    Ran a good race once again, leading all they way in until they got to the home straight where the horse just tired very badly. Maybe she set too brisk a tempo at the head of affairs, I wouldn't write her off on today's evidence just yet, a more experienced jockey back on board and in less extreme heavy condtions, she will do OK.

    The winner, Fakir, was superb to be fair and also tipped on here, so glad to see someone make a few bob from it <ok>

    Be hard to see much action taking place tomorrow but rule nothing out given they went in it today. Enjoy your Saturday evening folks.

    what an embarrassment jump racing is at times, pointless races in ploughed fields, Cyrname ran with the choke out most of the way and literally didnt have the energy to jump the last, almost broke his neck

    the time was 14 seconds slower than the winners previous course and distance win on ground described as heavy

    I only watched the replay, can count on fingers the number of jump races ive watched since christmas, most of it utterly unappealing as a spectacle or for a bet

    it’s a different discipline to the flat , the only thing in common is it involves horses , turf , and jockeys .......obviously it will be slower, but a whole different game.......as for saying it’s unappealing , that’s your subjective view .....i find a lot of flat racing even more boring .....but i wouldn’t come on here and moan about it .....
