cirrus des aigles

jockeys whip

Lack of fitness?

does tend to need the run these days, i want to play but don't think i can take the chance no nothing about the french form

when injured before did he not need his comeback run?

Corine Barande-Barbe's charge will be aiming for a Fourth success in the 10-furlong heat,
Having lifted the prize in 2010, 2012 and 2013.
Beaten a Sort Neck in this race 2011.

Corine Barande-Barbe is confident Cirrus Des Aigles will be fit enough to do himself justice as he shoots for a fourth success in the Prix Dollar at Longchamp.

The eight-year-old is the star attraction on the first day of Arc weekend as he tries to supplement his victories of 2010, 2012 and 2013 in the 10-furlong heat.

Cirrus Des Aigles will be having his first start since pulling up lame after winning the Coronation Cup at Epsom back in June and Barande-Barbe is seeking another good performance ahead of a planned return to Champions Day at Ascot.

The popular gelding has run in the Champion Stakes for the last three years, winning once and finishing second twice - including to Frankel - and connections are eager to maintain his presence.

Barande-Barbe told Racing UK: "He's very well and will be ready for the Dollar. He's enjoyed coming back into work and is showing a lot of good signs.

"He'll be ready. Two years ago he was stopped in June, came back for the Dollar and won.

"We'll run in the Dollar for the fifth time, then the Champion Stakes for the fourth time. We won that, then were second twice, now we have to win again. Then after that, we'll think about Hong Kong and then Dubai.

"We are very excited about getting Cirrus des Aigles back on a racecourse - I can't wait until Saturday. If all goes well then, he will head on to Ascot."

The presence of Cirrus Des Aigles appears to have discouraged a number of possible rivals with just seven going to post, with both Fractional and Pilote representing Andre Fabre.

i don't know koi dont completely trust the trainer as i think she loves the horse too much to be objective

hope he wins though

This thread every year hahha

Hes 400 years old and his target is english champion

That`s probably why he`s Won Over £5 Million

Fitness, ground's not ideal and he's got to give 6lb to Fractional who looks a decent horse

Fractional has to be a 1.7 Place Lay

£50,000 put on this Fav the past 10 Minutes.

What a legend.  So good to see him back thought he was gone at Epsom carrying that leg.. class

could lose it in the stewarts

Inquiry

i think cirrus ok personally

he.ll lose it

french rules should mean he will be placed 2nd i would had thought

hopefully he keeps it for backers but they're pretty serious about that sort of thing over there.

Disqualifying CDA in France would be like disqualifying The Queen's horse at Royal Ascot.
Very unpopular!

most, if not all bookies, only pay first past post on uk/ire racing so lots riding on this

I'd be worried if that was over here, never mind in France

any odds on the inquiry ?

has to go   but will they throw out the crowd fav

No

based on the replay can't keep the race

over here 100% would keep it
in France shorter odds but imo will keep it
contact was minimal at best

Three Six Five pay out first past the post on French racing, don't they?

4/5 to keep it would be my guess

356

Pay out on Disqualified Horses:  We will pay out on both the disqualified horses and the official winner on all win and each way bets on Horse Racing in the UK and Ireland. Now includes bets placed ante-post. No more waiting for a steward’s enquiry - first past the post is the winner!

he hampered the 3rd and bumped the second and won by shd....not a hope of being allowed to keep in o.er there

Cheers Fozwald.  Keeps it for me.

reversed.

R1 C4      QNB Prix Dollar 
16:34:09 Arrivée provisoire - 3 Fractional - 5 Hippy - 6 Calling out - 7 Planetaire

based on general French rules for interference it will stink if he keeps it.

why do the french rules always catch people out...other than coolmores arc they,re v simple

Good job the place betting wasn't in running

didn't expect 5th....that's blown place backers too

had to go.

that arc still bugs me.

idiot rules in france

how many good horses have lost races over there

i like their rules

i was expecting to be placed 3rd not fifth :s

the Dylan Thomas one? I think...there was some extra stuff that season that was taken into consideration like Kieron getting unseated on Eagle Mountain in the Grand Prix du paris and not putting in a complaint against the French jockeys who railroaded him.

didnt know that elg...by the way is wise dan a shoo in tonight?

layed cirrus at 1.4 and 1.19 in running so gonna play up tonight

Andy Street will be seething...

Sillymay. Reported. Aftertimer

thought the same

always one clown

You'd have to wonder why Soumillon switched his whip to his right hand.

just be careful at keeneland tonight. there was heavy rain last night and the last set of races were taken off the turf and onto the new dirt track. and if you think they wont move a grade1 well they moved last years and WD lost (and that was when they had polytrack).

dont think the horses was on top of his game today for whatever reason....

i lve pp

grw123 I know what you mean I just don't know what your talking about

Only just watched it , a seven pound claimer would have his head ripped off by the trainer for that switch of the whip hand ......hopeless.

aftertimimg...follow the thread....then again actually abilty to read is suspect sometimes...grow up prick(s)
ps thx ELG gonna lay back stake now and enjoy winnings for today

Some of the lies you tell are not even true!
