Where is he running next please ?
Also Imp, in what way has the decision not to run at epsom been vindicated? |

By:
I think City Of Troy would have won regardless given the manner he put away Ambiente Friendly who was travelling so easily 2f out; Mrs Haggas indicated he drifted left at the end in his races. As such, he's inexperienced and needed more time. She also indicated Economics would run over 10f in a Gp 2 next time.

Well Sparrow he bled from the nose after the race and not during (at least from what I can see on the replay). I think anyone believing that was from a bang in the stalls is taking a bit of a leap of faith. sparrow17 May 24 13:29 The bleeding I understood was caused by an injury in the stalls. Following the race, the Veterinary Officer reported that the winner, ECONOMICS, had bled from the nose. The Stewards reviewed footage of the horse in the stalls with the representative of William Haggas, and noted that ECONOMICS’ head had made contact with the front of the starting stalls, when the colt lunged forward having briefly become upset after AL MUSMAK (IRE), was fractious in an adjoining stall during the loading process. Bled again today guys, another stalls injury? |

I layed him in Ireland as I thought he was a bleeder but not today.

The irony is that he swerved the derby to look after him, and then went over to the lions den in Ireland and had a brutal race. Done amazing to win I felt, but could have gone either way after that, and looks like it's the wrong one.

i hope that winter the off will both strengthen him up and perhaps reduce the bleed risk. He has always looked unfurnished to me and I wonder if his raw ability meant that they over faced him this year. He could yet be the real deal but I doubt if he will ever beat Calandagan who was unlucky yesterday.

Calandagan who was unlucky yesterday.
how? winner would have won comfy with a clear run. |
|
By:
Yes the winner was ahead of Calandagan going well, got shoved to the back of the pack, behind Calandangan and passed him easily once in the clear.
Some people are arguing Clandangan would have gone out of reach if getting clear running all the way but I don't see it myself. The winner had gears left when pushed back, as he demonstrated. |
|
By:
All opinions. The winner had the best turn of foot but Calandagan had no daylight either and nor did Iresine. A very unsatisfactory race which told us very little about the relative merits of the field.

the only excuse for 2nd imo,is he used up to much petrol before the straight making up the ground he lost leaving the stalls,he didn't exactly cruise in to a winning position imo

By:
unsatisfactory race yes, but again i say should never ever be run there take it back to newmarket

I`m glad the bleeding debate has resurfaced.Racing establishment taking us betters for mugs! the stallion value going forward has plummeted and he won`t be covering anything in Germany as they ban bleeders from covering duties. sums up the state of british racing trainers and journos reporting what they are told it was obvious to a blind man dancing on strictly the horse had bled in the race at York and not in the stalls. it was all about stallion value.And I maybe wrong but am sure that in France there are various herbal remedies that can be given to stop the bleeding.

Poor ride by Marquand bringing the horse wide into the straight,that is why Dettori was so good at Ascot knew u had to be inside your main opposition turning into the straight at course

run the race again..put dettori on..still wont win.

Economics never looked like winning at any point. I cannot agree it was the jockey's fault. There were too many contributory factors to his defeat.
Does a stallion which bled at races produce bleeders too? |

Economics RIP, Passed away while At stud in India, got colic and could not be saved.
he never quite fulfilled his potential after the Dante and Irish Champion Stakes wins.  |
