Ok I’ve had a very humiliating encounter with a jockey and his trainer at aintree, now I’m still cringing about it 14 years later mainly due to me being with the wife and my first lad who was still in his buggy. I’ve just mentioned it to the wife and she’s crying laughing about it.
twas on a Sunday and at the time I was well into my horse racing and my favourite jockey/trainer partnership was McCoy and jonjo, now over the years I’d bombarded the missus about them so you can imagine how excited I was to be stood in the paddock and who do I spot yes yes it was them, I’m nudging the Mrs excitedly and manoeuvring the buggy round to where they were, they were the last two in the paddock, mcnob was sat upon a horse called wachita linam and jonjo was giving him his race instructions it was 13-8 fav. Woohoo I shout over good luck tony, now they both looked over at me like I was a big bit of walking shite and said nothing but continued to stare me out, I didn’t know what to do the wife was laughing as I dropped my head in shame and quickly turned the buggy round and scuttled off. What a prick no fucking need, never backed the tit again
Oh dear
does that mean you missed his National win on Don’t Push It?’ – I was balls deep on that one – result!Yeah mate couldn’t back the tit after that, but oh I laughed like a lunatic when he was thrown off his horse the year before in the national?

Don’t u worry lad i’m sure the horse appreciated your words of encouragement. Are you referring to the horse Witchita Linesman, that horse was a bit of a star to my recollection.
Yeah that’s it mate, it won that day and at Cheltenham same day katchit and kauri star won.
The brave little katchit 10/1 I think. Champion hurdle always been my favourite race.
