If he was the best ever, they should have given him a dirt season asa 4 year old to prove it.
Timeform have her highest rated horse in the world after that performance, higher than city of Troy though I guess lower when female allowance taken into account. https://www.theaustralian.com.au/sport/horse-racing/via-sistina-tops-world-rankings-with-2024-cox-plate-romp/news-story/b370a3db71403cee795f38e1b529c93a#
He will also be the most g1 winning horse for Aidan OBrien, acc to Nick Luck podcast.
A lot of the press around it has been embarrassing too, he’s so eloquent and completely right – racing post, Nick luck podcast – for fear of him not talking to them. Sporting life podcast more honest.
I’d give it back. The implication in the racing post is perhaps a bit of social engineering/trickery employed by asking for wrong amount..
Apparently he didn’t stop riding now. it’s the cameras fault it looks that way and it’s the cameras fault it’s a dead heat.
Speaking to the Racing Post, Shepherd said: “The photo-finish verdict looks questionable to me and a lot of people seem to agree, but I think any appeal has to go through the owners and David [Simcock]. If that is the case, I’ll need to discuss it with them.
He added: “Regardless of that, I feel I gave the horse absolutely every chance to win the race outright and I don’t think there was anything in my riding that detracted from that. I don’t understand how they can say I should have won outright.
Well they at least all have second jobs as politicians, or just comedians.
I was at the Newmarket horse racing museum this year, 4 racehorses there but none I’d heard of or I doubt anyone would have who didn’t follow low grade racing.
Racing post stable tour had ferny but no nice guy.

He’s making very slow progress but is making progress. If he comes back it’ll be towards the end of the season and we’re not going to rush a horse of his ability. We’ll let him take all the time he needs. It’s not ideal when you miss two seasons, but he has such ability we’re going to give him every chanceSomeone thinks he’s back but I’ve no idea how concrete it is –
‘He can go all the way’ – Five Willie Mullins horses to follow this season ⭐
I read it in the sun on Saturday but can’t find online, but yes they broke up and he has a new agent.
She’s said as much a few times on air. (Tues York latest) No detective skills required.
Interesting we are losing diversity from the beginnings.
Yes, she was on the Nick Luck podcast earlier this week talking about it and Nick also talked to a guy who is testing out screening horses beforehand so you know their normal gait and the computerised system could then pick up changes before a race on screening.
