on reflection its one of the worst things ive seen we are used to it being crooked but to a superstar taking the p out of the horse to prove he is right, criminal imo

^ That's the whole 'effing Point - ghostly.
The race is impossible to re-Handicap/Rate with anything approaching accuracy - However The Winner went into the race second top-rated on 169, just a Pound below Native River (who ideally wants softer going than today) CLAN DES OBEAUX - (why can they not give these horses 'proper' National Hunt names) ![]() - has previously run to 173 (twice) - so we have to take it that he has run to, at least, that today.Assuming so - TIGER ROLL - beaten 92 lengths - has run to a Rating of around 80. An 'on his game' - trying for his life - TIGER ROLL could not run 'as bad as an 80' with two legs tied together. |

I know tiger is a specialist, but that effort was down to one person, TR could had been at least running into a place.
the runner up today was a handicapper. |

@Ibrahim Sonko -- "I know tiger is a specialist, but that effort was down to one person, TR could had been at least running into a place."
To run into a place, Tiger Roll would have to have beaten the Gold Cup fourth and previous Gold Cup winner, Native River. Not even O'Leary's worst enemies would say Tiger Roll is a Gold Cup horse! |

If you watched the race and you don't think he could have done better than he did, then you are living in another galaxy.

By:
How could Tiger Roll "have done better than he did"?
Even if Tiger Roll might have finished closer to Native River, there is nothing to suggest he would have finished in front of a genuine Gold Cup horse. |

anyone watches tiger knows he has only one gear for the past few years, and not going to get another one at 11. there was no point kennedy giving him a slap
