    Hard luck Marky; at least you can rejoice in being a moral winner though.

    Haha, cheers.

    I’m glad that they got the race back, anyway.

    Did everyone see the response from Aiden O’Brien following the decision? Very good, the man is a true great.

    From what I have seen and read over this incident, I would say it has been 70/30 in support of Simple Verse. The majority of that is of a sensible view and not sentiment toward the filly and Ralph Beckett/Andrea Atzeni.

    It still has to go down as a surprise though that the decision was overturned today, she was odds against and that had to be for a good reason.

    Heard an interview earlier, and thought AOB was very magnanimous in defeat.

    Suppose it was harder to take for COD, but I thought he came across well in his interview, too.

    Been a member for a while, but haven’t really got anything to contribute myself, as a bona fide mug punter :D

    Have followed this thread with interest, as I had backed Simply Verse antepost.

    I have found the thread very educational, so thanks to all who have contributed, and kept things interesting over the last week.

    Unfortunately I had backed the filly with Bet Victor, who it seems, from Twitter, are the only Bookmakers not paying out on Antepost bets, lol.

    Congrats to the gents who backed their opinion with cash!
