Judicial took out Taylors Sky, when he made the break from 4 at the first bend I thought he was going to win from there, absolutely gutted

Absolutely gutted Sky has nt won that, first night he brought the trappin boots, thought he was 1.01 at d bend |

Judicial took out Sky on his inside tonight, and took out JFK on his outside last week. Says it all really.

By:
Me too BJG, I thought he was home and hosed but got the smash that turned him sideways, absolutely sickening. Well done Blonde Snapper and the connections obviously.

if they say one more thing about judicial ruling I'm gunna put my fcuking foot through that television
|

By:
Taylor's had nowhere to go imo, Judicial had him hemmed right in on the rails. That's racing I suppose.
|

By:
the initial squeeze was normal racing but the secondary impediment was the killer....i was not sure if judicials back leg went into skys leg space creating the tangle or if bert spiked his back legs but either way he came off worse and did nothing wrong.....shame but congratulations to the winner and connections

winja did you win the comp ?

It was bert that cought sky hind leg making him smash into ruling
It's was like a old school trip up from behind I say million to one shot ! |

I thought Sky headed the charge to the first bend but the splits show him identical with Judicial at 4.76, with 4.77 Snapper. Must say, didnt look like that to me. I thought Snapper was last to show, therefore still dont know how he won. To me, looked like Sky didnt like Judicial flying round on his outside and checked wide into him, putting them both out of the race. Snapper picked his way round and gamely fended off Ironman.
Personally, really wanted Sky but Snapper my second best result for a small profit on this year's Derby overall  |

By:
Sky's trapping hasn't been the problem, it's his early. Just not flying into that first bend. Was very unlucky last night as would have surely won if he had turned.
Not a great year's Derby punting for me. For example, I backed Snapper every round apart from the semis and the final! Everyting I touched turned to sh1t! Well done to the winner and connections and John Terry. |

To me it looked almost level to the 1st bend but snapper went around the outside and clipped JR, so unlucky for the two dogs that met trouble but it happened because Blonde Snapper bullied his way to the front. A deserving winner on the night

anyone else think sky turned his head at the first

when I first seen race I thought he had ,but actually looks like bert has flown up and caught skys legs turning him sideways into JR ,many saying JR has taken sky out JR has done nothing wrong imo . |

By:
watched it a few times think the 2 is to far back and skys head turns but not his body, thats only my view though
|
|
By:
Thats the way it looked to me Mesi but no replay. My better half said there was a dog on Skys inside but i didnt see it, just thought it checked wide into Judicial at the time, when he usually rails the first couple of bends. Only watched on inter-track screen though, i didnt have the benefit of Sky TV

I've had a look a couple of times at the replay and it appears to me that Trap 5, "Judicial Ruling", bumped Taylors onto the rails, Taylors hit the rails with his backside, bounced out and hit Judicial with it. As a result of hitting the fence, Taylors came off the fence with his boby in a "half-moon" fashion thus, giving the impression he was having "a look" when in fact, he wasn't. I've watched Taylors many times and he has never given me the impression of being a fighter. In fact, I'm of the opinion that the Derby he won was the best I've seen at Wimbledon.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Y75aFlG1BI freeze vidio at one second intervals 1.07/9 seconds for the perfect behind view it looks like blond snapper causes all the trouble making for the rails, how he stayed on his feet is amazing |
