ELEGANT ESCAPE 2019/2020 - The Road To Gold Cup glory.

[ELEGANTLY TASTED]

Positive signs that Tizzard is about to run ino form. His 2 horses today 1st and 2nd.
Good news for The Legend as the Betfair chase approaches.

From the RP:
The assistant trainer also provided updates on Lostintranslation, who is set to tackle the Betfair Chase in a potential bid for the National Hunt triple crown, and Elegant Escape, who could also line-up at Haydock on November 23.

He said: "As things stand I couldn’t be happier with Lostintranslation two weeks ahead of the Betfair Chase. He ticked all the boxes up at Carlisle, had a nice blow and jumped brilliantly.

"We've had a long conversation about Elegant Escape joining him as he's recovered well from his second in the Charlie Hall, but the Ladbrokes Trophy is another option.

"The Betfair Chase would be another step up but we're committed as it stands, and if it's looking soft we might take our chance. If not we'll go for the Ladbrokes Trophy and then maybe another tilt at the Welsh National."

More comedy from the Coral sponsored Tizzards. Wont go anywhere near the welsh national though no doubt that article has helped the bookies take a few extra quid on The Champ for the welsh national. Free money.

EE is going to be rated around 170 after he wins the betfair chase.

[ELEGANTLY TASTED]

I doubt Lostintranslation will turn up for the betfair chase also.

[ELEGANTLY TASTED]

Its the king george after the betfair chase unfortunately. Npt a race I wanted him to go for but I doubt connections will be able to resist after he has won leg 1 of the triple crown.

[ELEGANTLY TASTED]

Notice how just 1 week ago EE was definitely going to the becher chase to give him experience for the grand national.

Just 1 day later after the interview they enter him in the betfair chase and then enter him in the king george. Aintree is no longer talked about but now they start talking of the welsh national.

Pair of rascals them 2. Playing the public who lap up there every word like a fiddle.

EE has always been a gold cup horse any other talk is just to help out the sponsors.

What photo has the Colin Tizzard racing facebook page (colins page) got as the profile picture and have had it for almost a year now?

Is it Lostintranslation?
Is it Native River?

Of course not its the tizzards holding the welsh national trophy won by the stable superstar and undisputed number 1 horse ELEGANT ESCAPE.

[ELEGANTLY TASTED]

Lostintranslation has a Ryanair festival entry as well as a gold cup entry. He started this season over 2m 4f rather than 3m.
This suggests they are not certain that Lostintranslation will stay the gold cup trip. After Elegant batters him to infinity and beyond in the betfair chase then they will be more likely to end up in Ryanair come March.

There are no Festival entries yet. The possible entries are just the guesses of some muppet at the Racing Post.

[ELEGANTLY TASTED]

I assumed with the possible entries that the trainer must have indicated to the rp that it was possible they may go. So am surprised its based purely on guesses though the rp do employ clowns.

Still very possible he may end up in the ryan air imo if he gets destroyed in the betfair chase which I expect him to if he turns up.

The Poem of Haydock

They all lined up for The Betfair Chase
The first big grade 1 to find out the golden ace

The media pushed Lostintranslation and Bristol De Mai
But it turned out this was pie in the sky

The favourite looks gone, no longer the pistol
Aintree Grand National now more suited to Bristol

The best in the nation is not lostintranslation
They got sucked in again they feel no elation

Paul Nicholls Frodon beat us once
If you think ge beats us again then you are the dunce

Ballyoptic you will be made to pay
Off level weights at home you should stay

If you are a brave enough horse altior
Then turn up at Haydock and the team will show your career the door

The rest of the field? You're having a laugh
The beating you get from the Legend, if Tennis think Steffi Graf

The Champ stretches out he's 20 lengths clear
All who doubted The Legend are shaking with fear
Here comes the line and the gaps 28
It was Elegant Escape who proved he is the great



1st TRIPLE CROWN WINNER
SINCE KAUTO STAR

1st HORSE TO EVER WIN THE KAUTO STAR TROPHY

GREATEST OF ALL TIME
THE LEGEND

ELEGANT ESCAPE

The rest of the field? You're having a laugh
The beating you get from the Legend, if Tennis think Steffi Graf




Elegant Escape, the Steffi Graf of the equine world.




A couple too many words in a few of the second lines...

B+

[ELEGANTLY TASTED]

I think A- would have been a fairer assessment.

I think A- would have been a fairer assessment.

You don't get to mark your own work though.

B

For arguing.

[ELEGANTLY TASTED]

Entriee out for the Becher Chase and surprise surprise Elegant Escape is not in the race.
The reason being he isnt going anywhere near a national.

Shame on you Joe Tizzard for your interview after the charlie hall chase when you told the sheeple this race was the target when the champ has always been Gold Cup bound.
