I'd Crispy Cat on this, and Walbank where it matters. I'm bitter as fuck 

😂

[oldfordie]

My horse not involved in the Stewards inquiry but the UK system on judging interference pisses me off. so the winner never improved his position, what about all the other horses who would have gained a higher placing.
Sweating on a big placepot one day, last selection and another horse went 10 l clear inside final furlong. cert to be placed then the other horse started to hang and forced the jockey of my horse to stand up and pull the horse to a walk. other horses took 2nd+3rd in. hit the roof when ATR commenters argued best horse won. be a travesty if the Stewards throw this out as he deserved to win. wtf,  other horses deserved to be placed as well. if a winner stops them from being placed and they should be demoted to a lower placing.
The Riddler should have been thrown out, the 4th horse may well of got 3rd, the placing of the 2nd 3rd and 4th would have been different except for the winners interferance.

Not much consolation for the punters.

Don’t think there’s a perfect outcome in this race as Crispy Cat was most impacted but not sure he’d have won, but he’d have beaten Walbank who would have been given the race

[duvva 💅]

I’ve gone for Mojo Star in the comp, but would be amazing if Stradivarius could win a fourth Gold Cup here

[Robinred]

I’ve always thought Dettori was a superior jock to Ryan Moore, but that was an awful ride from him, not for the first time this meeting.

[Barneylfc∗]

Brilliant race that

Unbelievably poor ride. How the fuck do you not get space for a leading contender in a 2.5 mile race?

Close but am not sure if Crispy Cat would have got 3rd. winner definitely stopped Crispy cats run but Brave Nation was hammered by the winner and just got touched off for 3rdby Crispy Cat. anyway my point is it's not all about the best horse should keep the race as if that's all that matters.

There in lies the issue really, we’ve all got a view on what would have happened but impossible to tell, other than the winner would probably have won anyway.

Well done to Mag Hull who was the only one who found that winner

Mid to low draw certainly seems to be the place to be in these races so far. Watch them over water that side tonight now

[BoRed]

Had enough of second places for one day. Two by a head, one by half a length.

Having said that, I'd rather have two more second places in the remaining races than nothing at all.

That's debatable for the race today, it's the logic/criteria the judges use thats wrong. same thing happened again today, Stewards came out and explained their decision. they are satisfied the winner would have won anyway despite the interference. same with ITV. best horse won. imo they should be looking to see if the interference cost any horse a place which wasn't a part of the judgement.

Nice performance from Claymore, wasn’t sure he’d want that ground

Frankie is a useless bastard. Up about £1200 if that c*nt wins

Don’t think that’s the criteria anywhere other than the USA (and Canada apparently) now. The Ridler won nearly two lengths, if he’d run straight you’d have to think it would have been to his benefit, so while others might not have been impacted they’d have had more ground to make up still. I get while it feels wrong that others were impacted but you chuck the winner out and place it fourth you still don’t get the right winner as the second probably gets beaten by the third and possibly the fourth.

Ouch. Not sure Frankie had much to do with it though, horse just wasn’t good enough.

Think his ride on Stradivarius was worse

[Buck Pete]

El Frank the only person who didn't pick that odds on favourite.

However, he picked an Also Ran.

Not 100% about the scoring there Pete

Thought Marquand had a mare there on the Fav

Don’t think anyone had any of the first four

Arms made of spaghetti these days. Wouldn’t back him with counterfeit money in a driving finish.

  logic!

Another mare from me today. Thankfully my money went elsewhere, including taking The Ridler in the opener. 
I've annoyed myself by having my selections and changing them at the last minute this week. I would have had a hell of a lot more points in the bag if I'd just kept with what I had written down. Magical Lagoon is gonna haunt me for a while, I backed out of that and have followed her since her second race. I even wrote her in on here before changing at the very last second

Todays joint top scorers with 65 are BoRed and Zamaguire who both bring themselves into a decent position to have a go at the leaders tomorrow.

Bo was only let down on the last race for a full RAWK placepot.  He did get the first 6 races actual placepot up though and would have got about £90 back from a fiver stake if he done it.

At the top, Robbie fights back again to draw level with Gerry.  This is turning into a good old battle between past tipster champs.

Still in 3rd, Duvva falls back ever so slightly but more than capable of winning this. 

Silent assassin Stephen is in 4th place lurking.,  Do not rule him out.
