Planet of Sound

And this is why NH rules. I had a bet in neither race but was urging both of the old boys home. Top days racing.
 
And here's me; thinking Planet Of Sound's win typifies the poor standard of racing prevalent at this time of the year. :lol:
 
Great to see Captain Chris put his best foot forward too - ripped Champion Court to shreds . He seems in better form this year and the Ascot Chase could be his this year.

shows how much you know then! A horse running off a mark 8lb lower than his best winning one with a long history of running very well on his seasonal debut betting as the 2nd least fancied in the field.

No brainer for a bet.

His last rating was 166 when he won the Punchestown Gold Cup from War of attrition, Cooldine and Denman . So 22lb below his last winning mark !
 
Hobbs' has had a poor few seasons recently due to a nasty virus they couldn't seem to get rid off. Now everything seems to be OK, those decent horses in the past are recovering their form.

The no-brainer is judging the quality of a race by whether you've won or lost on it. :)

Nope

The "quality" of the race has nothing to do with my winnings or even the prize money

It's about seeing a performance or a finish and most especially a narrative. Something to remember

Was it more more memorable than a 50k sprint handicap or some sales race?

You bet your fcking life it was
