I've watched these video about 12 times now since last night! And I love it! ❤️ Crowley timed that well & the 🐎 responded & came home like a train. Finishes like this are why I love this sport. ❤️
I backed this horse today not only because he stays, but Jim is a top jockey as he proved, but have to say such a brave horse and well done Jim! Thank you both!!!
Nice run by See The Fire beaten less than 3 lengths running on ... should have an interesting year next year ... makes you wonder what Kalpana would have done in this field ... I'm thinking the same as she did earlier ... Win
Wonderful race! Calandagan is still my boy. Missed the break and definitely didn’t have the best trip or his usual kick, but the winner ran a great race. I have a feeling that the ground on the inside was a bit deep. Congrats to anyone that had the winning ticket!
@@Thomas-vg8ovAgreed, and messy is the right word. Calandagan is probably the best Group 1 horse I’ve seen that consistently races that hasn’t actually won a Group 1. Hopefully, they’ll give him a nice rest and come back strong next year. Maybe third try will be the charm.
@@silvereyedstacker1842 I wouldn't put it past them to try a Breeders Cup turf with him, ssuming that he's entered? I actually think that because he's had a bit of a lay off it might just have effected him a little? It would be a shame if he was destined to never win a top prize, hopefully that won't be the case and it can happen soon. 🤞
@@Thomas-vg8ovHe’s listed as possible for it, but I hope he won’t go after today. It’s 1m4f and a quick turn around. Everyone was trying to get off the rail today and he was stuck on it almost all the way around. I bet he’s exhausted from running on that alone, not to mention the other trouble. As hard and fast as they ran in the Juddemonte, I think they made the right decision not to run him back quickly. I also think this was the right spot for him and that he ran great. Tried his heart out. Just wasn’t his day. I think extremely highly of him and he’s a gelding, so I’m hoping the connections don’t feel the pressure or the rush. He has a real chance to be the #1 middle distance turf horse in the world next year. I could be wrong, but I don’t think he has a chance to win the BC turf for the reasons stated above. If he were well rested, I’d say heck yeah! I think they’ll make the best decision for him though because they’ve been taking their time and choosing his spots carefully so far.
@@Thomas-vg8ov He’s listed as possible, but he has the be exhausted after today’s run and the BC turf is longer and a quick turn around. He was on the deepest part of the track all the way around today. After watching the replays from today, everyone was trying to get off the rail, but he had no choice. He ran great and tried his heart out. They’ve done right by him so far, and I hope they don’t risk it. Maybe I’m wrong, but I think it’s asking too much and that he won’t run well if he were to go.
@@johnnyboy6608 he just got beat 6 lengths in a French group 2 and was all out with a British handicapper. It was a freak result where he’s obviously just loved the ground and race setup on the day. Getting blocked in has aided his finishing kick
What a ride.. The jockey earned every penny of his wages. And then some.. Way over priced at 40-1, But I'm not complaining. I had £1.80 on.. Happy days..
Well done Neil!👏👏👏 That’s one hell of a shout considering Calandagans hype and past performances, are you getting tips from your old uncle Aidan I wonder??🤔
I think Economics should be retired now. He obviously puts so much into his racing that it's causing him serious harm. The same thing happened Best Mate although he was much older.
Last week Alphonse Le Grande was controversially disqualified from winning the Cesarewith for breaching the whip rules. A week later, Anamat wins the most valuable race on Champions day - barging Economics out the way in the process, and not a word by the stewards. It's considered cheating, if you use your whip, 4 strokes above the whip limit. But why not careless riding? Had Jim Crowley taken a pull to prevent interfering with Economics - its fair to say, it would have impeded his late flourish, and prevented him from winning. Jim Crowley's ride is considered fair, and within the rules of racing. When clearly in pursuit of winning a valuable race, he is no less guilty, than Jamie Powell the 3lb claimer disqualified from winning the Ceserawiitch.
@TheKnowledge I wasn't making a case, in support if Economics being unlucky. He palpably got exposed. The main thrust of my point was. Jim Crowley, under a forceful ride, bumped into Economics. Was his ride - win the race by any means necessary, even if infraction of the rules.? I think so, yet neither horse or jockey was reprimanded by the stewards.
@TheKnowledge1 Don't tell us you're in Florida when you're still posting on here after your big public announcement that you would abstain whilst you were on holiday. Like Sue said you're probably at Blackpool Lido...Florida indeed Pinocchio 🤣
i woulda had £3 at 33s to win 100, but i got an email from the Racing Post this morning offering 5 £10 bets if you opened an account and invested £10 with Skybet. So I had 2 horses in each of the 3 big races, and picked up £330. Is it churlish that I was annoyed not to get paid out at the 40/1 SP?
never liked los Angeles for this race just too short distance too fastly ran too quick but he ran well enough got trapped up on the run in and just lost his stride but could see pace never suited him at this distance i think he'd be better at 1m6f than 1m1f. 1m4f being preferred. Really nice race by Anmatt and Royal Rhyme.
