Just got back from supporting the meeting, against my better feelings..
Nothing about this race appeals to me, infact quite the opposite.
40 horses, 4'5 and goodish ground = bloodbath. Whilst I still love the game, you'll never take the risk out, but maximising it so blatently seems at best churlish. General public may love it, but that far from romanticizes it for me.
I lost a fair bit more than I could afford on Kauto during the GC but my immediate intrinsic reaction was to make sure Kauto was OK - random side theme, but retire the boy now
