Mark Sham has asked me to post these images and will be along shortly to comment..



i am so up in arms today, how a trainer does all his hard work to get jack knifed by a jockey in a race, stipes and officials must take action, i will be getting in touch with the horseracing authorities tomorrow to clean what must be cleaned up, i am FUMING AND FURIOUS !

@Adrian, not sure who you are but believe you are or where a jockey agent. If you are /where then surely you should be able to read a race and understand a little about racehorses and jockeys.

1 Did you not notice how Afloat ( N Juglall) was hanging onto Camden Borough in the straight, which hampered Wayne when he tried to make his run?
2 In the horses last 9 runs she has been ridden by 6 different jockeys and been backed in 7 of those races and has not won. 3 of those jockeys have subsequently been "fired" by the trainer, Muzi Yeni, Smanga Khumalo, Wayne Agrella. The only other time Wayne has ridden the filly she finished 15 lengths behind so obviously Wayne doesn't click with her.
3 Any person that can read form would be stupid to back this kind of horse to win based on it's previous history. Connections should be happy that they earn a stake cheque just about each time she runs.

Comments like yours on open forums are what gives the general public the idea that racing is crooked not to mention the damage you do to a jockeys reputation. Wayne is the best jockey to have aboard when the money is down.

I think the only other trainer that i can remember that used to go bonkers when a horse gets beat and fires and hires jockeys is the late aurthur miller

I remember Andrew Fortune mentioned Mitch is the most optomistic trainer he has ridden for. He expects 6 winners from 5 rides LOL. He also mentioned that Mitch told him a horse was well but when he went down to the start the horses joints felt like tennis balls.LOL. This was on Winning Ways. Not sure if he was serious or joking but very funny as usual from Andrew Fortune

Titch, your years of experience show.....very clear from the race and Bumpys commentary that Wayne is riding to the end but was hampered by Afloat.

Thank you!

Maybe you should open a " race reading class"

I really think that Specsavers should give deals to certain punters - Titch/Shams 100% - Thankfully the RA have given us replays to put an end to "wallet talk".
