Any other jockey would have probably pulled the horse up after the 2nd. Totally unbelievable ride, the best I’ve ever seen. A shame there was no crowd. You’ll be hearing a lot more of Hugh Morgan after that. And what a horse to do what he did 👌
Serious, serious respect to Hugh Morgan and the horse. What an amazing ride, just under 3 miles without stirrups and not only managed to stay on board but win the race. Incredible achievement and perfect example of never giving up. Horse probably thought he was out for a nice days hunting. Superb.
Could have lost his bridle and still won. Giving credit to the jockey full credit to the horse because a race horse isn't used to being ridden that way at all.. Just great to see and also proof that horses enjoy their racing.
“The power in his thighs.” Together, horse and rider outstayed & outhearted everyone! I wonder if the owners then gave the horse to the rider as a deserved reward? Thanks for the extended ending.
It always amazes me at how excited people get at a rider jumping without stirrups. ANY one that does jumping, be it steeples, show ring or cross country, should have the balance and strength to jump bareback. That’s how we were always taught
Why does nobody else do it, if there's nothing to it? If a racehorse is a genuine no-hoper, why not try it without stirrups if it's so easy? Could you be on to something? (I doubt it, but I guess one never knows...)
Watched this coz read the headlines. Still couldn’t think he would win turning into the straight. Absolutely sensational ride. If that had been Walsh or McCoy, imagine the Headlines. Other than they would have pulled it up. Sensationally sensational for all us who love NH racing. Did I mention sensational!!!
Take a bow Hugh Morgan what a ride that was unreal and you should definitely get a medal or something for this incredible achievement this was the best ride of the season by far so well done Hugh Morgan
I hope one day I witness you win the Grand national young man!!! Horsemanship at it’s finest and a champion jockey in the making I am sure. Best of luck
@@johnedwards2117 my highest odds ive caught is at breeders cup over 3 years ago was 100/1 done accumulator as i could not be sure of who would win all top 3 were good spent £10 done 10 combinations and one came in lol.
@@johnedwards2117 even have had very unlucky breeders cup for about £18600 in 1997 had a £80 accumulator man united to beat Juventus and 6/4 in return game of champions league something they had not done beating them at home and spinning world breeders cup mile 2/1 and had borgia breeders cup turf ante post at 30/1 ante post after she came 3rd in arc de triomphe and top 2 were not going to breeders cup turf sadly she got out to late on last turn. Even after that about 2007 or after i had one race to win the scoop 6 was on favourite he got with drawn at chester and i got given top weight donkey instead at that point i said to my nephew now hold that tiger will win it and he did biggest slap in my face 😥😥😥
Wow such a good horse video such a cute one u got. Alreaddy ready fornext ride I take. To calm my horse I feel calm and relaxed cuz I can listen to my favourite bands like MCR, Escape or new bands like Delta Parole, and others.
99% of jockeys would have pulled up straight away, from a punters point of view hugh morgan is an absolute legend just to give u a run for your money on that horse, enjoy the ride for a year award sir, the horse also was fantastic, a great team
Hugh Morgan what a. Crackling RIDE 11 OUT OF TEN and mr debromhead RIDE OF THE SEASON FOR ME OVER FENCES 100% HUGH FANTASTIC RIDE AND WHAT A FECKIN RIDE AT NAVAN OF ALL PLACES WORKS RIDING OUT FOR JOSEPH BRILLIANT UP AND COMING JOCKEY 👉🆗🐎🐎🐎💰
I know this is an old video..still I agree ride bareback first it will teach you balance and so many other things then move on to saddles. Cant stress that enough.
"Lots"??? I've seen it a handful of times, but maybe you watch more racing than I do? I'm reminded, however, of how I was taught the meaning of a word, when I was still but a nipper. I ran into the house one day, and the following conversation ensued: Me: Dad! There are millions of cats in our garden! Dad: Really? Me: Yes! Dad: How many, exactly? Me: Three. Dad. Here's a big and probably new word for you. The first syllable sounds a bit like "eggs"....
@@arthurpewtey I've seen it on many occasions but yes I do watch a lot of racing. I bet for a living, and have done for the past 15+ years. I will say it obviously doesn't occur as much as horses that are matched at 1.01 and still lose. But yes quite a lot get to 1000 but usually just for very small amounts. To quote some stats From 2009 to 2011 inclusive (Flat and jumps), there were nearly 140,000 horses matched at 1000.0 in-play and 108 of them won, which is 0.07%. And that is just over a 2 year period. Extrapolate that trend outward, over the 10 or so years since, you can assume that trend would continue so that's probably around another 550 horses matched at 1000 and winning over the past 10 years. At the same time, between 2009-2011 nearly 28,000 horses were matched at 1.01 in-play and 387 of them were turned over. Which equates to 1.38%. Extrapolate that out as well and you're probably talking around 1,600-2,000 matched at 1.01 and losing over past ten years.
Personally I don't see anything to go on about. If you can't jump without irons, you shouldn't be jumping at all. I learned to jump bareback before I ever jumped with a saddle, and jumped in excess of 4 feet that way. Either you can ride or you can't!
Possibly a cazy comment but would not having iron's not affect the advertised weight before the race and the weigh in after the race ? Norm you have to weigh the same in and out :-)
Unbelievable and if it was a top 3 jockey done this ...well ye can imagine the reaction, Hugh gave a great interview too...I am gobsmacked but would love to see him walking from the bed when he wakes up 🤣
Like many I suspect, I was urging him to pull up cos of the length of the race but I was wrong and they were both brilliant. The trainers including the likes of Arthur Moore applauding them into the winners enclosure is a measure of the feat and the icing on the cake for me.

