Grand National!
There’s nothing around that would be able to take him on in the Grand National, two tailed off efforts and he gets in of 158 which is enough to win.
Will never happen Nathan, impossible.
I like your optimism though.
You backed us to win yet? can’t wait to collect in May.
Already planning what to spend my winnings on.
Getting a dog & a new set of teeth so far.
Also, best clean sheet record come January is going to be Arsenal.
Massively improved defensively.
Another clean sheet today.
WATCH THIS SPACE
I agree,
The presenters these days are more ineffective than they have ever been as I believe too much racing has impacted their ability to hold long term form memory causing over simplistic race reviews on a daily basis.
When I pay money to watch live Horse Racing I expect a detail, passionate, knowledgeable understanding of all the runners but I can’t help I’m being fed cliche after cliche along with statements that seem to be in trend without presenters actually reasoning behind what they mean and drawing their own opinions on the racing.
I don’t blame them as they have the natural ability to be the best presenters in the world but the sport isn’t doing themselves a favour with the ludicrousness of heavy racing fixtures diluting our racing experience as armchair fans.
More needs to be done.
Those American female bloodlines are always a risk, plenty have trouble so it doesn’t come as a surprise – would have been America at the end of the year and stud/sold anyway.
Sad loss nevertheless.
What a dreadful prospect, would probably be seen running in a Bumper.
You just wouldn’t breed those horses together unless you wanted a 3 1/2f horse or a potential Champion Hurdler.

Blues Brother has a good work ethic but sadly he has no idea what’s going on in terms of times.
Commendable effort even if it’s not worthy of chip paper.
What odds on Blues Brother is Dave Edwards gardener? over heard a few conversations and thinks he’s the new Mordin lol
Pacemakers make honest winners.
Cue The Great Voltigeur, nice to have that race in black and white in the breeding book but who wants to look at history to predict the future when you have false results?
Honest winners only come when tested to their physical maximum, slow races are an art but they are a thieving art which denies the good horses from taking their just deserts.
I’ve just wrote an email complaining about the typing noises during the show.
When trying to listen to what the guest was trying to say on today’s show all I heard was someone typing on a keyboard which was highly distracting.
Not impressed.
his pedigree will allow him to stay as far as he likes.
Sorry but I can’t agree with this.
A pedigree is just a blueprint for the specimen created but it’s up to the physical & mental make up which aren’t a given through breeding that allow a horse to become an individual.
His pedigree would certainly allow him to stay twelve furlongs, but his stride would allow him to win, not only a July Cup and an Arc (such is the opinion of Richard Hughes) but a Nunthorpe and even an Ascot Gold Cup.
That stride is beyond superlatives – perfect does not actually do it justice.
Where did he inherit his stride from then? has nothing to do with pedigree.

Couldn’t enjoy Frankel’s win today after seeing Sir Henry in that condition, very sad.
Every horse in training has some evidence of stamina and it’s easy to make a case for 99% of 2yos staying further so I don’t see your case for him being able to get a mile?
If you’ve seen his action and conformation you’d be worried that he’ll hit a brick wall at 7f let alone strong run to a finish over 8f.
Keep dreaming.

Re: Peruvian Chief,
You gave up easily, probably the same traits your horses have too!
