    I’m on Enable at 5/1 (mentioned earlier in the thread) am obviously very happy with that position now…but forget the money my heart wants her to win! My favourite silks, horse, trainer and jockey! Tears will flow in this part of The Black Country if she does it.

    Not necessarily mike, she got the run round she wanted, thats how shes ridden, the gaps opened at thenright time

    But a proper proper group 1 filly

    Enable was very keen early, what a warrior. Only one prep, what a horse, an absolute great

    Surely a better draw and she’s midfield though ham. Just my initial opinion

    Sea of Class you were A-Maze-ing :heart:
    Won the race just after the post.
    What a race and Enable duly deserves her win but have to say she was lucky.

    I understand what your saying for sure, but even with a better draw she would have been reigned right back, that bhow shes been ridden in all of her races, but maybe your right, what a turn of foot she shown though.

    Sea of Class very unlucky; but Enable had the tactical speed to make the most of her good draw.

    Enable seemed to be out on her feet in the closing stages with everything – not just Sea Of Class – closing her down. So suggests Enable went for home too soon in a strongly run race… And yet Sea Of Class appeared to show more speed in the last couple of furlongs than anything else too. So too early to tell who the unlucky/lucky one was until seeing the sectionals.

    Well done Pants and all who backed Enable. :good:

    Brilliant race, had the lot. :yes:

    She would not have been reigned back all the way back there with a nice draw ham. No way. Maureen Haggas interview told you everything you need to know.

    Cheers Guys! Enable was too keen, possibly went for home too early and had an unideal prep but still won, incredible filly! Sea of Class has run a mighty race also, Doyle did the best he could from a poor draw.

    Two amazing filly’s showing why I love this sport.

    Nice to win a few quid as well! Get yer coat wife, we’re going out! :yahoo:

    Enable usually kicks for home earlyish in her races it’s nothing new.
    In fact that proved crucial this time and the post came in time.

    Forgot say great price Pants and enjoy your celebrations. :good: and like willing Enable to win with your heart my heart was routing for Sea Of Class to win rather than any small bet I had on her.
    Never felt like this since Mtoto got touched off by Tony Bin.but a least Sea Of Class was beaten by one hell of a filly.
    Well done to all her backers. :good: like Joni can’t wait for a rematch.

    Well done on the 5’s Pants
    SteveCaution too on the 5’s
    was a great race, I think Enable wasn’t at her best but just the one run beforehand on a season coming back from injury she was entitled to tire late on.

    Maybe mike, maybe she would have been a couple horses more forward, but shes a hold up horse and if she isnt held up, doesnt mean she would have shown the same speed, but you may be spot on, she will have her day, shes shown how good she is truely today.
