Frankel V Canford Cliffs

[SteveM]

Also Coral are going 7/2 that Canford wins by a length or more, which seems the likeliest result to me.

 

[LUKE]

Took a couple of hours off work to watch this -had a half decent bet on Frankel at 8/11.May the best horse win-we need a proper race unlike last Saturday.

 

[Hamm]

I'm firmly in the Canford camp. I think this could come down to the jockeys though - Hughes needs to stay close to Frankel, and Queally needs to time carefully when to go.

 

[Gearoid]

Staying close to Frankel might not be easy.

 

[hezz]

Head says Frankel, heart says Canford.

COME ON CANFORD!!!

 

[Harbinger]

Canford out to nearly 2s on Betfair.

 

[LUKE]

Pocket says Frankel-head says odds on betting is poison.

 

[Harbinger]

You know when they talk about a turn of foot...

 

[Cantoris]

WOW

 

[Gearoid]

Canford Cliffs looked slow.

 

[Hamm]

Easy for Frankel, no contest in the end.

 

[chroniclandlord]

Frankel's best performance yet and a top ride from Queally.

 

[LUKE]

Am I righ in saying neither jockey went for the whip.

 

[swedish chef]

Different Class - Absolutely brilliant :adore:

 

[SteveM]

Well played Frankel supporters... if he's ridden like that he'll win the Champion Stakes.

 

[Harbinger]

Ridden like that, he'll win anything.

 

[links781]

don't think we will ever see this machine beaten.Absolutely awesome.

 

[Hamm]

Am I righ in saying neither jockey went for the whip.

I think so.

Good to see it was straight forward and jockeys had no effect on the race.

Not really Canford's true form though based on Rio de la Plata, but no doubt who the better horse is.

 

[Harbinger]

The slow start will have allowed the other two to get closer than they should have.

 

[LUKE]

And we still don't know how good he is.

 

[Gearoid]

Am I righ in saying neither jockey went for the whip.

Yes.

 

[davidjohnson]

Oi Oi. Good 'oss.

 

[Bar the Bull]

Absolutely savage.

I think that is as good as Canford is...maybe a pound or two short.

Frankel has shown on three occasions that he is a monster.

Two questions.

1. Why did CC hang? Too much effort or a problem?
2. What was the time like?

 

[imagine]

Brilliant performance. He's some horse.

 

[Hamm]

Oi Oi. Good 'oss.

Well done..
