Racing today. Coral Eclipse

Well he was pretty good again. What a lovely horse City of Troy is.

I was underwhelmed by him, very hard work against horses he should be beating easily

 

[Clodagh]

Not his distance, not his going. He still won, you can do no more.

Why are Magnier’s horses always down as owned by his wife? Not a criticism, I’m just curious.

Interesting race.

He's a very good horse, no mistake but a great horse? Jury's still out for me.

As an aside it was nice to see Apple Away get a mention leading Lucinda's string in the Home Schooling clips.

A friend's horse had a great win at York. Star of Lady M.

And Lion in Winter. Great to see Coolmore with a Sea the Stars. I hope he trains on.
COT, his stride reminds me of Frankel, it just extends so far in front of his nose. Gorgeous horses.

I should add that I know sweet FA about flat racing, but I do follow her.

Exactly. You can only beat the horses that are there on the day.

I thought he run a cracking race on a ground and distance combination that doesn’t really suit him, and never really looked like losing.

I am trying to get more interested, as I have RUK and it’s wasted for 6 months!
