Widnes Two Hats Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 I'd love to know why Battaash doesn't run like that everytime, absolutely unbeatable. Course record too Anyhow, good day at the bookies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting changed at home reminds me of Tranmere away, back in the day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, when he's in the mood, he's fucking unstoppable. Think it’s been half him growing up and half Hills’ team getting to the bottom of him. Last season’s Nunthorpe aside, he’s still been hard to crib, though it would have been more interesting with Blue Point in the race. As it was, if you’d bet according to adjusted OR today (taking out the horse running over five for the first time), I think you’d have hit the Trifecta. Piece of piss in hindsight, obvs. While I’m here, nobody’s shouting about it but are O’Brien’s not running a bit flat at the minute? If anything, I’d say Japan’s run in the Juddmonte the other day could be marked up based on yard form, even if I do think Doyle might have ridden Crystal Ocean differently in a do-over. Soz, my pub mates haven’t turned out so I’m in the pub on my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 You could also put Japan's win down to the fact that Crystal Ocean isn't the horse many "experts" think it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
