What a great 1st round John Whitaker rode. Casino is not the most natually speedy, and is a better horse outdoors. I saw him looking very promising when Kelly Brown rode him as a youngster. To my eyes John did everything right, and was unlucky not to win, the horse only catching the front rail of the last with one hind leg.
I like Clare Balding but was surprised when early on she said that it was a long way from Australia for the little horse (which eventually won) to have come. Surely she should have realised that the horse will never have set hoof in Australia?
