Ruby Walsh, what a fantastic jockey this guy is, AP can only wish he was in the same class.

Oh my days.

Carney,

What is the crack with Neptune? Took the price at 11/2, it's gone out to 15/2 and now back to 13/2, bearing in mind I saw it this morning at 5s?????

Probably just being eased out slightly because money has come for Denman and Barbers Shop.

AP only wins the top jock because he rides odds on fav's during the week.

Ruby's record especially in the high profile race's speaks for itself.

If you compare Ruby's rides, he has the pick of the Mullins stable and pretty much the pick of the Nicholls stable.

Geraghty is stable jockey for Henderson although McCoy does get some good rides due to his retainer with JP McManus.

I think Walsh has the pick of better rides than McCoy, that is for sure.

As for riding odds on favs during the week, yes, Teeming Rain at Exeter that he brought home at 20/1 recently was awful value.

Weight of money for the others as Gaz says. There's been decent (ie. some shrewd punters) money for Exotic Dancer and Kauto Star this morning so if you lay Kauto you push something else out to lay that - the obvious ones are the second and third in.

You lay Neptune and Denman - there's been a few quid for Denman too so it was NC that was pushed out.
