    The lad who rode Thomas Hobbs may have been riding to instructions but it is near impossible to win from the rear 11 wide at Flemington.

    To top it off he hit the horse 7 times than added another 4 when clearly he wasn't going to get even close to winning...I believe he was fined a few thousand dollars aus.

    Great result for team Europe.
    All comers, all grounds, all beaten!

    This perfect mix of poetry and destruction.
