its quite obvious that patakai is going towin the gold cup or at least be in 1st 3 . no horse in that race will be placed in the gold cup . big bucks could win a gold cup double though imo . shame he needs ruby to ride

You would think Ask would be a class apart and could hose up if taking part. Ran against the best in Arcs and King George,s and won last years Yorkshire Cup and won 2 Miles in France so if he got the extra half mile i can,t see beyond him.

Ask won last years Coranation Cup at Epsom on Good, a close 3rd in last years King George, and won 2 Miles in france on Soft so he appears to go on any ground. Very confident if he is anywhere near last years form.

You might think Patkai has the best form The Official Handicapper,RPR,Timeform and me think there are at least 6 other horses entered with better form.

dananders, fb has nothing better to do with his time than argue, the fact that paktai was unlucky last year in the race behind 5 time winner yeats, 15 lengths clear of the rest, wouldnt even have occured to him, ok TF rate Ask 2lb better on Asks best form, well done with your sliderule, but racing is a little more complex than that

i know flying bolt seems to like trying to have an argument with me. im not for 1 minute saying ask wont win but at the prices i wouldnt back him because he hasnt proved he stays . ide be pretty confident myself that yankee doodle of obriens will definitely improve alot for the step up in trip and at a big price take a little risk on him improving although hell need to

fb, there was a slight exaggeration, not even yeats in his pomp would have been those odds at this stage, you must be the worlds biggest jobsworth not see a little artistic license

fb it should be obvious, even to the most clueless jobsworth, that paktai, as a progressive 5yo would have been aimed at a race he was unlucky in last year and would have had a a very good chance of winning, fck he must be in everyones notebook, so 4/7 is a send up of how obvious the tip is...get it now ?

Oh you were joking were you ?.................and there was me thinking you were a clueless twerp who would backtrack on his statement when challenged.

he was unlucky last year in the sense that he ran into yeats on a going day. hed have won 15 lenghts without him . take yeats out of the race last year if he waa fit hed now be trading even money ante post favourite

take yeats out of the race last year he won by at least ten . and every 1 would have been raving saying how brilliant he is . and he would undoubtebly be favourite ante post for this race. im not saying every horse that ran behind sts was unlucky but the 2nd horses against sts didnt beat every other horse in the field by 15 lenght

Last years Gold Cup was a weak renewal. Yeats was on the downgrade. Patkai is a good horse and would have a chance if fit. He would no way be a "certainty" or an odds on shot.

Eastern Anthem isn't top class and Yeats wasn't on the downgrade last year.
If he hadn't been in the race who's to say what the line up would have been.

to be fair he was on the downgrade wasnt he yeats . if he wasnt they wouldnt have retired him. and eastern anthem is a group 1 winner regardless. i dont think hes top class but he has won a group 1

dananders, we'll see, you attack everyone's selection unless it's the same as yours and then wonder why everyone is giving you grief.
eg; just look at the title of this thread, aren't you embarassed ?
P.s; you can back patkai's full brother for this or any other top staying race this year.

am i boll ox . y would i back that . probably be seen to best effect over alot further than hes been running but his form doesnt merit him being 20/1 . id want 50s minimum. might be too inexperienced for a race like that aswell
