    He admitted that himself to be fair.

      Horse literally dragged him there he was travelling so well

      Not sure there was much he could've done other than hold him up last

      Hit 1.01 in running

      They will have to change tactics youd think from now on, looks like he needs to be dropped on the line

        Didn't really look that way before the triumph did he. Won by 10 lengths the time before and led Vauban from 4 out the time before that before battling with him after the last and winning. And Knight Salute also cruised into the race today. Not sure I'm having hitting the front too early as what's beaten him to be honest. Think we're trying to make excuses for a beaten fav there lads.

        Expecting a response that Davy said it.

          Is Paddy Brennan too honest? Surely anyone competitive would be arguing their case to try get the result? Done exact same at Cheltenham. Would the others be the same? Suppose fair play to him aswell if he feels there was no impact.

          Result changed anyway! Interesting.

            It gave me similar vibes to Abacadabras in the supreme!

              There seemed no reason for Knight Salute to flop in the Triumph given he had already won at Cheltenham earlier in the season so I abandoned him today.
              There seems to be a touch of the Harchibalds about Pied Piper!
              Odd the placings were changed given what Paddy Brennan told the Stewards - pity we don't hear what they say after the jockeys leave the room.
              I thought Knight Salute kind of deserved it since he was ahead bar the nod at the line.
              All the recent French imports flopped.

                Serious performance from Clan. Travelled like a dream, gave Cobden no choice really than to go on and was magic over his fences, bar the one Harry got wrong.

                  The change in headgear definitely worked

                    CDO the spring horse, That's twice he's run poorly in the Denman then comes here and wins well. Not quite sure why Conflated didn't win though - maybe found that final bend a bit too sharp and had too much to make up in the straight or that was the Festival effect.

                      • Taking a boost for Monmiral from that Clan win... Which you're right was impressive to be fair to him.

                        Also decided Jett wins by half the track and got involved in some lengths bets

                              • Zanahiyr up ok but I'm sure Epatante had that won - she's just unlucky to be racing in the same era as Honeysuckle! Pure Class!
