strangely enough I did not want to guess on the fitness levels of the front two.
But,you did not think it would win,Delbert. Not even from your reams of pre race C&P can you aftertime this one,bullshatter supreme ![]() |

Let me see, did any come out here or on the other thread and say that they were backing Bow Echo?
NO The unbeaten Ante Post FAV that you DIDN’T see as being the good thing this time last night! It’s easy to call aftertimer, I took a stance and remain with what I said and posted at 6:18pm ( which is more than you’re ever risked!) |

I don’t see the Needle Match run as being great, yes he has ability but they finished in a bunch and he wasn’t going past Albert at a rate of knots and he’s a nah show here. Needle Match is as low as 10/1 win a Guineas in his 3rd start, Makfi was 33/1 on the day and the last one to do so. Remind me of where this one finished? That the media wanted to get you all on. 2nD Last beaten 21 1/2 L |

Agree Life - Lucky I know you’re on Avicenna I just wondered what people thought of Haneklow not turning up and the general form? To me it doesn’t look good enough and he’s largely being talked up because of the Craven run. Remind me of where this one finished? Last beaten 29 1/2 L and another that the media wanted people on. |

Then we had the switch with Gstaad… Well surprise surprise the substitute ended up getting course experience in the Dewhurst, which if you’ll watch he ran too freely and was reigned back by Soumi (who I don’t think rides the track well) He then stayed on reversing form and looking much bigger than Zavertari who’d beaten him earlier in the year. I expect him to go off Fav and be their sole runner. - - - - A Whole Month Passed by without comment from any of you. And oh my didn’t I get a lot right! ![]() |

I was merely showing that despite thinking that something would beat Bow that I got lots right and don’t just cut and paste but give an opinion.
I treat people as they treat me and if I’m given abuse then my tongue is sharp enough and mind quick enough to fire back. I’m not Autistic and so what if I were? I don’t back down to bullies and meet them on unequal terms because they are in fact below me. Any human that gets their kicks as that creep does needs a Priest or something because I’m all out of pity for him. |

Update
This years Greenham winner didn’t show but I doubt he’d of figured. 2/13winners ran in the Greenham Stakes (Newbury) on their last run, 0 of the 2 won, 1 placed The craven proves a trial to avoid when looking for the Guineas winner. Delashay • March 24, 2026 8:20 AM GMT Why would I like to see the craven skipped? For me it’s not a positive going into the Guineas, the best performances tend to be from horses having their first run there that year, something potentially gets left behind in the Craven. It’s just my recollection over the years, I’ve seen plenty of impressive Craven winners (last years winner Field of Gold a prime example) and it’s always paid to stand your ground and go against them. Since 2004 Only Haafhd Winners of The craven Stakes record in the Guineas after 2025 Field Of Gold 2ND @ 15/8F 2024 Haatem 3rd @ 16/1 2022 Native Trail 2ND @ 5/4F 2021 Master of The Seas 2ND @ 6/1 2019 Skardu 3rd @ 8/1 2018 Masar @ 3rd @ 5/2F 2013 Toronado nk 4th @ 11/4 2012 Trumpet Major 1.25 4th @ 8/1 2011 Native Khan (bumped into one!) 3rd @ 16/1 2009 Delegator (bumped into one) 2ND @ 3/1 2008 Twice Over Went to the Dante where he was 3rd This years winner Oxagon finished 10th beaten 12 3/4L @ 12/1 As said history has shown, “it’s always paid to stand your ground and go against them.” |

I think that it’s also safe to say given the record subsequent record of Gasstd that AOB DID put people away last year by saying that his BEST colt had missed the Coventry.
That’s how far back the narrative of a story goes with this lot, even into this year it was kept alive and punters were left with half truths in reports peddled by the press about likely contenders who would go for this years race. In short it’s disgusting. |

Looking back at the race I felt that Bow Echo was given a hard race, a harder race than he needed, so that might be why he is only second fav for the Irish 2000.
He was further back than he wanted to be and maybe the excitement got to the jockey by trying to win going away and opening up the gap more? To do both Guineas and the St James’ Palace is a difficult thing to do. Bougehy : “I think he has every right to be held in high regard and within his generation he looks a very good horse. He’s fast but he also stays. I don’t think he’s a Derby horse and I’d like to make him champion miler. “There’s the Irish 2,000 Guineas, then there’s Ascot and taking on older horses. I’d like to make him a dual Guineas winner, but he will tell us whether that’s right.” History will show that this time last year despite his narrow defeat at Newmarket, hopes were high that Field Of Gold could go on to rule the mile devision. What was there to stand in his way? Ruling Court was to go towards the Derby, Shadow Of Light was a doubtful stayer over the Curragh and As it miles. History tells us beware of taking short odds on these good things, Bow Echo might make hay but even Paddington’s winning streak came to an end eventually. Before the guineas I’m sure I heard him say that he felt the colt will get 10f so a step up might be on the cards and on class and the way he won it looks well within his compass. |

Days between 2 year old races
27Sep25 There are 21 days between September 6 and September 27 06Sep25 There are 21 days between August 15 and September 5. 15Aug25 There are21 days between the English 2000 Guineas and the Irish 2000 Then 23 days between the Irish 2000 Guineas and the St James’ Palace Stakes 43 days between Ascot and the Sussex Stakes. Field of Gold had taken in one more race on this schedule by taking in the Craven so that will help Bow Echo. But 21 days between Group 1’s is maybe why the likes of Cockney Rebel could do the Guineas double Ascot treble. |
