    2 runner race

    Doom 1/25
    Karmology 9/1

    Karmology wins by a length.

    If anyone was stupid enough to back Doom, at least the name was grimly appropriate.

    Betfair SPs were 1.05 (1/20) Doom and 17.81 (16/1) the winner.

    Both fixed odds translations before commission and/or approximate.

    She claims the unwanted record of the shortest priced loser in the history of British racing, albeit jointly. Royal Forest was turned over at 1/25 at Ascot in 1948!

    Somewhat poetic that the 1/25 loser was called doom and the winner karmology

    Found it highly amusing myself but maybe I’m just a weirdo

    William Haggas not only trained the 1/25 loser, he also trained the dam of the winner. Who was beaten in maidens at 10/11, 6/4 and 7/4 before a win on the Fibresand at Southwell at 5/1.

    Was it Eddie Freemantle who said? It’s best to stay clear of names describing something bad.
    Because the owner may have seen something in the horse’s temperament before naming the horse.

    We’re all DOOMed.

    Do many horses not handle the Ripon undulations between the 3f and 2f mark and exhibit an unwieldy carriage there? According to Wiki Redcar is purported to be the only Straight Mile
    in the UK that is straight and level. No excuses on that front this afternoon!

    You would like to think the Doyle/Watson horse could show more than on debut and at 14’s he would be the bet.

    What price would Doom be if he’d won at ripon?

    Mike, how much of the 6/4 did you help yourself to that day?

    Wasn’t a total shock.
    The horse who couldn’t win against the horse who therefore couldn’t lose.
    Karmology runs tonight shortly and again faces an odds on opponent despite again being unbeaten.
