Looks a terrific race and officially relegates the Coronation to third best race on saturday`s card this year. I like the favourite a lot but is rain forecast?

Equiano has franked Marchand dOR`s form big time.

 

[Harbinger]

There is some rain due during the week, whether there'll be anything left of it by Saturday - or whether it will matter on the straight course - is hard to know.

I am unlikely to run, as I am going to a christening that day.

Just so as you know.

Given todays result you cannot back anything until you see the draw.

 

[Bar the Bull]

Do you really think the draw had that much of an impact?

I don't.

 

[Guest_]

If your drawn either side with no pace (I am not saying there is a difference in the ground) your fecked.

 

[Colin Phillips]

Didn't think that the horses that ran up the far side did that bad.

I thought the grey was in front at one point.

I don't.

Problem is jockey`s are like lemmings and they might all track stand side from now on. I doubt the ground is slower far side.

 

[Bar the Bull]

Fair enough. But I think that there will be a big enough field in the GJ, thus meaning that their will be at least 8 horses on the far side, meaning it is unlikely that there will be no pace.

If you follow me.

 

[Colin Phillips]

Thought you said you weren't running?! shrug::

 

[Bar the Bull]

Well I am trained by Bolger.

A fair bit of rain is forecast over the next couple of days so i`ve taken 20s on Soldier`s Tale.

 

[Homer J]

Zidane if it stays quickish.

 

[an capall]

US Ranger is a nailed on, died in the wool, triple lock, cast iron, certainty.

 

[Harbinger]

...to be running on at the end?

 

[Irish Stamp]

We´ve seen that our sprinters are poop again, yet people still put up British adn Irish sprinters in these big races.

Only had a few major sprints this year yet they´ve been shown up by the French and Spanish. Come on Marchand D´Or!!

 

[Charlie D]

I wouldn't call sprinters like Sakhees Secert, Soldiers Tale poop Martin

 

[Grand Armee]

Seachange from NZ, if at her best, should win this.

 

[Gamla Stan]

Incredibly tough at first glance. I'd say it's between Marchand D'Or and Sakhee's Secret but there is surely some value in there somewhere. I just haven't unearthed it as of yet.

 

[Charlie D]

Like the look of Sakhees, but he don't appeal at current odds


This years is a tough un as Gamla states

 

[Charlie D]

And why US Ranger is price he is, i ain't a clue


Eyecatching run LTO, but he has not got one peice of form that suggests he's a 15-2 poke

 

[davidjohnson]

Overhyped ungenuine prime mince is US Ranger imo.

Needs 10 furlongs in my book.
