You're right Jimnast - Sangsters - I remember as a student just starting UNI - it was my first day - I saw it very unlucky in it's previous race and missed getting on the Arc - listened on radio with my dad, depressed to hear it bursting through to win at about 8 to 1 I think - early days of an illustrious betting career - NOT! :) - ah well, it'll all be over soon enough. :D ..... won't be betting in the Arc - never any use to me, even laid last year's winner - how could that jock win an arc.... yeuk.

tbf catching ECP was one of the greatest races, for sure.

By:
Yes montjue he never saw which way sinndar went the year after.
|
|
By:
notwithstanding the Ascot romp, for me he was past his best at 4. Travelled with his usual panache but didn't find once let down. I personally put it down to running on the hard ground in Tokyo.

Quite possibly cider
|
|
By:
He was that good that he was still able to win group 1s on the bridle. Can't do that in the Arc though. Sinndar was a champion in his own right.

Correct on both statements there cider

Hukum last 4 races on RH tracks 1111
 Draw a neg and going a touch quicker than ideal but he has an excellent record on good. Around 13/2 on the machine looks a very fair price IMO. The Japanese horse looks interesting as it has improved a lot from 4yo-5yo |

Hukum big price here. wade in.

By:
Onesto 6.0 top 5 only bet, pleased it didn't win outright as would have kicked myself !

That horse is a machine. Top class performance. Dancing Brace esque

What a horse Ace Impact? A cracking run on the outside; the trun if foot did the business big time. A Dancing Brave run!!!

A Peintre Celebre turn of foot

By:
Yes Hayden he was brilliant arc day
|

One of the best ever winners of this great race.
|
|
By:
Outstanding winner. Draw and the quick going was too much for Hukum.
|
|
By:
Hukum a bit below his best but wouldn't have beaten the winner at his best.
Best ever, for me, for quickening twice in the race, was Sea The Stars. |
|
By:
That draw was an absolute killer and throw in the quicker going. I still played because he's done me a good few turns over the years but lost the minimum I could there. But like you say, he wouldn't have beat the winner even with ideal conditions.
|

By:
4.1 s faster than standard.

By:
Ace Impact vs Equinox would be an interesting race
|
|
By:
Cor yes
|
|
By:
Ace Impact if at Longchamp even on good ground. Until Equinox runs in Europe (not Meydan) my money will always be on Ace Impact.
|

One of the best ever winners sparrow
I will leave you with this before I go out for a nice Sunday lunch These are the 5 who chased him home Westover 4 from 13 Onesto 3 from 12 Through seven seas 4 from 13 Continuous 4 from 8 Bay bridge 7 from 15 |
|
By:
Also 14 lengths covered the field.
|
|
By:
Maybe Sparrow was talking about Peintre Celebre
|
|
By:
Apologies sparrow if that was the case
 |

By:
Just caught a replay of the race, super win. Looking at the results seems as though most of the form horses/fancied ones won. Maybe next season they should have a Royal Longchamp instead of Ascot.
|
|
By:
To add looking at it again with a clear run earlier think the O'Brien horse should have been placed.
