    Well he got the job done but wouldn't say it was amazing. Found very little when asked to go

    Plenty of them didn’t see out the trip but Samcro did it easily.

    Vision Des Flos appeared to be right in amongst it then looked really tired and leggy from the last hurdle.

    Given it had the wind op recently, I'm a bit disappointed

    I'd call that pretty impressive. Wandered about a bit coming up the hill, which must have given hope to Black Ops backers, but that was an emphatic victory in difficult conditions.

    Agree. I think Black Op deserves praise too - would have been closer but for the last flight error.

    He was absolutely cruising and when he breezed past them I thought my go what an animal but as soon as jockey kicked and asked to go away he just didn't appear to find much. Terrible error at last by runner up spoilt what could have been a much closer finish. It won and that's what matters, I'm just not sure we've seen the second coming of Pegasus like was being hyped

    Take you point, but I think we'll be seeing plenty of decent animals struggling to hit the afterburners coming up that hill this week.
