So just for clarity, is everyone in the tracing community off limits, or only certain ones. There have been posts on here calling some jocks cheats etc with no consequences, which is a lot worse than saying that maybe a once great jock is passed his best.

Go and have a look at some UK forums and you will see the abuse some jockeys get,especially Jamie Spencer.I am not condoning it but the people on those forums aren't scared to say exactly what they think about some rides.

Debi, if any jockey smacks a horse hard it would be Bling....any the bulk of the Tarry runners have won multiple times so I disagree with the above....

Anton has so few charges for whip misuse (I'm not sure how many if any) - I hear this from people often but the facts suggest otherwise - I have seen Anton take a baby down slowly sowing it the course on many occassions- If he was as hard on horses that a few people believe then every week he would be called in by the stipes and he would not be working for Mayfair

If you watch him nurse Graduate to a win in the first race Greyville then I wonder how many lesser riders would have panicked and cut that horse in half over the final 400m - I think the notion that he hurts babies is a myth
