Did you folks watch the actual race?
I proved to be spot on and I'm a total genius as always, the favourite was ridden to kick on round the bend and pinched a 3-4 lengths lead on Stephanie Frances who was then nudged along to keep tabs (the jockey was caught out a little), however the favourite was NOT able to shake her off or pull away. At three out the favourite was STILL only 3-4 lengths ahead and Stephanie Frances was clearly a serious threat, and had almost come back onto the bridle. The female puppy was ready to pounce. Please watch the video replay on 365 for free (just go to the results section at the bottom) and you'll agree with me. Even the commentator after the race said that Stephanie Frances was being "nudged along gently" when she fell three out, 3-4 lengths is nothing when 3 out over fences and the rider of Stephanie Frances looked pretty confident of winning and was enjoying riding her before she fell. Vaniteux was being hard ridden in front if you watch the replay carefully just to maintain his advantage, only after the favourite's jockey looked back and saw that she'd fallen he relaxed, he was clearly relieved as he knew that he had a real race on his hands. It's impossible to know what would have happened if Stephanie Frances hadn't fallen, but her potent turn of foot and the weight she was receiving could have closed the minor 3-4 lengths in my opinion. The favourite may still have won of course, but it would have had to have been hard ridden all the way to the finish to stop Stephanie Frances from accelerating past and it would've likely been a 1-3 lengths win at best, at worst Stephanie Frances would've swept past and won. It's a pity she fell, I'd have loved to have seen the jockey ride her hard had she not fallen... her turn of foot would've kicked in and made it very interesting... we were robbed of an exciting finish. Instead the jockey on the favourite was able to show off after she fell, as he was left well clear and had no other serious challengers. Yes well done Nicole you lucky boy, you were about to wet yourself until Stephanie Frances fell weren't you? Lady luck was on your side, and instead you got to go into the winners' enclosure with a smug smile on your face, get praised by the trainer instead of getting a good telling off, and you got to use the gents instead of doing it during the race. Vaniteux may well turn out to be a high class chaser, but still has something to prove as he was gifted this race. The race was far too tricky which is why I didn't bet on it, anyone who backed the favourite... well done but you were let off the hook by Stephanie Frances falling... you weren't made to sweat so count your lucky stars. Should they meet again it'll be interesting if Stephanie Frances can stop behaving like drunk girl at a nightclub, clipping heels and falling last time out, falling over when in contention this time... stop trying to impress the male horses Stephanie and have some self respect next time. You're a horse and you're supposed to be professional, you can roll around in the stable in your spare time when not racing or training but learn to work hard, play hard. I wrote such a long post on you on here saying you were up there with the favourite man horse (colt) and could possibly beat him, you've made me feel like someone who introduces their new classy girlfriend to their friends/family and then she does something embarrassing like a huge fart. Not funny. |

Are you Nicole's partner or related to him? Did you see him look behind him after Stephanie Frances fell, he looked like a guy who'd just heard a "not guilty" verdict in court despite there being strong evidence against him. There was strong evidence that Nicky Henderson's hyped up puppy was not the impressive puppy that he'd promised. Lucky puppy, lucky trainer and lucky Nicole. Time will tell whether his puppy really is the high class chaser he claims, but Nicky Henderson does occasionally hype up the chances of his horses (as do most trainers, to be fair). Like his bullish comments in the following race on his other puppy Polly Peachum, she got beaten and all the punters who listened to him got burned. Polly Peachum was also in front but got worn down towards the finish which proves my point, with Vaniteux the horse who was about to pounce in a similar fashion fell. Not bad for racing however as I wouldn't have wanted Nicky Henderson to leave the racing scene, if Vaniteux and Polly Peachum both lost he would've gone into a cave totally mortified, and would have never been seen again. |

Stop posting on this thread please as it needs to die, Stephanie Frances fell so we'll never know what would've happened if she'd stayed up.
I believe she would've given the favourite a tough battle but I'm biased because I spent hours studying this race and I'm rarely wrong. But I should be thanked and praised for all the time and effort put into my detailed analysis. I only like seeing posts which are compliments after the races I start threads on, "well done", "you're the man", "fantastic winner", "spot on analysis" and that sort of thing. I expect the same of everyone... If I spend time driving to McDonald's to get my wife a meal, I don't expect any smart-ass comments from her when I return or I'll treat her like dirt for 2-3 weeks for being ungrateful. Even if a few fries fell out by mistake or I got her the wrong sauce by mistake, I'd still expect her to thank me for the effort and time involved. If she behaves and says thank you which she usually does, then I happily go and get her another meal from McDonald's whenever she's hungry again. Manners... I practice what I preach... if my wife spends two hours putting make up on so she looks acceptable, I thank her before we go somewhere special and we have a great time instead of me being embarrassed by her. |

Be honest, there is no wife is there?
I wish you were right, I'm planning to divorce mine next year to be honest. Because she isn't as attractive as before. I'm studying a few relationship books I ordered off Amazon to see if it's possible to not divorce my wife because I do love her. I think cheating is wrong and always have, but nature will force me into it without a resolution as many other women are hotter and I'm far more attracted to them. Currently going through Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus and a few other self help books from relationship experts. |
