Cracking performance from Hukum – five-year-old entire and looks better than ever to me.

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"Well that was a bit dissapointing, pyledriver didn’t pick up at all. Don’t think he’s run to his best at all there.
Hukum won very easily, was never really in doubt
manobo was covered in sweat and ran no race
Pyledriver OR 120, High Definition OR 119 just behind him – I think there’s just a chance they both ran to form and Hukum has improved to about 126.

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"I’d say that’s very unlikely Ian
I can’t have high definition as a 119 horse think he was flattered by his second last time thanks to an excellent losing ride at a track that favours front runners
I’d say he’s probably improved to 120-122 and the 2nd/3rd have run to about 115
I’d have to watch it again but Frankie may have been a bit too keen to hit the front although that said the wouldn’t have made any difference to the result as Hukum was very good today and up with him anyway but may have finished closer if a bit more patient.

Fair comment and a lot of people when rating races fall into the trap of assuming something in the frame must have run to its mark when rating the race when quite often the winner is the only one that has run to form.
Time, as always, will tell.

What a broodmare Aghareed is
Baaeed and Hukum produced from 3 foals
And the third reached a rating of 99 too
Just shows you don’t need a superstar on the track to produce group 1 performers
Winning time was only 0.7 seconds outside standard.
Ground drying out all the time, I think.

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"I’m told he put on 25mm before racing.
I can easily see them watering again after the last given the times.

Thinking back to the Sir Mark Prescott clip, Major Halliday will be turning in his grave!
Hukum has fractured a leg and is out for the season and will likely be retired. Terrible bad luck for Owen Burrows and his team. Hope the horse will be OK.
Most likely won’t race again and go to stud duties. They operated on him Saturday thank goodness it was ok to operate on

Ahhhhh! That’s terrible news.
Feel for his trainer.
tbh Now he’s fractured a leg I hope he is retired to stud.Value Is EverythingShame that he’s injured
Interesting analysis on the verdict
They’ve gone absolutely no pace and hukum just to fast for the rest
Firing 2 almost 11 second dead furlongs in furlong 10 and furlong 11
The rest far too slow to be coping with that speed
Hukum OR now 122.
