3.15 Longchamp - So You Think (Official backers thread)

If he gets placed he would have done well.

From that draw it will nead a 2 min head start [;)]

wont win. lay for me. [;)]

Wins by 6L.

The class act in the race.

Really highlights how foolish even the most intelligent of punters are with this fellow available at bigger than 5/1.

So You Think is the obvious winner, and something will have to go wrong for him not to win.

i shall be laying it for every available bit of cash i have.
thank you for your custom

Viva



That is the silliest thing I have EVER had to read

Zippie, I've read many stupid posts from yourself on this forum over the last few months.

You are the type of idiot who is the epitomy of this forum......I'd have no interest discussing anything racing related with you.

Well said Viva

You started with the stupid ignorant moronic stuff you fool.

I will be back to ridicule you and you "wins by 6lgth " utter tosh you drunken pleb

HTH dopey

and i shall be back to ridicule you , or to ask you for a loan
but i fear you shall have done your coconuts.

Zippie, I take it you will be laying the almighty So You Think in both the win and place markets? If that is the case, then I will thank you in advance for your money; and am glad to inform you that I will be investing a percentage of the money I have won on a fillet steak supper.

Okeekokeee

You like the APOB "monster" from down under drawn in the car park I wish you luck, you WILL most deffinately need it based on hte draw bias over the years here.

He beat an average Workforce and a bunch of trees in Ireland as well as beaing beaten by a slow boat at Ascot where there were NO draw problems and he had the run of the race before dogging it in the finish

YAK

there's a few forumites been degrading our aussie superstar since day fkin 1

if he wins today, I will be sending them private messages 1 by 1

I'm a backer

I think he's going to run a massive race.I get the impression that he is much better than he has shown in his previous races this season.Whilst the draw is an obvious problem and I can understand some of the doubters reasoning,I think he's the most talented horse in the line up.Massive pressure on the trainer but I think we are going to see a special performance today.

I think the jockey may be a problem. Not much winning experience of Longchamp.

educee thankfully sarafina will save you the bother

he hasn't shown his best in a big race against good horses, he's beaten good horses here and there but if he wants to silence the critics he needs to beat them all here today

yes there are reasons why he can't win, there will be excuses if he gets beat but for the sake of australia (and i dont mean to make it a patriotic thing) he must win this, otherwise the connections would of been better off keeping him back home and having him win the cox plate year in and year out and if he gets beaten by another horse in a canter, how bad does that make the australia staying races look

Spot on there in you're assesment of the village idiot,expect an essay in his reponse to you

eachway steal. the strongest horse in the race for me and needs to be in a tradionally rough race

if it comes down to a tooth and nail struggle SYT will win

i've seen this animal do things you wouldn't think imaginable when he raced in aus

like what?

when he won his first cox plate he was a 2 year old and led the entire journey, he didn't beat mug horses either

when he run the melbourne cup and ran 3rd he was stepping up from 1m 2f to 2 miles and was only beaten in the last furlong

I thought the only time he got beat in europe he was outstanding, horrendous ride and deserved to get beaten further

6.8 win and 2.74 place is massive value.

2pt win and 8pt place for me. GL SYT backers

HIRUNO D´AMOUR for me

easy money overhyped coolmore nonsense

a lot of the fancied horses not close enough to the pace there.

geez that camera angle is deceptive, didn't look like she bolted up like that on the racing camera angle

agree about the hype - McGrath just described SYT run as 'enormous' - winner p1ssed in.

i agree reaseH

Not as good as they say but bad draw and worse ride.

Anyway Aidan you can now take on Frankel

So You Think ran a good race in my opinion, horrendous jockey error in my opinion. What Seamie and Lemerre and others where doing so far out the back i've no idea

nice lay on syt 4 me. draw always do these horses. [;)]

win and place lays landed   

lovely

a great prep for the breeders cup and hopefully the americans will give him a good reception

that far out the back watching each other - it's the Arc, you don't get many bad horses can't give a filly like that 12-15 lengths and 11 lbs.

mystifying ride not like it's ever been a hold-up horse

dont worry syt backers,itsw best runs are 14 days apart - today was always a prep run for ascot.

i've never seen him get that far back, never.

It seems I was right kemoh

From THAT draw = no chance as the fav also

All this wins by 6 lenghts bolllox was stupid in the extreme and shows exactly what you know...NOTHINg as with Goldikova WILL win, not "might" or "should" as any normal person would say

FISH

As for on the stiff, its nice of him to spit wazza's tool out and come and say hi

WATC he is

more evidence that So You Think is a good horse in the northern hemisphere and nothing more.

don't know if he was better in Aus and has regressed or whatever. All runs up here, winning and losing have added up to nothing more than a decent horse. For all he was held out the back today he didn't make up any more ground (give or take a neck) than sarafina for example.

Aus performances and Coolmore hype against repeated form book evidence up here, that's not a difficult one for me.

I can just about accept (although don't agree with) those who claim Frankel to be the greatest as there is at least a case to be argued for that, unfortunately case-closed for So You Think - unless there's some dramatic improvement.

don't turn this into a Frankel vs SYT war, would Frankel win from that far back in that field?

thank you  for your donations  all you so you stink backers merry christmas.

don't turn this into a Frankel vs SYT war, would Frankel win from that far back in that field?

what a bizarre comment - you condemn the SYT-Frankel comparison and then extend it in the most illogical fashion.

Frankel (for the most part) has never run over further than a mile and is often front running so why would he be that far back in that field?

delete (for the most part)

i dont know if Frankel or any horse would have won from there. Not meant to be a comparison between the horses more a comparison between the debates. I don't think Frankel is the best I've seen but accept there are a few points to be debated there. As far as So You Think goes, on northern hemisphere form (which might not be his best form), there is no longer a debate. He is a good horse, some would say very good, but that's it.

i think the winner would have won from there.

fair point Heath, i'd also like to add SYT has never gotten that far back in a race

I got no doubt they didn't think he could run the trip, he wasn't midfield or worst then midfield, he dead set in the last pair of horses, sometimes I just don't understand why they'd do it but I guess they get paid the big money to come up with that logic and not me so fair play to them
