Many of them have - if you make a load of allowances for all the 'ifs and buts'
However, I hardly find being - a 6 lengths 3rd of 4 (even if it was in a Group3) - with the Comment ... 'Soon settled last but well in touch, pushed along but no impression over 1 1/2f out, one pace final furlong' or - 'Held up in final pair, asked for effort over 2f out, soon ridden, driven along and modest late progress inside final furlong, never a threat' - to be compelling evidence for a bet in a highly competitive £100,000 Handicap But - each to their own view. |
