The mare is an overhyped windbag. She does not have the class or experience of Elegant Escape and most likely wont place.

When the big bad alpha ELEGANT ESCAPE eyeballs La Bague Au Roi at the start she will already know her fate.
She is just a little twig who can be snapped with ease by the heavyweight champion.Last edited by ELEGANTLY TASTED; 1 November 2019, 09:54 PM.

Loving the optimism ET. You may he right, EE could well win the GC but tomorrow is Le Bague's day I'm sorry to say. She will jump them all silly and run away with this prize. No disgrace losing to this year's KG winner though.

She isnt good enough to win this race or The King George. Her trainer isnt capable of transforming a good novice into a top class grade 1 chaser. If it was Willie Mullins I could say that perhaps she will show the great improvement needed to win here but Warren Greayrex? Absolutely not. Wont even place here.
Greatrex has already made the first big mistake by running her here rather than introducing her in the intermediate chase at Carlisle.Last edited by ELEGANTLY TASTED; 2 November 2019, 09:18 AM.

Thats an incredible bet really. Obviously no interest to me as Im win only at 9/2 and 15/2.
The way the market is underestimating Elegant Escape is incredible.
I expect the dairy funds will be coming out on course and the champ may yet still go off favourite.
This is a grade below the champs level. He will win.

The market is going to do a full circle. After correctly making Elegant Escape the original race favourite when the 11 declarations were made. The bookmaking industry used their media to trick the masses into thinking a no hoper could actually win this race.
Now the market is correcting, Ballyoptic is the correct 2nd favourite and soon THE LEGEND will be favourite as the mare returns to her original price of 5/1.
Sally Ann Grassick has seen THE LEGEND at wetherby this morning and states "he is looking a million dollars".
The Gold Cup is his.Last edited by ELEGANTLY TASTED; 2 November 2019, 10:46 AM.

Ballyoptic looks certain to become the latest race favourite.
He gets a massive 4lb from the legend and is race fit and in form for a trainer who targets the race. The team do not fear him though, we beat him in the RSA, The Kauto Star and the welsh national and we will beat him again in the Charlie Hall.
