Doyle surrounded by family O'Brien there...

The horse never went a yard

Both are correct. The horse ran bad anyway but he was never going to be able to win from that OB tpac.

The brief drone shot showed a very incriminating look from one of the 'pacemakers' jock on the outer. Perhaps the pesky kids journeyed from Ascot.

It's my own fault really. Should have paid more attention to being drawn 2. After 1f I knew my bet was in big trouble. Ryan managed, in the final furlong, to ensure the Haggas horse was not in first 4.

Best horse one easily, but they don't even try to hide the mob tactics. If they are ridden like Inis or the Bolger horse to secure a run, then it's virtually impossible to win from there at that track on fast going (only if there is a mega pace collapse).

I think it was Sky Racing's prize idiot, Dave Orton, who was suggesting this morning that Haggas was 'massively in-form'. Just checked and it's 6 winners from nearly 50 runners. I suspect many of those have been relatively short. Yes, massively in-form, for the bookmakers. Lovely cheerleading steer, yet again.
