Obviously not a non trier, but undoubtedly one of the worst rides of the season in a big race.

I saw it differently. Horse was never travelling as well as he did in Gold Cup. This race after GC is a step too far. Non of the GC horses performed at all.

one question , do you think mccoy woulda got beaten o it, personally i think hed have won on it , waslh is fine on good jumping easy travelling horses but dont anyone ever kid themselves hes in mccoys class.i dont think it was a disasterousride by any means but certainly not a great one.agreed the horse made one real poor jump(it does happen over three mile races) but i think it travelled well, finished the best and was beaten only a couple of lengths.i personally tink  ridden  more prominently it would just about of won.

Push on mate. Enjoy the afternoon !
Report metro john • April 4, 2013 3:06 PM BST
Look all of em looked ott,but that was a shocking ride ,not much pace drops him behind,butyou probably sensed he was not at it a long way out? then the final two turns he went the wide route just to make sure(cost a couple of lenths job done). It 's all about opinions,but if that had been Cheltenham most would be up in arms.

zarkandar didnt uproot any jumps, and SC has always been held up.

Report asparagus • April 4, 2013 3:19 PM BST
Siliviniaco has not been held up like that in any of its recent runs. I can't remember every race but certainly the last 5 or 6. he's generally tracked leaders and has also made the running.
Report throwthetellyoutawindow • April 4, 2013 3:20 PM BST
Don't think Ruby's put a foot wrong all anoon and that was a very fine ride their on Zarkandar wish i'd backed him.
Report sickoflayinwinners • April 4, 2013 3:30 PM BST
ibraham, silvino has not always been held up  hes made all the running to win on at least one maybe more occassions.i think he was ridden a bit more quietly at chelters cos  of the more syaing kind of race the gold cup is.im not saying he had to make the running just that a more aggressive ride may have got the job done.
Report sickoflayinwinners • April 4, 2013 3:31 PM BST
also when he was allowed to bowl along in front he made no jumping errors, in fact quite the oposite , he jumped brilliantly,
