    Second consecutive superb ride Dickie Johnson has given The Last Bridge for him mother off a featherweight. Great to see

    Harry looked bang in trouble when he went, Ruperts race hadnt even started, and the run of The Real Article suggests he would have went very close.

    He didn't look in trouble.

    The facts are that the entire country backed my good thing from 6/4 into odds on. He fell. It happens. You then started with Boris' Bad Banter because I'd joked about your crap odds on duffer the day before.

    Rupert Lamb is merely one of many young chasers with Mullins that can't jump.

    Harry was an odds on plodder, he was sending out major distress signals before fluffing his lines, obviously the untrained eye of the mug favourite backers on Saturday couldnt see the writing on the wall.

    The McCoy Curtis partnership has been very successful but they're not interested in this bumper.should be interesting to see if AP lets him run or not.

    Anybody referring to themselves in the third person, particularly if assigning themselves a nickname, goes on my ignore list. Sorry.

    Well,he certainly was backed,into 4/1 fav but never looked comfortable on the tight track and probobly could have done with a stronger gallop...well beaten fourth in the end up which was very disappointing given the market confidence.

    Above all,he isn't very good but he will win a race with such shrewd connections and will repay those who punted on him today.

    Good shout with Barton Stick <ok>

    He wasn't odds on but he was nowhere near 2/1. 5/2, 9/4 on the day. You must be joking. The King regains his crown and the Champ takes it to the bank.
