Today was as fantastic as yesterday was dismal. What a horse Galopin is, far too many highlights to mention really as a racing enthusiast. Need to sleep for a few days. Thanks everyone for the views and banter, and moderators for all the work they put in.

What an astonishing duel between the two class horses in the race. BMG proves he’s top class, but GDC is something else. A Gold Cup for the ages, and for once the hype was justified!

Yep fantastic race, Hewick, Ahoy Senor, Conflated and Protektorat all big contributors, BMG was superb and GDC is something else!!
Loved it!!!
 
Certainly was. The only downside was Corbetts Cross coming into my reckoning late over the last few weeks, and then when I had him onside, that happened. Not enough any of my backed horses, even placing. A loss overall due as with most to what happened to most of our bets yesterday. So many anchor multiples went south yesterday, if they hadn't been hit enough after Gerri Colombe.
 
Side thought... Spanish Harlem was the biggest hype job of the festival wasn't he? Absolute garbage :highly_amused:

I thought he looked like a complete dodgepot in his run against three card brag

Soon as he was asked for an effort the head went in the air
