    Did anyone see the 3.20 at Folkestone? Buick was on a 1/5 shot there in a maiden.
    A furlong out and he's clearly travelling the best with a length lead. He's sitting looking around him trying to do it in style. All of a sudden he notices a horse on his inside staying on and finally gets to work,winning by the smallest of noses.
    He deserved to lose and should get a ban. Absolutely crazy riding,wanted to look good he nearly threw it away.

    Handicap mark maybe I thought but that was only its second run.

    Check out Spencer last night in the 7.25 at Wolves (I think) on Supa Seeker, that's how you make yourself look foolish with a ride :rolleyes:

    Jesus I hate Jamie Spencer :mad:. It seems everytime I back him he's out the back for most of the race and flies at the finish to get beaten a length.

    Ah sorry. Even if it was a third run,if you're looking for a handicap mark you don't put your horse in a race where it'll be a 1/5 shot

    Just watched Spencer's but Buick's would have been worse if he was beaten. Check it out

    If the jockey on the horse that finished second hadn't of drop his whip a furlong out Buick definetly would of been beaten.

    Pity he didn't. A few days off may have taught him a lesson
