    We all know that every horse race is run true to form.U can tell from some jockeys use of the whip whether they are trying or not.My personal opinion is Graham Gibbons is a jockey to treat with caution.I have just watched him riding at Musselborough this evening and I am not convinced he tried his best,specially in the last race.A jockey who allows himself to get boxed,is,in my eyes,not trying.

    Gibbons had the leg-up on three right ****e horses from the Jimmy Quinn yard.
    I don't believe any jockey would have got any of that trio of dogs home in front.
    I watched the Musselburgh races also, and to-be-honest I saw nothing untoward. The Quinn horses were just not fast enough to get themselves out of midfield pockets.

    I do believe gems star has a race in him soon.I felt Gibbons allowed himself to get boxed and when he finally switched,he seemed to run on well.I put him in my horse tracker.

    Just now, nothing much wrong with Gibbons' ride on Tominator -- his first ride of the day at Beverly -- getting it home in front at 7/2 from a poor mid-field draw.
    7/2.
    :)

    LOL, dude. :D

    Re Funatfuntasia ............. sorry mate, I haven't a clue.
    My interest, my form study and my betting is exclusively on National Hunt. What I know about Flat can be written on a postage stamp.

    All that I do know is that this is a competitive enough 60-100 handicap with a few likely sorts. Funatfantasia is uneasy on Betfair -- out from 5.0 to a current 6.8. One of those races in which Murtagh might not be the huge advantage in the saddle that he usually is.

    But, best o' luck if you decide to play. :)
