    He couldn't have won any easier yesterday, was given a RPR of 150 and had a pair of 140 (OR) horses 20 and 40 lengths behind...
    You can’t take those beatings literally surely? Yes he won as he liked in the end but the 3 market leaders all made race ending injuries or didn’t finish due to injury.

    Thought he did well to win so smooth on such a tight course even accounting for what I said above. Hard horse for many to catch right it seems.

    • Aye Right is a solid ew bet for multiples or placepot but not so much a confident win bet I feel.

        Of course I'm not, if I did it would make Getaway Trump a 160+ horse which we know he isn't, but the fact he's won comfortably beating good (140) horses for me gives Happygolucky as much of a boost as the Cloth Cap victory does for Aye Right...

                I don't disagree but the good people at the Racing Post have yesterdays run at 150 and they know a hell of alot more than me...

                  The loose was in reference to him winning over a 2m trip, nothing personal at you just a general statement that a horse giving another horse a boost at a similar/same trip is above one at a totally different trip....

                  Plenty of ex Trump fans on here horse or el presidente no shame in that.

                    Think Cloth Cap franked Aye right a bit more.
                    Basically showing that at Newbury he was trying to give a stone in weight to a 160+ rated horse. As it turns out.

                    Whereas Trump is probably shit in comparison.

                    Not that any of it matters now anyway.

                    Money is down.

                    • More like Aye, yeah right.............................

                      My belief is unshakable.

                      • Winning this off 154 for Aye Right may prove to be an impossible task when the main 3 in the betting are off 147 and unexposed at the trip. He was hammered by Cloth Cap with not much fuss. I don't think him winning again is much of a boost to Aye Right as he didn't lay a glove on him.

                          No surprise really considering subsequent form

                          • I am reliably informed that One For The Team will now be taking up his entry here. They like him, and think he's a very well handicapped horse who'll really appreciate the better ground.

                            Not much experience on an undulating track, but definitely worth of consideration.

                              • Yes excellent news, I really like his place chances at the very least for this.
