bbc footage cut off after the winner crossed line on replay, didnt show the places,which were close so they usually would. i think medermit was definitely 3rd.

Just posted the same elsewhere - but my view may be skewed though!

from the overhead shot you can see he makes a momentum stopping mistake at the second last, cost him at least a place

who knows what would have happened with a fast, clean jump?

was running on stronger than anything

prepare him for the Gold Cup

Anyone seen the photo print?
Report wingy123 April 12, 2012 3:37 PM BST

BBC and Stewards in cahoots??? Audacious!!!!  That Devon farmer must be well connected!

Just looked at it in slow motion a few times. Burton Port gets in the way, making it impossible to judge. My first impression was that Medermit got up for third, but after looking closely at it, it's really difficult to tell for sure.
Report Duvauchelle April 12, 2012 4:30 PM BST
they were fairly sharp with the result for something that close, was there even a photo?
Report wingy123 April 12, 2012 4:36 PM BST
doubt it, thats why im annoyed that it seems like they went with the horse that all the talk was about and ims surprised trainer of medermit has not queried it, maybe hes seen a photo
Report marychain1 April 12, 2012 4:39 PM BST
I rewound it because I couldnt believe it when they called Hunt Ball 3rd ahead of Medermit.

On second viewing it was difficult to tell because there is a horse in the way and you can only see Medermit and not Hunt Ball.

After having viewed it several times it is difficult to be sure, but it is definitely possible that Hunt Ball won 3rd on the nod.

I thought Medermit got up for 3rd as well.

Funny enough just looked at the comments in running on the racing post app for Medermit.

'Chased leaders, hit 11th, outpaced when hit 3 out,switched right and stayed on well run-in, took 3rd post'