If ruby says hats off good enough for me ,brilliant horseman ship
yeah cos horse racers are totally noble when it comes to animal welfare !

A nice days hunting, get a life seriously
Give that young man a medal! While you're at it, get that horse a bucket of whatever his favorite treat is!
Absolutely fantastic 👍
Ride of the year by a country mile. Well done Hugh Morgan
Many a year !
Agreed. And that'll be equally the case on December 31st.
In racing yes but no ineventing
Been watching racing my whole life,that was top draw and a pleasure to watch 👏👏👏
I can't stop watching! He is a GORGEOUS rider! Get this guy in the hunter jumper arena!! So quiet in the saddle and maintained solid hands!
Could have lost his bridle and still won.
Giving credit to the jockey full credit to the horse because a race horse isn't used to being ridden that way at all..
Just great to see and also proof that horses enjoy their racing.
The jockey was the master
Oh yea he could hav lost the bridle let the horse guess at fences himself and try find his way to the line good man... ur some clown
He made heavy weather of it, an Indian would have won by a street. 😉
@@robbiegib Yeah, but the jockeiy DID NOT jump over the hedges...the horse did...Give the horse at least half the credit.
“The power in his thighs.” Together, horse and rider outstayed & outhearted everyone! I wonder if the owners then gave the horse to the rider as a deserved reward? Thanks for the extended ending.
No they might have gave him a bonus but there's no way they would give their horse to him that's not possible. But good thought
Brilliant.,Hugh.
Ohhhhh Myyyy GoD that's just unreal wow who ever backed this horse and jockey will never ever forget it .. thats was brilliant 👏
Fantastic! Hell of a great ride!

He must have been super glued to the saddle! BRILIANT
Balls of steel - literally.
Not any more. Seriously, brilliant ride

Never mind ride of the year.....this is ride of the century.....give me a better one??
Haven’t seen anything as good as that since Laois won the league in 86
Dedication at its best
THIS WAS AN OSCAR WINNING RIDE- THE GREATEST EVER!!!!!
(Hugh Morgan- YOU ARE A GENIUS, Sir) 💚
awesome, great job

Amazing,the horse and the rider..
Ride of the year no question
Has anyone heard from Wayne recently a lot of his Cheltenham bets are looking very bad at the moment 😂😂😂
Me & my brother used to ride bareback when we were kids across fields & jump ditches, great craic but sore the next day!
Wow such a good horse video such a cute one u got. Alreaddy ready fornext ride I take. To calm my horse I feel calm and relaxed cuz I can listen to my favourite bands like MCR, Escape or new bands like Delta Parole, and others.

