Presenter after presenter on this subject has consistently suggested that the fact they went slow in The Ascot Gold Cup hampered Fame And Glory’s chances.
When approaching a topic like this I’d hope they are warned in advanced by their director before coming on air because it gives you enough time to research the facts.
2011 – Slow by 16.51s
2012 – Slow by 20.05s
That took me 5 minutes to debunk the theory branded about on a daily basis, please in future I’d like the reasons on Fame And Glory being caught behind a slow pace abolished.
