have the french reversed a classic etc in favour of uk horse

rainbow quest ot the arc . its a funny thing thats was owned by abdullah so was known fact the last recipient of a stewards chance of result ,and guess who owned todays winner ,thats right abdullah :)

a few years ago ,one of obriens was chucked out,cant touch each other over there.

All above board and correct, I'd guess.

nuryev chucked out over here,2000 gns about 80/81

yeah and known fact got it , now that was a disgracefull decision , abdullah's horse got it his horse also got the arc and today his horse was given the gns :) lucky or what .

Not a classic - but top Group race last year - they threw out Gosden's in the Vermeille ...

Dar Re Mi 11/4 4 9-3 J H M Gosden
Jimmy Fortune

Prominent, 5th straight, headway over 1 1/2f out, soon switched right, ran on well to lead last strides, finished 1st, disqualified and placed 5th

They are ruthless, them frogs.

what on earth has that got to do with anything.....have the french reversed a classic etc........right decision imo.

Crediter is correct, imo.

In Rainbow Quest´s Arc - France´s biggest race of the year- the French stewards threw out the fav and darling of French racing fans, Sagace, owned by the popular Paris art dealer and long time patron of French racing, Daniel Wildenstein, and ridden by French riding legend Yves St Martin.

Ask yourself if that could ever have heppened here?

Today´s decision was correct. End of.

wasnt tip the odds it had enough time to get past an could not pasquier never stopped riding an the interference was minimal.

Santa, Ask yourself this question.
If Special Duty had been stands side of Cecils filly what would have happened?
Special Duty wins by a length and everyone says the other one threw her chance away by drifting across the track.

yes but thats because any horse on the rail had an advantage the best strip an the rail. nowt to do with what happened.

just like a greyhound sticking to the rails and going the shortest route .

Remember Vacarme and Lester getting chucked - think it was this Country any know which race (that was a Wildesntein owned beast - think he said he would never race one in England again , might be corrected there !)

If you agree that Special Duty would have won without the interference then the stewards made the right decision.

B'town - well said Sir !

to be honest btown i dont because ithe never stopped riding once an could not get passed. if hed had to stop riding or took a hefty enough bump ok but i dont think there was enough to say it affected the result .. all in all theres going to be 2 camps on this one an always will be . id say it should of kept it .

Vacarme was at Goodwood circa '83. Henry Cecil horses did not start at 66/1 in those days.

Good one United :)
