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.

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).

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.

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.
