    Totally unsuitable ground? I thought it was soft?
    Weather:

    Good/Soft on both old & new all over..

    Dry overnight. Friday looks set to remain largely overcast with a chance of showers this morning, followed by another breezy
    afternoon. Temperatures of around 11C.

    This will make me change my bets, as I was going to have river & pic, both drifting badly with the going update

      • I think this drying ground will count against Elegant Escape.

        Speed merchants will do him.

              Can someone just tell Nico to go from the front and burn them all off one by one? That is his most dangerous attribute i feel and i just want them to try it again regardless of the wandering in the late stages!

                If I KNEW he was going to get a ride like he did back in the RSA or Kauto Star he'd actually be hugely interesting.

                I had £40 free on in April at 8/1 hahaha - rubbish.

                  • Even though I suggested he had the speed for two miles last year I have ended up adding Kemboy.

                    The Irish Gold Cup wasn't a huge test of stamina but even so I think he produced what looked visually to be the most impressive performance of any this field this season.

                    The drying ground should help and I really hope they ride him as if he is going to stay. That should also help his jumping.

                    • The ground is going to be horrible tacky sticky very testing. It may not be soft but it will be very tacky. It's going to take a fighter not a bridle merchant to win today. Native river will ensure it's a full test of stamina.
