probably would'nt have won, but then again he might have, but i think carberry like maguire on beautiful sound yesterday rode a shocker on dirar there, brought it on a tour of cheltenham, ran into the back of every horse and still managed to get 7th.

You done well to spot him! I was on him too - and felt like I was playing a game of Where's Wally!

just watched it again, he even had time to fix his goggles coming down the hill as he was doing his bit of sight seeing, he actually was beside McCoy and had Walsh behind him at 1 stage, and as they pushed on, he stayed cruising along :mad:

That was a terrible ride by jason maguire yesterday- he couldn't have done more to prevent the horse from winning

Court In Motion at 9/1 to win in the next. Random punt! Think McCoy on Kempes in the Gold Cup. He won't be best pleased with losing at the line there!

I'll shower him in sugar lumps and ride him over fences, polish his hooves every single day, and bring him to the horse dentist...if he wins!;)
