    Did anyone watch O’Briens Sioux Nation today?

    I feel I am in an alien time bubble or something. Having watched the race, admittedly on a crappy stream with low volume, I though he was up there at the head of affairs before kicking and looking like the winner, before falling into a hole and being swamped, finishing second.

    Reading the ATR report it says however:-

    SIOUX NATION (USA) (1)
    Towards rear, 8th halfway, ridden and good headway to 4th 1f out, soon 3rd, kept on, nearest finish

    Are ATR talking bollocks, or am I seeing bollocks?

    Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.

    ATR mistake Steve, it won’t be the last, they must of been doing the race comments down to post perhaps. :wacko:

    I thought Sioux Nation broke okay moved smoothly to contest the lead, kicked off the final bend, winner was travelling well in behind and went past Sioux Nation anytime he liked. Sioux Nation weakened but held on for 2nd.

    Thanks Nathan, I have just noticed that they repeated the 3rd horse’s write up for Sioux Nation in error. I thought Sioux Nation looked like the drop back to 5F was required. Had him at 11/8 for that today. Disappointed

    Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.