Proper Roy of the Rovers stuff. Type of ride where if you didn't back him your still pulling for him.
Wow. Great rider.👍
Amazing!👏
Balls of steel.
That’s unbelievable, what a jockey 🏇
was expecting him saprano at the interview
Extraordinary. The strength that took.

What was traded at 1000 on betfair?
edit: only went to 500 apparently.
yip 20 was matched at 500.
Indeed unbelievable...I'm sure he made Jonathan Sheppard and Michael Dickinson proud stateside...

I'm really surprised it didn't go to 1000 in-running. Lots of horses do and still win. And this looked so unlikely early on. It got to 500.

Unreal!😂💪🏼
Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He seems to have a very strange riding style. I wonder if side saddle may be more common in the future.
amazing pure guts
That is hilarious!! 🤣
Who disliked this was it Andy Thornton? Joke btw 😂😂
Thornton rode longer than that 🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@bobbyknox9258 A Thornton rode longer than John Wayne lol 😂
@@bazglsgw1208 🤣🤣👌
No iron
No problem
He ride to win
He definitely has some experience with show jumping or cross country.
Real cowboy style ..the horse was enjoying it too
Full marks to the lad !
A brilliant ride 😂😂😂😂

I learned to jump bareback before I ever jumped with a saddle, and jumped in excess of 4 feet that way. Either you can ride or you can't!
Can I ask a stupid question, im not a rider, why can't he just slide his feet back in them? Is it very difficult?
His right stirrup snapped so there was nothing to put his right foot into. Left foot only would be more unbalancing than neither foot in.
@@FestivalFluttersFacebook cheers man
Most of them can and do. This chap had a stirrup snap off though so had to choose between one foot, or no feet in a stirrup
@Nufc Magpies 123 Trust me if you can ride you can ride. Apache women and children would have done the same without exception..
@Nufc Magpies 123 mate all jockeys can do it quite easily
When that kind of performance gets the whole world talking about horse racing, it's time the grand national was run without tack!! 😜
Run the grand national in Antarctica with snow mobiles. Now if that don't get em talking the sports dead. Hehe
I had a couple of dollars on him and was out of my chair after the fourth last. That’s a real jockey!
Bet he was cream-crackered after that - fantastic !👍🇬🇧
Great ride, but better name.
Cannot believe it was referred to for the young riders as riding bareback 😂😂😂 terrible stuff😂
Amazing 🙌🙌👏👏👏🤯👏🙌🙌🍻🍻🍻
Oh bullocks:)
I bet his girlfriend or wife is well happy with her he just gave that horse some ride 🤣🤣🤣
👏👏👏
The commentor must have been blind not to see jockey was in trouble after the first fence. His comments about the jockey were very negative.
500/1 !
Possibly a cazy comment but would not having iron's not affect the advertised weight before the race and the weigh in after the race ? Norm you have to weigh the same in and out :-)
I think he could have weighed in with a giraffe his bycicle and some scrap metal for a total of 3lbs and they still would have give I'm the race
Unbelievable and if it was a top 3 jockey done this ...well ye can imagine the reaction, Hugh gave a great interview too...I am gobsmacked but would love to see him walking from the bed when he wakes up 🤣
It’s proper funny to watch, fair play to him, reminds me of the old Harry Enfield sketch
Like many I suspect, I was urging him to pull up cos of the length of the race but I was wrong and they were both brilliant. The trainers including the likes of Arthur Moore applauding them into the winners enclosure is a measure of the feat and the icing on the cake for me.
Jockey was loving it till he sat down in the changing rooms
He knew how to jump instead of getting low you actually lean back slightly.
Terence Heming. You don't jump horses.
S
There was no need to be whipping the crap out of that poor horse disgusting 😡😠😡😠
Yup, horses have thinner skin then humans. And it’s proven whipping them doesn’t make them go faster.
