If you watch it again closely, she took off at the point where the shadow hits the ground in the low sun. Only obstacle where the sun cast a long shadow due to angle of sun.

It was a just result because bravery was rewarded. Connections of Glen's Melody were going to retire her but decided to have  another go at the race after finishing 2nd in it last year. Annie Power was 2nd in the World Hurdle last year but her connections decided not to have another go at that and took what they thought was the easier option today. The race today was 4pm but the World Hurdle is 3:20pm Thursday. So the sun wouldn't be in the same place Thursday and Annie Power would have won that race.

Whether she jumped the shadow of the hurdle or the hurdle itself she didn't get high enough.
She hit the top and couldn't get her legs down in time.

I wasn't, bollocky, but I take no pleasure from seeing any horse fall, let alone one which had the race all but won. I was taking the piss out of Rollo's post.
Report Rollo Tomasi March 10, 2015 6:47 PM GMT
Mikael,
Are you a bit on the thicko side? I didn't say I took any "pleasure" fron seeing a horse fall. My point is that Mullins and connections had the Mares and World Hurdle winners in their stable. However they ran them in the same race and left the World Hurdle on the table for someone else to pick up.

NWK,
I rarely post on here now because every time I do I seem to a lift a stone and something crawls out, like today.

I hope you are doing well and enjoy your trip over. Give regards to P.

Taquin Du Seil for the Ryanair? I have it with Glen's Melody and had both with Rock on Ruby (NRNB, I thought the only danger was Annie Power, not a bad scope!)

Yep TDS has that look. They know how to win and what is achievable. Done little right so far this season, not travelled or jumped but like you think its all about this week and sure to run well.

Incorrect, good Dr...she was plenty high enough if she'd taken off at correct point...she took off too soon and hit top of flight on way down
