Lewis Ferguson on Merrion Square...

I saw this live earlier this week and practically fell off my chair! Youngster, Lewis Ferguson (jockey) comes off Merrion Square at Wincanton. Really bizarre - as he falls into the fence which catapults him through the air. Even more amazing was that he got up and walked away...thankfully he didn't land on his head!

See The World...

Did anyone watch the 'See the World' ride at Wincanton the other day... Video was playing up so I didn't catch it but I did hear it on commentary. It seemed as if the horse completely lost the bit and virtually pulled up - before horse and jockey managed to gather themselves together and go on to win.

It actually saved me a few quid for a change because I had laid the 'likely' winner and not the 'likely' loser in running.



Nice to be on the right side of it!
