jockey and then suddenly start stopping horses!

this guy is a buffoon. He thinks because the horse and rider have won races before they should win every race they're in or he's pulling off the horse. Rubbish. The horse got a peek at 1st place for about 3 strides and then fell right back at the next jump and though you see the rider urging humanely, the horse tosses head left and right saying "FUCK YOU!!! NO!!!!" so he sat back and said 'well fuck it then.'

I recall that horse won a couple of races prior to this run and the reality is winning races or going close can take its toll on some horses especially low grade ones.

the horse is a stayer preferring 3 miles or longer...... it has no pace for shorter

A horse who wasn't happy. A good jockey looks after a horse. A disgruntled punter, who has little idea, will complain.

Horse jumped poorly and hadn't the pace to go with the leaders. Dicky did the right thing by pulling up, but I still can see where your coming from. He never urged the horse forward so therefore stewards should have questioned Johnson over the ride given.

I always remember what an old friend of mine used to tell me,,,,Horseracing and betting on horses, are two different things,,,,,its so true and so hard for the jockeys to ride a winner,,,,such a hard game,,,,,

Richard Johnson is not bent, which makes this video meaningless.

Beat fair and square. The horse wasn't jumping cleanly so therefore every time he jumped poorly he lost ground and energy.

You obv haven't been watching racing long.. im not denying horses get pulled, but this is not one of those cases clearly.. when a horse is pulled he never gets anywhere near the front, at any stage of the race..

Nothing wrong there

Did you lose money on it?

why is the course so narrow and fenced in, loose horses could cause mayhem

Didn't bet in this race so can give an impartial opinion. The view that the horse is tiring doesn't add up because at no time does Johnson apply any pressure to it to really find out if it's got anything left, not even 2 or 3 shakes of the reigns. That I'm afraid is very suspect. If it was a lesser known jockey on this horse I think this ride would be seriously investigated (I'm assuming it wasn't). What was the official explanation from the trainer and/or Johnson?

This is ridiculous. The horse won next time out off of a 2lb lower mark in deeper ground over further. What you're seeing here is a horse get outpaced in the middle part of the race and a jockey understanding that fact and being sensible instead of rowing the two ears off it and risking injury by throwing it at fences. It won 28 days later at a shorter price (drifting from 6/4 to 15/8) in a less valuable race under the same jockey. I've no doubt there's corruption in horse racing this certainly isn't an example of it.

Don’t see a lot wrong there just a tired horse on ground he obviously doesn’t like I backed him that day but I accepted defeat before 4 out

Completely sour grapes, this was the horses 1st attempt at chasing, likes to lead, but us also prone to getting lack lustre in its races and pulling up. Why it was 3/1 fav in this race is the big mystery, Johnson knows more about racing and how a horse feels or even rides, so never rode the hell out of it, as the horse wasn’t on a going day. Next time out at Fontwell with Johnson aboard over further on heavy the horse lead all the way, no abnormal betting patterns, opened up joint favourite drifted a tad and went off 15/8, nothing bothered the horse and allowed it an uncontested lead, unlike this race. It then won its next race at Fontwell, leading all the way again, this time with Twiston-Davies up top. All in all this horse PU 6 times in 22 rules races, so had a tendency to not have its whole mind on the job in hand.

Yeah and also depending on time of the season, the race etc the trainer will say look if he doesn't feel right don't kill him to get a place, the horse swallowed very quickly the jockey tried to niggle him back into contention but the horse was done early doors, he seems to have the hump that the jo key didn't destroy a horse that was beat and going back anyway, god I can't believe the no brain punters that y'all through their pockets, or their giros in their pockets

There’s nothing to see here you’re grasping at straws

So, you believe the jockey intentionally 'tanked' the race?

Just shows what little you know about riding in a horse race of any kind.

vigurious ?

This is rubbish, anyone can see that he nearly fell at one fence, wasn't running well at all

Me thinks it’s running to free

It happens all the time across the board in racing, as there's too much money to be made from bookies to Jockeys and Trainers. More than the race itself is worth. So do you not think that a few of them are going to take the backhander, rather than try to win the actual race? I've seen races and dodgy results that you wouldn't believe over the years of watching Horse and Dog racing. Do we all stop gambling? Very rarely and if we do do, we end up going back to the bookies eventually. As long as there's extra money to be made on the side, you'll always have corruption in sport. Racing, is no exception!

