Seeing is believing! Drill Sergeant was around 15 lengths clear when he decided to pull himself up heading out for the final circuit at Haydock in October 2010, and dropped to last place. However, he quickly made up the ground he lost and ended up winning the race! A P McCoy at his brilliant best 👏

He got so far ahead, he wanted his buddies to catch up. Also good job by the jockey, just letting the horse do his thing. He rode him soft which paid off.

@adminwin6661 Год назад

My observation as well - good jockey, not whipping the horse, allowing him to slow down, recognizeing his need to be with the herd.

@@karinbradbrook7291 The whips that are legally required to be used in races are barely felt by the horses, it just makes a popping sound. It’s like being hit with a pool noodle.

@charliewhon6548 Год назад

In my early adult life, I was an exercise jockey at a thoroughbred race barn. There was a filly there who was highly talented, but never won a race, because she would do the same thing. She would get so far ahead, and then seem to get nervous out there in front, then sink back into last place just to come in second place every time. She could have easily won any race, most times she wasn’t even very winded at the end of a race, but we all decided she just didn’t like being in the lead. It was heartbreaking to see such talent and not be able to help her. She went on to be a brood mare. I changed jobs before her foal ever raced, so I have no idea if he was any better.

@rosesmith6208 Год назад

she was not high horse of the herd, she was alone and being alone means a predator would pick her out for attack they dont know they are running to win races or what not, allthey know is higher or lower and where is safty. hitting with whips and pulling on a pain bit means this trend is even more pronounced in the horses mind. it means life or death to be with the herd and be near the lead horse to avoid being picked off.

@rosesmith6208 Год назад

also add to my other comments the herd was way behind a h erd or other horses create a draw that is why you can get horses to go places tht frighten them if you use a lead horse that is confident who can draw the horse across scarey things. this herd was a draw to the lead horse he doesnt care abot winning a stupid race but about his safty and rank in the herd.
