Southwell training run didn't help

You would think the Coolemore boys at times know very little. Running CoT on this surface now looks baffling

Ryan did a good job avoiding kick back but COT wasn't loving racing on beach or worse surface

Southwell training run didn't help a complete irrelevance...maybe the lads will try laytown next year |

By:
They could have avoided the kick back by staying at home.

so happy 365 never went 3/1

By:
good decision not to run at the laytown meeting wouldn't have beat the tide in

They ran it cos they had a good un in sierra,so the outcome for cot was if it wins great if not we win anyway ....

Coolmore also bought stallion rights of Fierceness pre-race.

That's called managing one's position. I'm sure some players do the same here with their bets/positions.

I get Aiden saying his charge was behind the 8 ball after the start, but the lad never went a yard on that surface.
Wasn’t like no other horses came from the back on the night. If ever there was an example of a horse not acting, this was it. |

It was a bad preparation - unprofessional and arrogant - if I was being critical. I do not think connections will ever embark on a similar attempt in the future; once bitten, twice shy (or deserved ridicule next time).

No horse trained in the British Isles has ever won the Classic on dirt. The WAS a Rench winner at huge odds back in the 90s.
I doubt I will live to see another one from Europe win. It would probably help if they put an American jockey on though. |

Ravens Pass won the 2008 Classic ridden by Dettori but it wasn't dirt. The Americans quickly tore up the Tapeta as they really don't like Europeans winning it. That was my only day at the Breeders Cup and the Europeans had a field day. Conduit, Goldikova, Mukannah and Donativum completed a 5 timer for Europe.

Conduit not such a memorable day for Money Tree as i recall , great lay thread from the good old humorous days on the forum
 |

By:
i rem that as well, think it was something like lay conduit back curlin lay ravens

Think you're right elise , then he followed it a few months later with the 100/1 lay of Mon Mome in the National
|
|
By:
yes another thread he dropped into the classic bucket
|
|
By:
He had a great recovery mission though , following a bad lay at 100 he could recoup by laying a couple of 60+ shots so must have one hell of a staking plan
 |
|
By:
ive always thought he was backing when he said he was laying, or certainly on some of the mega priced ones, that way he once in a while pocketed a big win and started a thread which would get 1000 replies

Yes a few thought that but guess we'll never know unless he comes clean.
