wd winners
Kopek pecked at the last i think when coming to win.
March 10, 2026 at 14:06 #1757980Well done winners , Kopek just not savvy enough , Jesus Nico got lucky at the 5th last , God knows what he was playing at
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
March 10, 2026 at 14:06 #1757981Best jumper in the race won it. Nico somehow back his old self on Lulamba. Let him make too many mistakes.
March 10, 2026 at 14:08 #1757982He panics doesn’t he , luckily the horse said feck that , winner is very tough

March 10, 2026 at 14:08 #1757983Winner well deserved
Kopecks inexperience over fences told in the end at the first couple and at the last
Still fancy him for next yearGaelic Warrior Gold Cup Winner 2026
March 10, 2026 at 14:09 #1757984Romeo’s gone to the wrong race probably. I think he’d have won that with his jumping. Hes no slower at 2m than Lulamba
March 10, 2026 at 14:10 #1757985She was foot perfect and a model of good behaviour. Danny Mullins gets the pace right as always
March 10, 2026 at 14:10 #1757986Possibly , he still looks strong for this week

March 10, 2026 at 14:11 #1757987“Best jumper in the race won it.”
Agree. Not sure the best horse did, though.
March 10, 2026 at 14:12 #1757988You’ll prob still get a deft price Hughsie , however I reckon he’ll always be a bit iffy jumping wise , he always misses 1 or 2 esp at the start
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
March 10, 2026 at 14:12 #1757989Looks strong if he stays. Mullins has about 10 in there. Probably be no hiding place.
March 10, 2026 at 14:13 #1757990Sadly it looks as though we lost Hansard between fences
March 10, 2026 at 14:13 #1757991For kopek see majborough tomorrow, cant make any errors at that speed.
I was on kopek and completely disagree with AP, he would have won if he’d gog the last right.
March 10, 2026 at 14:13 #1757992Best horse won , you have to jump to win , certainly the best ride
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
March 10, 2026 at 14:13 #1757993This race continues to be a graveyard for the favourites.
Lulamba just can’t jump at 2m championship pace.
Kopek is a brilliant horse but Willie probably should’ve given him a final prep run in February.
If Kargese can bounce back like that after being absolutely legless at the DRF then so can Lossiemouth.
March 10, 2026 at 14:14 #1757994Kopek got all the talent but early on his jumping is rather alarming and whilst he warmed up as the race progressed that peck at the last lost him all momentum and the ground he lost getting away from the last was pretty much how far he was beaten by but at the end of the day jumping is the name of the game and the most professional horse won.
This was run at an even slower pace with many 15s furlongs being clocked but they were really motoring late on as the overall time was only 0.35s slow. You have to say that Danny rode a blinder as I was fully expecting him to go off a lot faster on her but he just sat in front and then kicked off the turn.
March 10, 2026 at 14:15 #1757995CAS, the horse with the fewest mistakes won the race. Surely not the best.
