Well done that poster who got 16/1 ew on Sizing John. I’m on at 6/1 (W/O Douvan). No doubt his Midnight Legend pedigree will serve him well on the drying ground.

March 16, 2016 at 08:51 #1237916Very surprised no one in here has mentioned it yet…..
IM CONVINCED VANITEAX WOULD HAVE BEATEN DOUVAN IF HE STAYED UP.
Yes I’m sure, you’ll all day jumping is the game and all that
Or you’ll say DOUVAN was travelling much better at the time but look would happen with Vautour and Cue Card in King George.
I would ask you all to re watch the race.
When Vaniteax fell he was staying on very strongly for pressure and actually came alongside Douvan.
He then fell but he had much more momentum then Douvan
Douvan was travelling well so I kept a keen eye on what he did after Vaniteax fell and actually think he didn’t find much at all when Ruby asked him a question.
sizing John was actually hampered slightly and lost a bit of momentum and Douvan wasn’t even pulling away from him after the last.
Seriously didn’t think Douvan found much at all looked one paced and for me he is not a MONSTER. Yes a very good horse but he is beatable and VANITEAX WOULD HAVE WON AND AT THE VERY LEAST WOULD OF BEEN EXTREMLY CLOSEMarch 16, 2016 at 18:25 #1238103Don’t think Vaniteux would have even been placed
