What a lovely girl she is. Dad must be very proud Horses seem to do more for Bryony than other riders. Its as if they just pull out more for a best friend

[@Formula1Madx]

Bryony & Frodon are great ambassadors for NH racing. Genuinely happy for them both 👍

[@edwardbroomhead4463]

Bryony and Frodon both deserve more respect. You listen to some other jockey interviews and they could put even insomniacs to sleep they are that dull. Let’s go Bryony and Frodon!!!

[@chrishodgson6302]

Bryony is great. I am so pleased she has been rewarded with another big day with fab Frodon.

[@bigfan2710]

Bryony conveys her enthusiasm so well. Interviews so much better than say the Ryan Moore's of this world. She deserves her success and none of the flack she gets.

[@CFreeJ]

The two best in racing right now, what a team them two are!

[@markignatius7234]

That was some ride by Bryony. That will get the haters in the weighing room all worked up.

[@thorpeylad9822]

Oh yes, the haters will be hurt by that and more angry, well done both today

[@davidsheridan1699]

Yeah beating the bullies !

[@thecockerel86]

I don't think I've seen Bryony give a poor interview yet. She always has so much to say and her love for the game comes across so well. As for Frodon, thank you!💷

[@richardrouse1873]

What a fantastic combination pleasure to watch them in action always gives the horse all the praise

[@thorpeylad9822]

Dreams keep coming true and It felt very emotional watching

[@mauiwowi4841]

I come from an era where you just wouldn't back a horse if it had a female jockey. How times change. Bryony, Rachael, Hollie are breathing much needed fresh air into the sport and long may it continue.

[@martinuglow116]

Frodon has a great heart but Bryony knows him so well. They are a pair made in Devon (and Somerset). And as B said, Paul N's role shouldn't be overlooked. Extremely fit first time out and picked the right race. Well done all three. Also, great interview and was B picking up a bit of the Irish accent there? 😊

[@suemaher5282]

Nicholls should be praised for travelling his horses doesn't wrap them up and only race them here. The reason the Irish are so gd is they race against each other are competitive. Have great horses and jockeys. Paul Nicholls pinched one here bringing Frodon he deserves it for doing that alone. Great days racing.

[@alanito77orourke14]

great ride ,well done girl,congratulations

[@grudeman]

Great jockey and an amazing horse! Frodan has really become a public favorite in the last 2 years he gives everything and has genuine class.

[@tomcjuggins]

What a lovely humble and respectable girl she is

[@martinalscott]

Delighted for Byrony, she is a very good jockey. Not good that the other jockeys didn't congratulate her, she is standing up for herself and more power to her.

[@uhegbu]

So to the Grade 1 Champion Chase and five runners lined up. Frodon led from the start and all of a sudden, four runners were in close contention as the race came to a conclusion. Minella Indo faded and Frodon's last challenger was Galvin and Bryony Frost's mount did enough to record an emotional and thrilling victory. She, Paul Nicholls and connections have had their day in the sun. Watched Sunday's racing as well including the Cork Grand National in awful conditions.

[@uhegbu]

Haldon Gold Cup at Exeter and Melbourne Cup in Australia. I will watch them both on Saturday. Enjoy.

[@peterdawson3428]

What a great horse and rider combination

[@mikemcknight1295]

I'm delighted for Bryony, 'cause she really shows her heart on her sleeve and emphasises what a thrill riding a winner is, and we punters can feel her passion too when our few quid is on. Bryony is great for racing!

[@theenforcersimonballs2941]

I could listen to her all day, She speaks so well. Love Frodon and the way he battles till the very end

[@vimtocrazy739]

Terrific Ride. Made for each other.

[@davidsheridan1699]

Frost and frodon what a team , paul Nicholls will be proud of them both 👏 👍

[@johnralston5164]

Well done Bryony, you are a great jockey simple as that! Frodon is just superb!!

[@Marjopolo302]

Ride of the year. Unbelievable jeff.

[@robertdelacy3434]

Its oct dont be silly

[@uhegbu]

Saturday's racing and before the Grade 1 feature at Down Royal, let me wrap up the other races. At Newmarket, Kawida (getting the better of 80-1 runner, Flash Betty, another runner pulled up roughly halfway through the contest), Bay Bridge (in another close finish) and Zakouski (perhaps the most impressive winner on the day) were the feature winners on the card. At Wetherby, Indefatigable won the feature staying Grade 2 hurdle race where former champion stayer Paisley Park finished third. The race was led most of the way by Master Tommytucker. Feature race at the course was the Charlie Hall Chase, a race with stellar names like One Man and See More Business. Paul Nicholls, who trained the latter great chaser during the late 1990s/early 2000s had a runner called Cyrname who was going well but Shan Blue took the lead into the home straight for the final time with a clear advantage. Cyrname eventually pulled up but Shan Blue fell at one of the fences leaving Fusil Raffles to score in a dramatic race. So to Down Royal and Fil Dor romped away with the opening hurdle race and a similar result in the Grade 2 chase, the return of Envoi Allen and winning jockey Rachael Blackmore got a pat on the back.

[@tonydee9850]

You little tinkers.well done

[@davidharrison9501]

im sure the horse would be useless any other jockey he certainly tries for her. great combination. as she says wants to win. BOTH

[@MegaCash27]

Best of luck to you going forward Bryony cos your gonna need it. You simply don't go running to authorities and spill your guts on fellow jockeys. You should have dealt with it yourself. I bet the weighing room is a very lonely place now

[@Kess-ry9gz]

Great ride??? Bryony was just a passenger. She gets on well with the horse, but most of the credit, should go to Frodon. He looked in trouble, when the others loomed up to challenge, but he kept finding more. Fantastic little horse!

[@jimmycorkhill2397]

This comment shows you know absolutely nothing you spineless weasel

[@johnhannington3240]

Really not sure where you get passenger from, watch the race again and you you will see that Bryony Frost rides a very clever race, gives the horse a breather then injects a little pace and does that several times. She knows that the horse will respond and she rode him to just about perfection
