Road To The RSA Chase

Painfull Hamm, I had Boston Bob but my stakes were small.

Feet up and watch the aeroplane now....

Mine weren't huge but it was a couple of big priced doubles.

I feel dizzy. I was looking at the end of the race but I had no idea who won.

Had the bank on Boston Bob at 6/4 to beat Unioniste in a matched bet... bugger

5yos have a crap record in this (even when top-rated favourites it seems), Boston had to finish in front!!

 

[Euronymous]

That was orfevre like in terms of pain.

I need Sprinter Sacre to cheer me up.

 

[granger]

Boston bob not just because of connections is very similar to Tidal Bay in how he races. Takes an age to warm up

 

[Colin Phillips]

Winner looks to have lots of room for improvement, looked quite green after the last.

It was very bad. I feel dizzy.

 

[chroniclandlord]

Boston Bob showed a turn of foot today that hadn't been apparent in other races this season. No consolation to those scalded today, but he'll have other days.

...Clinging on to my 11/10 vouchers.

He left them for dead round the turn as well. If his jumping improves he'll be some tool in the future.

If you watch it back I think Townend is surprised by how well he picks up when asked rounding the bend that he thinks about taking a pull... Not sure he needed to cut across the whole field. Either way you have to stand up to win!

Too true Aragorn.

 

[Bonjers]

Boston Bob's fall was a sickener, I've not seen him quicken up like that before. Most importantly though, he seems to be safe and sound.

The jockey put Boston Bob on the floor. Watch the head-on, hes all kick, slap, boot him in the ribs and the horse is going "WTF are you on about, what am I supposed to do?" Splat! If he'd left him alone, he wouldn't have confused him.

 

[On The Bridle]

Congrats to the luck boxes that backed Lord Windermere....haven't watched the race yet ... Still sick

 

[Euronymous]

It'll have to be viewed a few times because my initial impression was he just left zoomed round the turn like a proper good horse. Fantastic engine. Just hit the stop button before the last.

Lord Windemere for me too, connections seem confident.

Reading these posts last night regarding LW has pulled me out of a hole after PA,big well done to you all or picking him out and thank you.

 

[Aragorn]

He got to the front much quicker than he expected and panicked a bit I reckon... Jock and horse. LW wasn't beaten when Boston Bob fell though so he wasn't definitely going to win.

Lucky in gambling unlucky in love pal.

Although Del Boy is just unlucky...

That's what judges like me are here for. I know how to sell a bet right or wrong

...modest to boot!

Modesty and guessing is not in my make up.

But yet you have so much to be modest about.

Harsh but fair. I moved into the lucrative 28-32 single females, scared they're not going to meet someone market. I tick the two boxes, I have a job and a pulse.
