Not a stupid question btw, sometimes it can get withdrawn as the horse may have been set up to ride only with that jockey, so it would become a NR. In big meets though, a lot of vested interest and money put into these horses so usually a rider can replace. It was actually a really good question.
Stop it, you'll make me blush soon :-) |

Yep, I was all over Politologue and upto the last fence it could have been Altior, Min or Politilogue. Strong finish from both Min and Altior. You had combi forecast on those two didn't you? Politologue faded after that final jump and finished close fourth to God's Own at 40/1 |

Yeah I used a free bet on a Min/Altior combi but won’t be a lot back. Altior’s jumping saved him in that race. |

Agreed. Laboured it and a LOT of money was placed on that. With three to go the bookies must've thought they'd won for the day. Fortunately they didn't. Great jumps in the last three fences, kicked on the last beautifully. |

Yup, spot on. I had high hopes for Min with 2 to go but no complaints, the best horse won. |
