I like your new kid on the block as a horse a lot more potential wise.

All horses mature at different speeds, rates, ages. Some will improve early in their career some are slow burners.
Obviously you fancy LOSTINTRANSLATION. Its an overhyped media type that is vastly underpriced. A punter of your profile wouldnt fancy anything else.Last edited by ELEGANTLY TASTED; 3 December 2019, 09:45 AM.

No i don't necessarily think that, you're the one that brought ABP into it and compared their ratings. Both horses are not the same in anyway. The rating ABP won a GC off means little to EE.

Tom Segal is long past his sell by date and needs to retire.
Elegant Escape is a superb jumper of a fence?
I think he jumped every fence perfectly on Saturday though Cobden had him so wide and so far back it was hard to see him clearly at times as far as I could see he jumped like a stag.
Jacks opinion holds more weight than Tom Segals.
Wont go anywhere near the national.

Elegant Escape cant jump so what he needs to do is become the highest rated welsh national winner of all time then run in a race where you need to jump 30 fences off a mark in the 170s beating the greatest Natuonal Horse in 50 years in the process.
Ita just embarraasing to read from Tom. He cant jump so what he needs to do is go to the ultimate jumping test from 171+ and he can give the best national horse since red rum a race???Last edited by ELEGANTLY TASTED; 3 December 2019, 11:37 AM.

This man is I would assume is paid a very good salary to write in the racing post.
He is saying that Elegant Escape isnt a good jumper then tips him up for the Welsh and English grand national the two biggest jumping tests going.
The bookmakers have got to him. Must be on the payroll these days. Once upon a time many moons ago this man actually made sense.
Rule 1 of grand national - A horse who is a good jumper. Its the first thing you look for.
This isnt even addressing the fact that Elegant Escape is actually an excellent jumper.
There are people out there who will actually listen to what this man says.The guys a disgrace.
