Seriously, how do you have 15k posts iyo

Why you post on some other forum

Landing Yankees

Have watched the race 7 times. Then watched THE race twice, and few of Kauto races just to stop me thinking Sprinter is better.

...I still think he's better. Sprinter Sacre is just... We need to think of new words.

Love the RUK comments though. "Well Well, what kind of ridiculous unspeakable monster is this"

Up there with "Kauto Star, at Leisure"

I'd run him in the Grand Annual off 180 something and watch him sluice up

Change the conditions of the Victor Chandler (AGAIN) and let's see what he can do

yes handicaps to reveal the true extent of superiority! trouble is most of the rivals would be so far out of the handicap it wouldn't be representative unless you could get Cue Card, SE, FR etc to run off 165 to 170. Doubt they would show up though

well,i had a few drinks last night,i have no crash helmet and no body armour,so if you can find it in your hearts to be gentle with me,i would much appreciate it.

what can i say?

i had no winners at the course,and only a 14yr old at Aintree(well i have to back him)stopped a disastrous punting day.
but i came home with a big smile on my face having witnessed something i will never forget.
the race was as i expected in the way it went off,no excuses for any horse which we wanted,and i even managed a "come on ruby" as they jumped the first of the 7 in the back straight.After the railway fences,it was "oh well i got that wrong",this is now what i did not expect,but i was not surprised at the same time,if you see what i mean.
i simply thought Sanctuaire could give SS a real race round Sandown and maybe beat him.......,blimey, i was way out in my estimation of him,and i should apologise to Sprinter Sacre for thinking it!!
i was there when Sizing Europe won last year,and i felt mighty priveleged to have seen him,i felt the same yesterday.

I got some nice photos in the parade ring,the paddock,and a good one of Sanct jumping the ditch in front of the stands first time.i missed SS jumping the last which p!ssed me off,but, thanks to BG,i got a real good photo when he bought SS in front of us after the race.

i dont know how good Sprinter will be in relation to the past greats,but i do know hes special,and we should enjoy him for as long as it lasts-hopefully a good few years!!!

All those on here i debated with,i have humble pie for breakfast,and lunch and probably dinner as well!!
And im glad you were right about SS,but disappointed i was wrong about Sanctuaire.

Oh and CV.............thanks for tipping me Sam Winner!!

Being right, then having the grace to sit back, is a sure sign of the measure of a man.There is no need to keep saying "I told you so!" My earlier comments re SS were thankfully proved right. Alternatives to me did not seem to be possible, but nevertheless viable arguments all the same. In the end we were treated to an incredible display from probably the most exciting chaser we have seen in years. I am not in a minority however when putting forward my earlier comments regarding the outcome. I am however, as stated, looking forward to hearing the thoughts of Budd, irrespective of what others may think. He put up a reasoned argument, and because he was there when it happened I would like to hear what his thought are. He expected it to be a clash. I doubt any of us really thought it would be SUCH a demolition irrespective of our earlier responses. 

              Just to add, this is not meant for you MM!

yeh,cheers FF.
I was lucky enough to be there when Denman won his 2nd Hennessey,was some atmosphere with proper NH fans going nuts,yesterday was similar.

It's great to see a dominant horse, but I do find my self hankering back to the days of titanic battles between the likes of Viking Flagship, Deep Sensation, Martha's Son etc in the 2 mile division.

cheers Judo,

To be honest mate,i dont see me changing much as re betting,im a live or die by my impression of a horse type person,and take it on the chin win or lose.Plus im not a big hitter by any means,and really the sport is more of a hobby for me than a profit making thing,which i guess people might have noticed with my style of posts.

I may take others opinions a bit more seriously though!!

yes indeed that may be enough to help you

any chance of getting them photos up? I wouldn't know how to do it myself

You're lucky to have seen that performance bud

"Well Well, what kind of ridiculous unspeakable monster is this"

Love that line. Sprinter is from another planet and they need to think about next years King George.

Sorry about Sam winner bud horse drifted like a barge. Roi Du Mee at Navan was our forum charge, never told you though. you should pop over a load of us on there now. I'll pm you the link.

there is every prospect that Sprinter will run in the Melling Chase at Aintree (unless the yard have that earmarked for another) which would see him trying 2 mile 4 furlongs. If he won there that would open the prospect of stepping up later in his career - 2014 KG or even 2013 if they felt like it

will see what i can do with the photos judo,aint got a clue how to do it though!!

His win was very similar to Kauto's 2nd tingle creek, Would like to know how King rates Kumbeshwar to Voy Por.

horses with enormous levels of ability and superiority are often capable of much more than people give them credit for. There regular posts on the main forum saying Frankel was a 'pure miler' and that he should be campaigned only at that distance for fear of not staying. Well few would doubt his staying ability and I personally think he could win any race up to a mile and a half and that's because of his enormous natural ability. It make some time but I would imagine Sprinter Sacre will prove top class at any distance for exactly the same reason yet already there are the usual 'he's a two miler, don't try anything else' posts on the various SS threads. Sheesh, he is only 6yo and just had his first start out of novice company, no need to pigeon hole him now - he literally could be anything
