    I don't think I've ever seen anything like this for a build up - not even with Frankel. This is awesome.

    They wont be able to see her at the end cyc!!

    I hope, above all, that with the eyes of the wider public watching all horses are able to come home safe. Racing doesn't need another grand national type event.

    Agreed! Probably because we have seen Frankel alot and we know what we are going to see, there is a bit of uncertainty here even though we all know she should romp in.

    You want your 1/6 shots to win a bit easier than that!

    She should of won by a length and a half but the form does not suggest she is this all time great on that showing. Dayjur would of beat them 6L easily.

    Does this increase or decrease the chances of her running in the July cup? On the one hand they now have something to prove and know she could go quicker if the jockey wasnt trying to make her look impressive. On the other hand I could see why they'd want to scarper home
