    frankie was in the perfect position, dont know what j murtagh was thinking i think he was trying the same tactics used on man of iron, you cannot give that much ground at this track, especially on the turf!

    I hate to piss on this bonfire, but surely now people have got to realise what crap this is. Just a dire, dire decision to run this on pro-ride. I mean ffs, the last 2 races have both provided ‘one of the biggest shocks in Breeders’ Cup history’. Dreadful.

    You piss on a lot of bonfires. We’re used to it. :lol:

    Its a type of american pool. I standed corrected though, i only realised after i posted that it wasnt even the championship, it was in fact a quarter final of the championship, and it was won by what looked like rose west’s sister. Then they showed some 30 mins of pre recorded Red Bull breakdancing program and started breeders cup coverage just before the juvenile…. :evil:

    Ryan Moore having a bad night. I had a BIG bet on Awesome Act and can’t help but think he was the best horse in the race. Also not his finest hour on Beethoven. Let’s hope he gets it right on Conduit.

    I’ve had a terrible night’s betting

    Furthest Land just made things a bit more interesting for me, gutted that Courageous Cat ended up taking second and Noble Promise was 3rd after looking like the winner down the run in, but thats cheered me up a bit. Horrible start to the night though.

    Rip Van Wink is 10/1 on the US parimutuel at the moment.
    US bettors not too inspired with Ballydoyle form so far.

    No surprise. Zacinto, Delegator, Mastercraftsman all not good enough and the only run that makes him actually look top class is his Eclipse outing, which probably flatters him anyway.

    Mastercraftsman would not go through that hole. That’s a shame. Of course what can I say about Goldikova. Brilliant. I’m so ecstatic right now for her connections. She’s a special one. I sure hope they keep her in training. My girl Gotta Have Her ran well but nobody was gonna catch California Flag today. He left the gate and never looked back. Conduit ran the same race he did last year. Moore did exactly what he needed to do and that was keep an eye on Precious Passion who ran his heart out. He just got caught at the line. A great run by him.

    Comfortably some of the worst horsemanship I’ve ever seen. That ‘loading’ of Quality Road was utterly dire.

    It did look a bit half hearted
