Really annoyed with frankel dettori (in game) right now. Just had a star sprinter who was the winner of golden shaheed and diamond jubilee, and was the best horse in the July cup. Most of te time unless I feel it needs a specific instruction I let the jockey choose riding style, and as Frankie had ridden it every time held up I just clicked don't trail and ran the race. To my horror I saw it go straight to the front , and at the end of the race, faded in the last couple of strides and lost the race. Of corse, it went on to win all teh other 6f g1 races but had lost its unbeaten record for the season. Really annoyed!

Re: Jockey orders
ctrl-alt-delete... That's all I have to say. I have told jockey's to either 'restrain early' or 'hold up' and they have come back after leading all the way saying 'Early pace. The horse didn't appear to stay this trip, we were well outclassed'! I wonder if it's a bug?
I would have CRT alt del but I hadn't saved for several months and had some pretty good results behind me- had to grin and bear it. Fair enough, I hadnt given a specific instruction bar dont trail but this was completely out of the blue and selecting don't trail hasnt prompted it before.
