Can't believe I am saying this but top ride, destroyed Quebecois. He can do it, so why not do it a bit more often?

Was the only horse in the race with Chasing experience, a very good ride though.
The horse has one way of running.
James (useless)Ewart got it beat off 108

Just did it again on Thistle Ask who was 9lb wrong in the handicap. Must have run to at least 145 today which is 30lb improvement in a 3 weeks.
gift them a 10 length lead round there today - asking for trouble
Not sure that they could have done anything to alter the result
Easier when there's no Irish about. For a £100K pot too!
Two nice pots from the front. Doyen Quest was consistently held up out the back over hurdles. Clearly he didn't need to be. I suspect there are plenty more like him. Hopefully, we might see some more attacking rides from Skelton, but I have my doubts. When you see those sort of rides it makes the races a much better watch as well.
Skelton rightly got pelters for using too much energy up too early on a lot of his mounts. He swung the other way more recently, using extreme hold up tactics quite often. Of course it should depend on the horse, the conditions on the day and the opposition. And of course, if the horse has enjoyed the application of cash!
