Karl Neisius is like red wine he matures and get better with age. Karl's best win this year was on Anglet on the 12/04/2015, this filly was not in the mood to run, Karl pushed this horse from the start to the finish line to win by half a lenght.
Karl is fit for a 58 year old. I'm sure Karl can ride for another 5 years.

Tero must be Karl's wife, after his ride on Hot Ticket today he should be taken to the vet and put to sleep never mind going to the old age home. Marcus makes him look like rank amateur.

Flowers your dumbass...I'm no fan of Karl but I will give credit to him when he rides good
.if he on a fancied horse I generally don't back him

I've always followed Karl...cost me a lot...but I noticed da trend that he's only worth following when he's on 7-1 or 6-1 ...I would brass him when he's on a fav

Flowers,you appear to be a "tjank balie".Were you ever around when "king Karl" won the July with a great ride on Flaming Rock to name but one great ride. Must agree with Bob regarding his ride on Hot Ticket.Again I say I will rather put my tom on Karl than most of these wannabe jockeys.(and I`m not related to Karl in case you wonder)

Just out of interest when what year did "the king" win on Flaming Rock?

Guys Im sure this is not the first time this has come up I firmly believe karl is not the stongest wen its comes to fighting out a finish but I for one love watching him ride his change of crop frm left to right hand and his balance is excellent and im certain many trainers use him to get feedback on there horses.He does not punish horses in saying all this I think I have lost loads of money backing him but that does not make him a useless jockey im just a stupid punter.

We shouldn't be just digging Karl out,it's about age and we're all getting older.
He's done plenty of great things we will never do.I just think it's such a tough job that you need to have razor sharp reflexes and a rapid thought process.
