    Honest opinion:

    Dump the horse

    He's stuck with Attwater and he's a terrible trainer no matter how you cut it. The chap must have cost you boys thousands with his 'working great' 'massive chance' chat. If he believes the messages he's sending out then he doesn't have a clue about placing horses.

    Ridden too far off the very slow pace. The one who missed the break comes from last to first. I really can't understand that ride.

    Dropped out the back as they crawled round, unable to quicken in the straight and plugged on for fifth. From a tactical point of view probably the worst ride he could have been given.

    ****ing Crowley. Where's Rob Havlin. Poor Buzz has to have his ball chopped off because of Crowley. Get a proper jockey I say.

    Fusion - I'm not joining your bandwagon old boy. I actually think your chat on here is awful.

    Just my genuine opinion about the trainer really which Stick will take in the way it was intended.

    Crowley is one of the best jockeys in the business though Ron.

    Beginning to think it's more than a jockey issue, as Boston said maybe it's the trainer. Attwater does have the ****ty derek shaw feel about him

    Stick him with Dean Ivory Stick, bet he'll have him winning in no time

    Or Ken O'Cunningham-Brown.

    Another good relatively unknown trainer, same with M Chapman

    There's only so many times you can blame the jockey I'm afraid. These different jockeys can't be ignoring the instructions every time. I think we all have a soft spot for the horse due to the connection to the forum but maybe the truth of it is, he's just not good enough.

    No. It's the jockey. Get Rob Havlin back on him and see the difference. You might well be right about the trainer though; nice bloke though he undoubtedly is.

    Rob Havlin hasn't done great on him recently though has he Ron. And Crowley is better than Havlin, even earlier in the day at Chepstow the rides he gave the Ed De Giles horses were absolute peaches.

    I did point out the other week that in my opinion Squire should just drop down a class, get a few wins under it's belt then go back up to the Class 3's and 4's, got to remember it's never actually won higher than a class 5. Clearly a good horse, but been over a year and a bit since it's last win, really needs that confidence of a win under it's belt.

    Anyway, sure stick & co will come up with the best plan, must be so frustrating because it's clearly a good enough horse, there's just an underlying issue somewhere. Not a fan of Attwater whatsoever though.

    Horse going nowhere, Attwater syndicated horse I believe. I just don't think the trainer is firing, watch his next runners

    Just a poor mans Olly Stevens.

    Keep the faith gents, horse didn't get run of race and to me didn't like Epsom either. Down in handicap after that too.
