I commented on this before the incident and i'm not going to get in a debate with you about how good of a pilot of a horse he is. But, you cannot excuse what he did, the ban was to short, and the camera doesn't lie. And no wizardry, just a stupid thing, not making an excuse, but we've all done things that we're not proud of, and I hope he feels like a pile of shit, but I doubt it unfortunately. Will I support him, yes, because if he is on something that I feel has a good chance, I will back the HORSE. But as a big fan of Davy Russell, I feel extremely let down. But prior to this incident, Davy's been riding very well, and ofcourse I'll support him, but this incident pisses me off just as much as it has pissed you off. Watch Sean Leveys punch at Kempton, they deserve to be put in the spotlight and reprimanded, its on RUclips.
I hear you Dan and I have seen Sean Levey's punch too. I thank you for your honesty, however having crossed the line in public it is hard to believe that they both don't do worse behind closed doors. I personally think they should both be banned from being near animals for life.
Where do you live Jake? I'd like to check if your story is true then have you prosecuted. I see you're having trouble spelling so perhaps get Mummy to help you write your address just so we get it correct.
Davy by getting the sack was very public. Even some radio stations who only refer to horses when Cheltenham came, brought it up on their programmes. One in particular was Last Word on today Fm. Credit to Russell, it took it with grace. Low and behold Gigginstown had to come calling when their new boy got injured, and won Group 1 on Clarcam.
@Ger Maher I can appreciate that biology classes are few and far between in horse bullying school, but we are all animals. And yes, before you ask any more simpleton questions, I do breathe and I do use my eyes to see. What I don't do is bully horses by punching them in the face. Do you?
Such a great rider. Loved his ride round the X Coutry course at Cheltenham when he was the only rider who bothered to find out that you were allowed to cut the corner !
Vegan Radio You are a fucking goon 😂😂 A horse is a very strong and tough animal. A slap of a whip would probaly bother the horse more so than a tap to the head. He had to make the horse behave himself otherwise the horse could have flipped him over the fence and could have seriously hurt him.
So Lee on the one hand you are saying _'a tap to the head'_ wouldn't bother the horse whilst on the other hand you are saying the same _'tap'_ made _'the horse behave himself'_ . Which is it Lee? Either it was violent enough to cause the horse to not _'have flipped him over the fence'_ or it was not.
Davy your a class act and a credit to your profession you must be having a little smile to yourself every time you go out and win on the giggestown colors especially after the way you were treated by you know who . Secondly you should give Ruby Walsh a few tips on how to be a class act because you are streets ahead of him long may it continue for you
@@amywright8184 he beat a horse!! Punched it!! He thought he was off camera, He wasn't!! Absolutely no excuse, and he must've used his fists on horses , before, not a one off.
A great interview , seems like a very genuine down to earth person . The jury is still out though on whether he rides horses on their merits all the time
Lauren Coppinger he Davy R. has Everything to win a tace. walsh is f. stupid and not LUCKY. But my best my a neck is PAUL CARBERRY never had the Grade 1 horses asreh. walsh sits on. A.P. Mac Coy 85 Grade 1 wins, Careless walsh 185 Grade 1 wins. Q. What does that Stat tell you if u have any brains? Mac coy wasn't on top top horses like over rated walsh was. Mac coy had to ride THOUSANDS of donkeys. While walsh was sitting on the cream of N.H. horses.
Great fellow, great heart (Cork born ). D.H. won the €250,000 Galway Plate (chase) yesterday wed. 2 aug. '17. I always liked him, Paul C., and Puppy Power. I don't like walsh lost on ANNIE POWER and a Champion Hur. Hurricane. walsh cost my best friend a win as a trainer. Big head big mouth walsh "thought" he knew how to ride the race no listen to little trainer "2nd" like last in a horse race. So we get medium rated jockeys now. That Do as yhey are told" sit up in the first 4 at D.p.
Sound as a pound. A phenomenal rider and a humble gent. His ride on Lord Windermere was one of the best ever.
One of the very best!
And he's still going hard at it! Great jockey!
Davy is in the top 5 of jump jockeys out there class act he is
Good informative video about him.
The man is a wizard, top jockey, good value at Cheltenham festival the last couple of years!!!
he is not a man he is a bully who bullies defenceless animals. Where was the wizardry when he punched Kings Dolly? Do you support that Dan Flint?

@@veganradio7432 i scrolled through the comments and after hours I still can’t find where I asked for your opinion?
@@veganradio7432 also Have you ever even ridden a horse before?
what a lovely chap
Such a great rider. Loved his ride round the X Coutry course at Cheltenham when he was the only rider who bothered to find out that you were allowed to cut the corner !
Davy you were a magic jockey
Best jockey on the planet
You support jockeys who punch horses they ride do you?
Vegan Radio yeah I do he's a great jockey and it's my opinion so fuck off
So you support animal abuse, nice guy. And what if it had been your wife, mother or daughter he had punched in the face?
Vegan Radio You are a fucking goon 😂😂 A horse is a very strong and tough animal. A slap of a whip would probaly bother the horse more so than a tap to the head. He had to make the horse behave himself otherwise the horse could have flipped him over the fence and could have seriously hurt him.

What kind of person calls someone who bullies defenceless animals _'a class act'_ and _'a credit to your profession'_ ?
@@veganradio7432 well if it was abusive dont ya think it would be banned?
@@amywright8184 he beat a horse!!
Punched it!!
He thought he was off camera,
He wasn't!!
Absolutely no excuse, and he must've used his fists on horses ,
before, not a one off.
What great fella, brilliant video too.
As good a horseman you will ever see, innate understanding of horses that you can’t teach.
The 1 he rode in Ireland (drunk) and finished second, horse primed for the race 👀
A great interview , seems like a very genuine down to earth person .
The jury is still out though on whether he rides horses on their merits all the time
gave 100 percent always

Never here about this jockey . U want to ride in jamaica
Davy Russell should be ashamed of himself for punching a young horse in the head and caught on TV. YOU DONT DO THAT.
Ap is
Blah Michel o'Leary
First
He a okay jockey but nowhere near a great
Jackass
What an idiot
Take your head out of the clouds what else has he to do
Sure I’d like to see you earn millions and ride a skitzo horse over 1m40 hurdles
He's a cheat, dodgiest jock riding, seen him on more non triers and dodgy rides than anyone
spleeeen4it and he punched that horse in the head the piece of shit
@@deadxretardz so you agree with punching horses in the head then. Twat
