Afternoon all and good luck The Don with Harristown - couldn't resist lumbering him with a few Euros ...............
well what on earth happened in the 440 @ wincanton? wonder who got fingers burnt "buying money" on Lincoln County in running?????
4:40 Race @ Wincanton well worth watching the replay! Never seen awt like it in all my racing puff!!!! I had a couple of YoYos on the beautiful Emma's horse
Ha ha!! I expect some of those penny pinching laying syndicates feel a little sore after that. Anyone know what it was matched at?
Think the expression "penny dropped" is a fair 1 here. Jesus he fairly sprouted wings, what do people make of that? A beast of a horse who looks the real deal and just needs his mentality sorted out or he beat a bunch of absolute nobodies giving them an extra 20-30 lengths on top of it.
It was certainly spectacular, I would just be careful about reading too much into it as the ground was absolutely dreadful. I'd certainly have him down as a thorough stayer though
I don't know....perhaps you just don't listen to your Uncle Stick! Howler from HARRISTOWN today and the feedback is that it was just too deep and he was never at the races! He is fine though and should be out again soon on slightly better ground.
Craziest bumper ever seen! Jockey obviously thought it had gone wrong. Amazing that it got going again to such good effect.
In a post race interview on RUK Aidan Coleman said the horse cocked its its jaw turning in, his whip got stuck & as soon as he freed it & changed into his left hand the horse responded, he didn't realise how far he was behind until he saw the replay & was riding for a place! He also said they think a lot of the horse at home....nearly as much as the guy's on not606 think of the beautiful Emma
Evening all, as Stick says didn't go a yard and hated the ground. It was ridiculously deep, didn't hardly stop raining all afternoon. See how wide some of the horses went looking for fresh ground. He seemed fine and perky after the race so nothing seems to be amiss, scoped virtually clean too. Hopefully be out next week all being well.
