Considering his ease of victory with all that occurred during this race. I wondered, that if this horse was handicapped on previous form, either the handicapper got it well wrong or the trainer is the master of 'finessing'. Which of those two scenarios would you consider correct ?

Neither. The rest ran it like a 5f sprint and set fire to each other until they all burned out and this poor quality animal ran on through the ashes.

Interesting but without sectionals to compare with that race, not sure. Admit they did go a fair lick for that distance.

11 lbs better off with it's Stablemate - for finishing 2 and a half lengths behind it in the 2 mile Northumberland Plate.
THEN - 5 subsequent defeats at a 1m4f - two defeats at 1m6f - and a LAST of 13 in a two-miler - - obviously did nothing to hinder it's Handicap mark. |

You have to wonder
- lost bucketloads of lengths at the start - gave away more yards and yards switching from the fence all the way round the outside of the whole field - got a few bumps in running from tiring horses - plus suspect stamina (?) 12 furlongs longest ever race victory - beaten over 100 lengths on last race on soft! (pointed out on other thread) |
