Fame and glory was impressive last time out and cutlass bay looks the main danger.

Fame and Glory

Aye. I wonder if Aidan will have a word

Surely he couldn't ruin a horse  in less than 2 weeks

Crap turnout yet again.

Does anyone have figures on the record of Goldawful's new recruits fto? Last 2-3 seasons?

They have 2 high profile runners today, and as alluded to here Cutlass Bay on Sunday.

Racecaller's Trends
The Tattersalls Gold Cup takes place on the undercard of the Curragh’s 1000 Guineas day on Sunday 23rd May. It’s a group 1 race run over 1M 2½F and has been won by some top class horses in the past decade, including Montjeu, Fantastic Light and Hurricane Run. It’s disappointing to see that only 7 horses have been entered at the 5-day stage this year.

Below we take a look at the trends for the past 10 years:

Age

	Win		Place	Runners
4yo	8		7	40
5yo	2		4	18
6yo	o		1	4

8 of 10 winners were aged 4yo, though they have represented approximately 65.4% of the total runners.
The two 5yo winners were the only two winner trained in Great Britain.

Gender
The nine mares to run in this race have finished 818228623 (1-2-9)

Recent/Past Form
10 of 10 winners won over 1M 2F+
10 of 10 winners had won a group 1 or 2
7 of 10 winners had won a group 1 (all 3 exceptions had been placed in a group 1)
10 of 10 winners had run no more than twice that season
6 of 10 winners had won at the Curragh (2 exceptions were having first course start & other two had finished in the first 3 in a group 1 here)
10 of 10 winners were officially rated 110 or higher

Other Races
Previous season's Irish Derby winner (Fame And Glory): 1112 (3-1-4)
Prix Ganay winner (Cutlass Bay): 2221 (1-3-4)
Prev season's Derrinstown Stud winner (Fame And Glory): 21 (1-1-2)
Previous season's Prix Greffulhe winner (Cutlass Bay): 1 (1-0-1)
Mooresbridge Stakes winner (Fame And Glory): 5613 (1-0-4)
5 of 10 winners ran in the previous season's Irish Derby, finishing 16112 (one other finished 7th in the Irish Oaks)
4 of 10 winners ran in the previous season’s Arc, finishing 1001
3 of 10 winners ran in the previous season's French Derby, finishing 152

2 of 10 winners ran in the Prix Ganay, finishing 91
2 of 10 winners ran in the Newmarket Champion Stakes, finishing 88
2 of 10 winners ran in the Eclipse, finishing 52

Trainers
Aidan O’Brien (3-2-11) has won 3 of the last 7 runnings of this race.
Dermot Weld (2-1-7) trained the winner in 2005 and saddled the first two home last year.
Saeed Bin Suroor (1-2-7), Michael Stoute (1-1-3) and Kevin Prendergast (1-0-4) have all saddled the winner once in the past decade.
British-trained runners (2-6-23) have won only 2 of the last 10 from approximately 37.1% of the total runners.
French-trained runners (2-1-3) have gained 2 wins and a second from 3 runners. Cutlass Bay had been trained in France by Andre Fabre until she moved to Saeed Bin Suroor earlier this month.

Price
10 of the last 10 winners were priced 7/1 or shorter
Nine runners has been the biggest field for this race since 2000 so it’s no surprise that all winners have gone off at single-figure prices.
Favourites (4-4-10) have won 4 of the last 10 however 4 of the 7 odds-on favourites to run in this have been turned over in the past decade. Favourites show a level stakes loss of 3.84 over past 10 years.

Summary:
Based on the trends from the past 10 years you are looking for a horse:
·         Aged 4
·         Won over 1M 2F or further
·         Won a group 1 or 2 (finished in first 3 in a group 1)
·         Course winner
·         Officially rated 110+
·         Ran in the Irish or French Derbys last season
·         Trained by A O’Brie

I agree TH, could've been a lot worse imo.
Looking fwd to seeing Chinese White step up too, big ask though.

Is Cutlass Bay not a mare

good line up my ring.

Which horses are missing that should be running, sintonian?

OK. I`m confusing this one with Cavalryman but that still doesn`t explain why it carried the same as the colts in the Ganay!!!!!??????

It's a mistake in the RP database, Cutlass Bay is a colt.

Fillies don't become mares until 5 anyway so it's definitely wrong :)

Sprting Life. RESPECT.

Cutlass Bay (UAE)
Age: 4 (foaled 31st Mar 2006)         Trainer: Saeed Suroor
Sex: Bay Colt         Owner: Godolphin
Breeding: Halling - Dunnes River (Danzig)

Very poor by the RP, esp as all the connection's comments refer to he and him.

Ta btw [;)]

frankie's in france on hibaayeb.
