    Brilliant by Vautour. Better to win one than place in one. Go on Smokey <ok>

    Brilliant horse.

    **** of an owner. Put everybody away the prick did. Still think he'd have been 15L clear at the last in the Gold Cup. Still don't know whether he got home <laugh>

    I wasn't going to back him but he looked so well. If they'd said after Kempton "he won't get the gold cup trip so we're going Ryanair" he'd have been 1/3 today - remember how he travelled at Kempton. Ricci has done us punters a favour, evens is a fecking bargain there <ok>

    He's done the day players a good turn and that's about it. Personally I think it a real shame to have a horse of his ability only winning intermediate Grade 1s but that's a debate for another day. It was kinda like Barcelona playing the Europa League winners. Nice enough on paper but no one remembers it.

    Anyway, World Hurdle time. Hope Thistlecrack wins by 10L but think Cole Harden goes close.

    Your probably right to be fair, a lot must have opposed him though cause of the bad vibes, hence the price.
