    I know rails were moved but official distance of the race is 3m 1f 56 yards, was the race really extended by 250 yards ?
    Not sure just quoted him

    • Timeform Full result indicates Cotswold Chase 'Race Distance Adjustment:*+151 yds', which if correct means the race was 3m 1f and 207 yards , ie 83 yards short of GC distance 3m 2f 70 yards. Around 8 seconds to Usain Bolt but time enough for others to stay on up the hill past Frodon and Elegant Escape?

      • Seriously, if you think Frodon is even worth talking about in relation to this race you need to give up the game....

                Harsh to say Frodon is SHORT of stamina though?

                He's just beaten a Welsh National winner over 3 miles 1 and a bit?



                Ultimately you're right, Frodon isn't going to win the Gold Cup, so I'll just stop now

                • Looking for a good showing for Bellshill tomorrow.

                  Still plenty of 20-1 around for GC

                              Thanks, wasn't sure if there was another race after this really for GC.
