    I have never known the result of a Shergar cup to be this thrilling going into the last race. Team Women and Team ROW will win the cup with a good performance here.
    Kirby must win the race. This is the biggest ride of his career. A nations fate lies upon his shoulders.

    The atmosphere is tense as we move into sudden death and find out who the winner of The Shergar Cup 2021 is.

    It’s Kirbys chance to shine

    The Irish team in a distant last place.

    It must be the racing gods taking revenge on them for taking us to the cleaners at Cheltenham. ;-)

    Not sure what’s going on Andrea Adzeni Rode the 2nd in the last race and he is riding for ROW but the colours on results show him as riding for women.

    This is outrageous

    A man cannot ride for the women’s team? What is going on here?

    This is not the Tokyo olympics.

    Andrea is a lasses name in fairness.

    It’s been fixed for the women to win. The essential team GB non runner with no replacement and the Andrea incident means this was not a fair outcome.

    Shame has been bestowed upon the Shergar Cup this year. A sour taste has been left in ones mouth.

    “Shame has been bestowed upon the Shergar Cup this year. A sour taste has been left in ones mouth.”

    But, on the upside, never in the event’s history have I taken such interest in the “Team” aspect of it.

    All thanks to you, Captain.

    Same time, same place, next year?

    This thread has made the Shergar Cup decent crack to be fair.

    Yes, I thought this was going to be a bit of a boring Saturday but it was great entertainment. Nice one Robbo.

    This has been the second best thread of the year, after the authoritarian dictators.

    And my nap in the tipping competition – Cold Stare, 3pm Haydock – won me a few quid as well. :yahoo:

    Robbo is great value- his best bets generally end up being the lay of the day. Not sure how he survives financially, but God love him.

    :good:

    Excellent read Robbo. Shergar Cup though – still don’t get it. Still looks like the crowd at Ascot had a good time.

    Far from losing his marbles, the good Captain provided me (and it sounds like others) with excellent entertainment on a Saturday often described as the worst racing Saturday of the year.

    He also offered some strong opinions pre-race and I always respect that, win or lose.

    That’s the most interested I have ever been in a Shergar Cup – including when I was actually there in 2011! – so the good Captain is to be congratulated.

    Blimey Mr Davies … you’re being seduced by the dark side. You’ll never make a Jedi Knight.
