Slower next to the rail, challenge should have been wide and later. He did panic imo.

Pocket happy :-)
Sad that (lasix-free) Golden Horn just failed. Amazing horses though |
|
By:
Thought GH looked unhappy on the ground most of the way around myself.

I reckon the Arc and the long trip over to America + long season just hit the top off Golden Horn. Didn't like to see him get beat, but still ran very gamely.

Weaver talking through his ar*e again , found had been given shocking rides the last twice, she just showed what she can do if ridden handily to the pack instead of sitting last till it's too late
|

By:
Arc winners just don't win the race, a combination of factors have likely seen him run well below his best.
|

looks like Justin rose stood behind tabor there!

By:
Great to see Found finally get a big one in the bag.
Golden Horn just undone by the ground/long season IMHO. Frankie rode perfectly I thought. Take Found out, and lasix-free Golden Horn has won it. GH is still an outrageously good horse! |

By:
gave 7lb.to found.
|
|
By:
gave the filly 3 lbs
|
|
By:
3 IB actually

Good ride by Moore. Pinned GH to the worst ground - simples.

That was her 8th Race,
She only ran 14 days ago, She was Beaten in the Arc when the Track favoured Horses racing in the first 4 and Not held up, A Great Performance, Golden Horse, Beaten by 2 Fillies/Mares in his Career  |

By:
7lb ? Golden horn is down to carry 8.10 and Found 8.7
|

You'd have to wonder now about softish ground for Golden Horn. In the process of potentially getting done in Ireland on it.
And beaten on it at York by the 116 rated Arabian Queen, who was well and truly put in her place by Treve (comfortably beaten by the Horn in the Arc) in the Prix Vermeille. |

was this not known before the race?
|

By:
last night they were saying the turf had quickened even after the rain they had. Suddenly it's opened up like the red sea.
|

My friend is Ponying the runners to the start, they say the Turf is Good, plenty of sand underneath, Turf Track drains well, Times are Fast on the Turf Track,
Times are even faster on the Dirt track, Track Records Bettered on Friday and Saturdays racing there. |

was this not known before the race? i think your question is rhetorical but there are a lot of mugs on here so i'll just point out that millar mentioned it on atr about 10 times in the last 3 hours and finally, note that the runner up isnt even his father;s best ever so let's keep a bit of perspective. else jack hobbs is 4 lbs worse than one of the best ever...christ |

By:
Frankie well and truly outridden by the best jockey in the World. A most pleasing result, and no sickening flying dismount either.
|
|
By:
sid, i take your point, but running fast on sand is completely different to running fast on turf (turf which isn't giving way to the sand beneath).
That's why some horses don't act at Ascot (fast draining sand base) and why some horse don't act on the various underfoot conditions of the all weather. |
|
By:
First time I've backed the animal after laying him in the Arc bleeding typical !!! I backed Found last time out and she was given a shocking ride. But yeah I'm gutted he lost.. He was a sitting duck coming of that bend .

Champion Miler Solow has Won his last 3 races in 1Min 42Secs, 1Min 39Secs and 1Min 38Secs,
Yesterday the 2 year olds were Winning over 1 mile turf in 1Min 39Secs, that's Both the 2 year old races, Don't tell me the Track has any Soft, its Not. |
|
By:
All I would ask you sid is if you would be happy backing known good ground turf form on this turf ground, regardless of times.
|
|
By:
Yes, why Not?
Did you read my article on here about the Longchamp Arc meeting Track Bias?. |
|
By:
i didn't my friend, and in reference to your question, I refer you to my earlier post (21.35)
