The 1.01 landed with an aftertime from the certifiable Delbert

Keane out rode them. Kept Ombudsman from getting a crack, saw Constitution River was not settling. Whilst Keane ensured that Ombudsman got no run, legally, if it was an AOB horse doing it, people would be crying AOB tactics. Keane rode one of his better races for Juddmonte.

I don’t like the form of the POW but as said Gosden has him at his track having avoided the clash at Sandown.  There’s gold in them there hills! |

It looked like Action missed the break, so i think Plan A,B, and C went out the window, CR was doing to much. What happened the 2 pacemakers?

Go away you cretin Delbert

99% of horses drawn one on round course last few yrs have finished in the middle of the track,there,ll be no one anywhere near that rail for next 3 days, had had chances early in the straight to outside of the winner

Well they are valid opinions given before the race with formbook back up! Unlucky Kentucky!

You just cannot help yourself Delbert,can you

Buick rode a bad race despite the horse's trainer stating it was not the ground for Ombudsman. A blowout for AOB / Coolmore too. Their tactic went awry, and Con River was just that. A con.
Well done 'ronnie rails'. I hope the winning will see you through York and beyond. |

When you have your horse out the back of the field, you can go wherever you choose. Rushed him up the rail in a panic.

Johnny G having a wee dig at the ground,and quite right….

That is not soft ground. Look at the time
|
|
By:
It is loose ground,brandy
|

By:
Ground dependent more than I thought,Ombudsman,bit of a messy race in the end.
Wnr won well,he didn't get a clean passage but still nabbed Almaqam. Good finish to the race. |

Loving AOB’s blagging after!

Ombudsman looks finnish you just wonder what Corals knew to suspend a good few days back usually no smoke without fire. There you go I laid the beast for my life and was unlucky backed the second at 36.

Really awful or lack of tactics from Gosden. Buick literally followed the script that would lose the race. The horse had had enough once the door opened .
|

By:
Buick looks to have lost a bit of his cool this season.
Best horses today first and second. Not much doubt about that. |

O'Brien has said he expected his other pacemaker to be where the Gosden one was in third so you are correct. But let the headcases fume that the horse was purposely held up out the back |
|
By:
Funny in last two years the race has been a mess with the pacemakers!
Disgrace with the going again at York, shathole. |

What did Buick did wrong?

The thing I have noticed after this race, and it is not going related, one of the ITV team needs to use nose hair clippers.

Delashay 19 Aug 26 11:44 Ive had a decent EW bet on Item..gl lads. Thanks H  |

Looks like pacemaker and holders in are spoiling quality horses chances it reminds you there is no point in taking short prices no matter the race quality.
|

By:
But,you didn't as Hugo's post was a spoof
|

By:
I do not think Gosden Snr will be happy with Buick. The softening ground was already a negative. The $64k question is when will Loughnane take over before another major outfit makes the move for him eg Juddmonte or Shadwell? Crowley has just retired.
