Lostintranslation bled in the King George.

So he probably did at Haydock and probably will again. I was a big fan but can't back him again at least until the other stable stars run to their best.

Might Bite, Native River, Altior, Cyrname and Lostintranslation - a select quality field - all seem to have lost their way after a gruelling contest; trainer or jockey to blame?

By:
Neither I would say. Might Bite and Native River probably bottomed each other in their classic duel but connections surely wouldn’t have wanted either to back out. Perhaps, generally speaking, the breed is not as tough as it used to be? Altior coming second and finishing best at the weights in a Grade 2 hardly indicates he’s lost his way and I’d still back him against Chacun Pour Soi in the QM.

By:
I'd blame the trainers for Altior and Cyrname eg too gungho for running (former), and indecision of tactic (latter).
I'd too give Altior another chance as long as the ground is not testing against Chacun Pour Soi; more hopeful if Ryanair. The others not for me until rejuvenation is evidently clear. |

By:
I would not rule Native River out of anything once the yard get back to form. Denman chase looks ideal again.

It’s a shame the performances of Might Bite have deteriorated so much. He didn’t really fulfil his potential after what was a scintillating demolition job in the Sun Alliance chase before his shenanigans at the end.
