So, can Camelot win the Leger and take the Triple Crown?

[Cazzah]

I would love to see a horse finally acheive this after a 42 year wait since Nijinsky. Can Camelot do it?

 

[Elf On A Shelf]

Yes! I do believe he can!

 

[flashmans]

I hope so!

 

[Cazzah]

Guess we'll find out in about 20 minutes!

Gutted I aren't there - was at Ladies Day on Thursday and drove past the course about 12 today - the atmosphere on the roads around was buzzing already at that point. I can imagine the cheers will be immense if he manages it!

I need a live blog!

I need a live blog!

Haha, guessing its not on TV with you. I will try...

they are just on the way to post at the moment. All looking calm.....

 

[Cazzah]

Few looking a bit hot waiting to go into the stalls. Few jockeys have jumped off to give them a breather....

 

[Cazzah]

They're off. Camelot tucked in 2nd last. Reasonable pace....

 

[Cazzah]

Pace picking up...

 

[Cazzah]

Didn't quite stay or quicken enough! Came in 2nd a length behine Enke!!

The record remains Nijinsky's

Badly ridden IMO. He let him her boxed in and by the time he got a gap it was too late.

 

[flashmans]

I agree with Scarlett, definitely looked like he left it too late to get off the rail. Also agree with John (Francome), Camelot didn't look too happy for the whole race...

 

[Scarlett]

Joseph O'Brien always seems a little arrogant to me - I think that might have bright him back to earth with a bump. Horse didn't look itself either.

Shame would have loved to have seen the triple done.

Daddy's not going to be happy with that ride

Was I the only one giggling when Barcelona's saddle slipped? I'm by far from his biggest fan and that kinda pee'd on his fireworks

Is it bad that I wanted the saddle to slip all the way round?
