Jets star Brandon Marshall wins civil assault suit

Mark Lennihan/AP Brandon Marshall left the courthouse once the case went to the jury and did not return, so he was not in the room when the verdict was read. Jets wide receiver Brandon Marshall won the civil suit levied against him by a California woman in Manhattan federal court for assault and battery on Friday. Christin Myles, who accused Marshall of punching her in the face outside the Marquee nightclub on Mar. 11, 2012, sought at least $75,000 in damages for her medical expenses and her pain and suffering. The jury deliberated for just over an hour before

Myers: Ferguson leaving money, saving health in retirement

Maddie Meyer/Getty Images While he spoke candidly about concussions in December, D’Brickashaw Ferguson was never diagnosed with one in his 10-year career. D’Brickashaw Ferguson is 32 years old and played 10 years in the NFL and the only snap he missed in his career came on a trick play. So, he is not part of the epidemic of young players in the last two years who are getting out of the NFL early rather than risk brain injury, even though it’s before they max out on their earnings potential. Ferguson made $67 million with the Jets and never was

Jets trade for Broncos' Ryan Clady to replace D’Brickashaw

Kathy Willens/AP Broncos offensive lineman Ryan Clady blocks for Knowshon Moreno. That was fast. On the same day D’Brickashaw Ferguson made his retirement official, the Jets traded for his replacement, dealing for former Broncos tackle Ryan Clady, according to a source. Gang Green is giving up a 2016 fifth-round pick in exchange for the tackle and will also receive a 2016 seventh-rounder, according to a source. Those are the same terms the Jets struck with the Bears a year ago in a deal for wide receiver Brandon Marshall. Clady, a four-time Pro Bowler, started 16 games in 2014 for

Advocate blasts Greg Hardy’s clueless, harmful stance

Ric Tapia/AP Greg Hardy denies ever assaulting women in an interview he did with ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Domestic violence experts responded with dismay Tuesday to disgraced football star Greg Hardy’s claim in an ESPN interview that violence against women is “nonexistent in most southern homes.” “Domestic violence does not discriminate, it impacts every race, geographic region, educational background,” Katie Ray-Jones, the CEO of the National Domestic Violence Hotline, tells the Daily News. “It knows no boundaries. It’s a reg resilient issue that people don’t talk about.” Hardy, who was suspended four games last season over evidence that he battered

Smashing and Jonathan Burke

Smashing wins his second Grade 2 this season at odds of 9-4

Report: Navan, Saturday

Webster Cup Chase (Grade 2), 2m4f, 5yo+

SMASHING may not have fared as well as Road To Riches in the Ryanair Chase at the Cheltenham Festival, pulling up while that rival finished third, but the tables were turned at Navan as Henry de Bromhead’s chaser bounced back to form to register a game success.

Smashing, back on his favoured soft surface, was bounced out into the lead by Jonathan Burke and showed a good attitude to repel the challenge of Road To Riches, who loomed alongside at the third-last and threw down a persistent challenge.

Smashing crossed the line half a length to the good, while Foxrock flew home to finish a never-threatening third, a further three-quarters of a length behind.

Prolific winner

It was Smashing’s fourth win from his last five starts and his second win at Grade 2 level. However, this was the most significant victory of Smashing’s career as it was achieved against a dual Grade 1 winner in Road To Riches.

Road To Riches, who boasted the stronger form, was sent off as the 4-5 favourite – while Smashing was next best in the market at 9-4.

‘Kept picking up’

“He is just so effective on that sort of ground. He ran a great race to the top of the hill at Cheltenham but the ground just took its toll from there,” rider Jonathan Burke said. “He is probably not a quick horse but on this sort of ground he gallops and jumps and does everything right.”

Burke added: “Road To Riches was bang on my tail the whole way around. I could feel him, but my lad just kept picking up every time he felt him come near him.

“When Davy [on Road To Riches] took me on over the third-last, he quickened up again. He was really good at all the fences in the home straight.”

Punchestown for Riches

Noel Meade, trainer of Road To Riches, said: “When the rain came I was worried. I am obviously disappointed that he has been beaten but he has run well. He will go for the Punchestown Gold Cup now.”

Road To Riches finished third to Don Cossack at Punchestown last year, and Gordon Elliott’s Cheltenham Gold Cup winner could again be among the opposition.
