I would pull him out. How we have got to this situation after months of dry weather is a joke.
|

By:
It's won twice on good and placed on GF?
Mind there is the consideration that there's the penalty of Buick on it to consider I suppose.... |
|
By:
* 3 times on good.
|

By:
It would be the right decision to pull him out. Keep him fresh for the Eclipse
|

By:
Decent horse goes on any,they know they canna win.
|
|
By:
Like a mug, I am going to keep the faith
Connections know nothing. It's the best horse 5s to 10s means more for me Just about to Nap it. |

Dunno if it is IdiotTV (sic) or RTV but having that silly paddy t@rt piping up occasionally is pf no real benefit.

bloke in tops n tails behind lydia there looked like he hired them last yr and been sleeping under a tree on course ever since

Crawford takes the biscuit with his saxonite comment

Mangan suggesting there is more to this than meets the eye, something we don't know

They suddenly noticed how shoight Buick has been here...?
|
|
By:
Non-Runner confirmed
Notice large St James Palace bets going in |
|
By:
Watering can ?
|
|
By:
What a bunch of f@nnys.
|
|
By:
Whatwould Charlie know aboust stamina?....the guy is clueless ffs.
 |
|
By:
I would estimate that he is light years in front of you Acey and good luck to anybody backing it for RAscot
|

good luck beating gosden's |
|
By:
A good price for Field Of Gold if Ruling Court is rerouted to the SJP.

There will be another day for RC. I believe The Lion in Winter will take a huge step forward from his comeback run in the Dante. I think the trip will suit him, but obviously the going is the unknown. At the prices it worth paying to find out if handles it. GL:

By:
A Bog fair enough but that is decision is ridiculous.
|
|
By:
Shame really, spoils the race to some extent.
Is Epsom now the new Goodwood? |
|
By:
If the COTC hadn't watered the Course we would probably be racing on Good ground and the horse would have run(not that I fancied it)
|
|
By:
I did mention the watering can…
|
|
By:
so called pro,s/trainers spending a fortnight telling you he,s not a miler,will stay ok,pulls out next stop ,st james palace ,just taking people for fooking fools .

By:
The Derby the race everybody wants to Win?....Aye tell Charlie that.
|

By:
given it didn't rain for 3-4 weeks straight through may would be firm ground at best w/o watering
|
|
By:
but he should be aiming for g/f, targeting easy side of good for oaks day is total bs imo
|
|
By:
maybe their filly is a stone in front of their colts at home,so deided whats the point,came looking for a reason not to run
|
|
By:
It's a guessing game.....Only one way to find out.
|

By:
he,s basically ruling out
champions day arc weekend most races in ire going forward and anywhere with gd to sft in the description, 11 days till RA plenty of rain about next week/showers be lucky not have sft in description somewhere at RA |
|
By:
think the defeat of the filly drained the stable's confidence - would have been crushing to lose both derby and oaks with guineas winners
|
|
By:
He does not need to run. I think Appleby could see delaying a decision would not help any backer or supporter of the horse.
The rain has arrived. Another 40 mins to the off. |
|
By:
Bottled it. You don't learn anything from them standing in their box "Aidan O Brien"
|
|
By:
Why risk a 2.8 million classic winning horse on ground that it would hate on a khazi of a track. Correct decision made.
|
|
By:
Is it a risk? Surely not physically.
People go on about the damage that the utter dominance of Coolmore, Willie Mullins, etc; does to racing but for me nothing does the reputation of Racing more damage than this nonsense - withdrawing a fav. from one of the highest profile races on the day of the race. Very, very poor. Charlie Appleby on The Chase - How does one trainer manage to win so many Derbys? Answers - a. Entering and running as many top class horses as possible. b. Declaring them non runners on the day of the race. c. Licking Godolphin’s rss and doing what you’re told. |

Correct decision made my friend
