If City Of Troy does not follow his pacemaker then it is not in his opponents best interests to make it a fast pace. COT’s rivals might ignore the pacemaker and make it a slowly run race – hoping the pacemaker comes back to them.
Value Is EverythingThat’s the connections reason LD.
Were you there when they did the blood test?Value Is EverythingThe weakness in betfair odds told everyone White Birch would not run, even before the “blood test” was done.
Value Is EverythingI don’t see the pacemaker going off fast enough to where the others could elect to just let him go and being that COT can front run, Ryan could just as easily sit in behind whatever pace Hans goes off at and lead the rest and then kick on 2F out.
Usually keeping it simple is the best way to go as overthink things can get you in trouble…Ryan is on the best horse and he is the best stayer in the race so either lead or sit 2nd behind your lead horse.
Yikes – hanging badly right, could be a ground thing?
Should be interest to hear what spin Aidan comes up with here
That was hard work he should have beaten that bunch by a distance.

He never looked like losing but he was not particularly impressive. Maybe the ground was too soft but he has made hard work of beating Group 3 or Listed horses.
Ground I’d say. Didn’t look like losing but it wasn’t very good either.
Whats the sceptism about White Birchs bloods about? I don’t get why they’d feel the need to lie.
Getting 10lb from the second as well but the last furlong he was going to hold on.

He dug it out but than confirms he’s a good derby winner but isn’t a superstar , getting that weight he should have won more comfortably
Really unimpressive.
Think he’s lost a yard of pace this season and really needs the 1m4f.
You can blame the ground today but then again, Ghostwriter would’ve been an awful lot better on quicker ground also.
10 furlong Group 1 win in the bag. Job done as far as Coolmore is concerned.
Just hope O’Brien doesn’t start thanking everyone and the stable cat..
Ryan taking the blame this time came up the wrong part of the track.
