Not another anti-Darley/Maktoum/Godolphin post surely, Andy? Perhaps you can tell us how your friend Aidan and Team Ballydoyle would do it so much better….
Today at Tipperary Ballydoyle had another odds/on 2yo beaten (into 3rd place).Many times this year this has happened. I do not recall so many odds/on Ballydoyle 2yo losers.Is there a reason for these losers?
Aidan said that JanVermeer has been put away until next year.To recover from the *** I suppose. About time that some action is being taken.Many Ballydoyle horses seem to be struggling this year.
Vincent? I am interested in the struggling tyos at Ballydoyle.Unusual year all around for Ballydoyle which started with so much promise(First,second, fourth in Dewhurst; first in RacingPost).
They had a well backed winner in the first race, a 2yo maiden. Jackaroo was always going to be vulnerable in my opinion, 7th in the Chesham is far from great 2yo form.
I am not surprised at tyos being beaten at odds on. I am surprised at so many Ballydoyle ones biting the dust in Ireland without the Richard Hannon opposition with which to contend.
Season finishes up at the Breeders Cup, where I think Ballydoyle/Coomore are looking for significant success this year. I think they have learned they can’t have their best horses at group 1 fitness from May through to November.
