I flagged up Kingfisher early on during the week and backed him Ew at 12s but fear Mizzou! Time Test/Pleasnach double 6/1 Lefy Phil 20s Ew in golfy
Another great ride from RM. AO'B looked shocked and the horse looked a big of an old dog tbf in Ireland. Faster ground the key maybe and another winner for Zoffany after Washington DC on Tuesday. They are clearly trying to elevate the sire's profile and it's working so far.
it just goes to show that you can never tell with these 2 year old horses. Buratino and now Waterloo Bridge have clearly progressed faster this month than Log out Island and King of Rooks
FFS why did I bother saying anything, O'Brien horse wins@12/1, lost it's maiden tag on it's 4th start! Hope to get my money back with Forgotten Rules.
No doubt that Hannon’s pair cut each other’s throats. They set the race up for the hold-up horses, as has happened a couple of times this week on the straight course. How appropriate a winner was Waterloo Bridge today, 18th June 2015? Liz can give Ryan Moore the top jockey trophy now. It has been a one jockey race.
King of Rooks has cost me money but there is a certain satisfaction in the result on a few levels. Firstly Hannon has been incredibly naïve if indeed able to have an influence in running two such fancied animals against each other, not may trainers would have done that - it is then this decision that looks at the root of the problem as without the other I believe the other would have won. on another level even with both running, were Hughsie on either I believe that one would have won, one thing Hughsie does not do is get in a battle for the lead. They broke the rule of never ever doing that. It's also satisfying as I don't like the big powers buying other peoples success and so the is a certain justice to that also.
