I doin't know a lot about sectional timing, but it seemed to me the gallop they went in the derby around Epsom was more conducive to the naked eye for Camelot coming from the back, than it was in the St Leger.
As Steve aludes to, the biggest issue last Saturday was, would Camelot get the trip?
I'm sad to say, due to Joseph keeping the horse on a leash for so long thats it appears to have left people in doubt as to wheher he does actually stay!
If you're on the best horse in the race, and you think you are, you just don't ride him like that.
An excellent anaylsis by SteveM imo.
O Brien is known for his meticulous planning and attention to detail, but this is one occasion where the plan was like a plan C or D, rather than a plan A or B.
Alistair Downs views in the Post on Saturday, were an abomination to the common sense of most people, or'people who frequent saloon bars' as he put it up and down the country.
By these people I take it he means the mugs who finance the sport through betting shops so he can broadcast it on channel 4.
Nice one, Alistair.