Definitely agree, looks dodgy as hell, gets beaten out of sight after looking to be going ok without any encouragement from Johnson, and then miraculously bolts up next time out 😆🤣😂....yeah, that's as straight as Graham Norton 👍

Just back on big meetings i.e Cheltenham festival steer clear of small weekday meetings

Poor to see I understand that. But it goes on every race every day, without this there wouldn't be any horse racing as owners wouldn't invest (some owners), prize money is horrendous compared to the cost of keeping a horse in training. Way to stop it: change the handicapping system drastically.However this race, dicky maybe felt the horse wasn't itself, meaning something could be wrong internally. He could have seen the horse bleeding. He could have felt something go. Or maybe he knew the horse had no more to give. There are much clearer evidence than this video.I have horses myself, Italian riviera and beeno

Sylvester de Souza does this all the time I will not put money on a race he is in anymore and to all those who say oh it’s the horses health etc etc. It isn’t at all

So you lost a bet - get over it!

Horses aren't machines. It might have spread a plate or something more serious. The well being of the animal comes first and foremost and is the jockey's responsibility when out on the course. Your opinion simply boils down to ignorance.

you need to learn how to read a book before you try reading a race. That horse was not stopped. if you have a clue how to read form you will see that 2m4f was far to short a distance on soft ground. The horse needed 3m plus on heavy ground to see him at his best. he won his next 2 races over 3 miles plus but at no time was he gambled on. He simply could not go the race pace for a 2 and a half mile race. He is a slow boat and in my opinion the jockey did nothing wrong apart from not give the horse a hard race and save him for an other day. and there is no rules broken looking after a horse's future welfare.

talking outs your pocket

You are wrong; simple as that.

the horse was never going to win, it was gone a long way from finish, do not flog a dead horse,

In the early 90's I helped Dave Nevison set up his first Internet site called 'Racing Today'. He had a collaborator (apparently a titled fellow, who wanted to remain anonymous) who used to watch for horses that were being 'tenderly ridden' in the NH races. These were consequently targeted for opportunities for investment at later outings. One memorable horse "Where's the Mexican gone" at 66/1, there were many more. The fact that this horse (Greyed-A) won the next time out could be an indication of this but it could just have been having a bad day. Each horse has a unique personality and with some, you cannot force them to perform, they rebel and it can be difficult for the trainer to restore the animal if this is done. It is the ones that have not been heard of before that are the ones to watch for and this was always done early in the NH season, and you have to at the race to see its performance and pre race inspection in the paddock. I am reminded of one of Nevison's own horses 'Young Frederick, (trained by Karl Burke)' that ran on the all-weather and was charging home (at 33/1) when the jockey seemed to pull the horse right and it lost by a nose. Nevison was livid but couldn't prove a thing. Next time out Young Frederick was 4/1 in a night race at Wolverhampton and performed miserably. It was discovered that he had a hairline fracture in the leg that had been sustained in the previous race (I think it was Southwell). There is no doubt in my mind that corruption exists in Horse Racing but it is very difficult to prove.

This is called 'gray racing' at least around here.. it's not necessarily frowned upon but it is a dirty way of predicting place. The horses don't like some tracks. Some like to run on dirt but not grass, etc.. sometimes it's just them throwing an attitude that day.. bad mood.. stomach ache, sore muscles. whatever.. think of the things that make you grumpy without outside influence. Pretty much the same for horses. So on the tracks the horses don't like, they're ridden 'tenderly' usually with a middle of the pack finishing, but the horse did not exert itself very much, so the NEXT race, it will be a little MORE rested than other horses that have been running similar schedules. Next race is MUCH more likely to place.

What a ridiculous video.

He was outpaced after making mistakes. He's won twice since then when moved up in trip, over 25.5 and 26f. Stop doing silly videos cause you're out of pocket and stop gambling if this is where it takes you.
