Anyone looking back on this one would want to be the biggest apoligist of all time to say the stewards got this one wrong.

But isn't it the same old story, it's always the little guy?, when the flat season starts Coolmore will revert to habit and we'll see scores and scores of their horses making improvement that defies logic, the only mistake Dennis Quinn made was he had the horse reasonably fit, do what O'Brien does have them fit enough to run like drains!.

The stewards done their job correctly in this case, and I'm their biggest critic, but it would make one hell of a difference if they actually bring in an untouchable, you know the untouchables that can do as they please when they please without the slightest fear of been taking to task?.

Workrider there is an incredible apathy that infects punters, this is particulary true in the case of Irish punters, only in Ireland are gambles thought of as some sort act of god, one up on the old enemy the bookmakers, yet they backed the r/up the fav themselves.

Their menatality is astounding!!!
