    Ylak ylak very poor there

    Didn’t have a bet myself but did make a late switch and put ezeliya in my 10 to follow so very happy with thar

    Bit of tarnawa about the winner the way she travels so strongly and has a good turn of foot

    Dance sequence ran very nicely but looked like she got badly unbalanced on the camber

    Well done anyone that was on. Ylang Ylang being pushed from a long way out.

    Dance Sequence needs a flat track.

    Head on Dance Sequence looked like she’d been on the sherry :wacko:

    Either she didn’t handle the camber or got a bit tired, maybe both

    Was even worse than I thought watching the head on triptych

    Dance sequence will be a good bit better on a flat track you’d think

    Maybe not as good as Ezeliya but you’d think there’s a group 1 win in her this season.

    The third also hung up the camber all the way down the straight so can mark her up too

    Told you about the Menusier horse. Only 80s EW, she touched 100s as well

    Ooh yes that was pretty wobbly FF and Mystic Ginge predicted it earlier :wacko: lol

    Charlie Appleby just said she may get a bit intimidated by horses and may be dropped back to 1m2f next time. :good:

    Anyway really happy with that run. :good:

    Well done all winners. I backed the winner, but not exactly feeling smug as it drifted out after I backed it. Still a winners better than a loser.

    What a difference a few days makes, two duds for Weld at the Curragh, and then lands an Oaks.

    Winner won nicely enough, but I doubt it will eventually be thought of as anything other than a very ordinary renewal.

    Bookmakers must have been very happy with the performance of the well backed favourite who never looked likely to win.

    Mathematically i should have backed her at the price ginge your not wrong, but i had enough doubt about the howler for some reason, was happy to kick myself after (for once my gut won over the maths) i still feel she’s the best in a very, very poor oaks though, the winners just less complicated and handled the track better

    Ylang ylang and ezeliya are the only two after the race id go near again, but wouldnt be touching them in an arc etc, as i said prior, id be forgetting every other runner in this, there barely group 3 level, barely

    Winner be lucky to have ran 112 there
