    The title is a misrepresentation, it was the jockey's strategy to stay behind.. The race was 2 miles, 3 furlongs, with hurdles. Pays to save energy and stay away from trouble. And you must have the jockey and horse that can do it. A fun race to watch.

    I'm not sure it was so much the jockey. The horse was sort of asleep at first, but soon as the horse made contact with the field again, he got excited and decided he wanted to get involved. The more he advanced, the more enthusiastically he ran.

  • @GrahamMacdonald-w9o
    @GrahamMacdonald-w9o 15 днів тому +3

    I don't claim to be a horseracing expert but I have noticed that, for about three-quarters of a typical race, the horses are hacking along. It is only at the 75% mark that the jockey has to assess whether his or her mount can accelerate into full pace just a bit earlier than the rest. However, this was a pretty startling example of this rule of thumb, as the winner started scything through the field as they were still going around the final bend.

The bookies asked if I’d take a cheque! My answer? Did I give you a cheque? Out came the bag man. Norton’s Coin had fantastic form at Chepstow.
