Back to listsWas Castilian Given A Neat Ride?
By Smart-still-poor-punter | 29-Apr-2019Hi Friends,
I was feeling sad to see the ride given by P Trevor on 'Castilian' in the Nilgiris 2000 Guineas. The squeezing he suffered on the rails just before the final bend was unwanted and no matured rider would risk taking that gap which was not available there. He almost lost his balance and was about to bang against the rails. That the animal had so much left in the tank to easily come out and sail past in the closing stages means Trevor must have been more considerate on this wonderful horse, isn't it?