@@thecritic81 champion trainer is awarded by prize money. Not by wins. Prize money is so poor in England that if you win the Epsom derby and pick up some prize money here and there you'll be champion trainer.
@@sionrouge1697I think he's gone past the eight million pounds mark in prize money, but I do agree that it's a pretty meaningless title, to me a champion trainer is usually just some whose luck enough to have a three or more group one horse in their stable.
@@Thomas-vg8ov His breeding stock is a reflection of what they have done for nearly 60 years. Horses bred to peak during the classics and fizzle out in early October. There's the occasional Arc winner but not often.
Economics was never going well, in the straight he got bit boxed in , after that He was wandering around all over the place obviously something wrong with him. It was an exciting race, but the winner flew through from so far back, how on earth was he 40/1??
What a mess… good luck to the winner, I actually rate French form more than most punters seem to, but I wish they ran Champions Day at Newmarket not Ascot, where the heavy autumn going ruins things every year. I like watching hurdling but I prefer hurdlers on the hurdling track, no way could we see the best race today.
@@eliotdavey4927 ..What a nonsense & irrelevant comment. Are you that desperate to knock City of Troy..🙄..You do realise that Anmaat is a six year old group one winner don’t you, hence the weight factor..🙄
@@eliotdavey4927 City of Troy’s form definitely held today. He not only beat Calandagan by more, but Calandagan also had a much better trip in Juddemonte. As a fan of Calandagan, that trip today was frustrating. He ran great considering. He was on the inside rail all the way around on a day that everyone was trying to get off of it. In addition to that, he completely missed the break and got bottled up and knocked around. If he gets beaten with a better trip, then I’ll reevaluate, but this was a messy race for several horses.
@@silvereyedstacker1842 Not forgetting caladagan probably preferred the quick ground at York the juddmonte form is 🔥 not sure what everyone's looking at tbh
Anmaat never had to switch leads and ran straight through a gap that calandagan opened up after changing leads multiple times to try and find the gap. Calandagan clearly the best. Everyone on here claiming to have had the mortgage on Anmaat because he’s clearly the best horse are delusional 😅😂
He ran a great race considering he was slow out of the stalls and had to make up the ground. He was the best horse in the race to finish 2nd in that ground from last position on that ground. Terrific horse
@@TheKnowledge1 Charyn was never going to get beaten because of the simple fact he was the best horse in the race, once again, nothing to do with the Jockey and nothing to do with him being French and allegedly being weak in a finish which you have no evidence to back up that ridiculous claim.
Calandagan should have hosed up but it just wasn't his day. Economics came with a winning run but bled, so it wasn't his true running. I still believe he's the best horse. Anmaat was over-looked after he bounced at Longchamp but still you could run this race 10 times and he would only win once. Congrats to him and his team! 😊
Race was never going to suit Calandagan. You don’t want to be held up on the rail round Ascot on soft. Suits being prominent. That’s what got Baaeed beat last year
@@TheKnowledge1 Yeah that's true and no one in the previews even paid attention to the draw and the type of difficulty you can get in at Ascot. It will be the same if they decide to go to the Breeders Cup. Auguste Rodin got a dream run on the rail but it's rare as rocking-horse sh*t.
@@JodyForbes Anmaat was always racing in the perfect position one off the rail not on the dead ground inside getting all the kickback. It’s why Baaeed lost last year very simple to understand if you know racing. End of the day Anmaat was the best horse in the race on the day somehow I don’t know how as it’s a donkey. But Calandagan is the best horse in the race easily.
@@TheKnowledge1 Rubbish. The far side is the far side regardless. Kyprios jockey was quite happy to take him down into it as was the jockey on Charyn. Both won. It's very said when your making excuses on a bi annual basis. Baaeed was beaten on his merits 2 years ago (not last year ) as well. If Calandagan was the best horse in the race, then he'd be winning it. He very clearly didn't. The race can never be run faster than the fastest horse can run it.
Yeah and yet they will be queuing up to back city of Troy next week @3/1 lol. Should be double figures trying to win that race on it’s first race on dirt
Economics was lucky to beat Auguste Rudin, both horses had a bad race but Auguste had the worst ride ever as the horse was really turned on, Ryan had a bad week as what happens

The best horse on heavy ground won.
Obviously Calandagan should have won but it just wasn't his day.

Weak French jockeys for you never gonna win up the rail
Thank you for putting the name of the winner in the title because I really didn't want to watch this race without already knowing the winner.
I backed this horse today not only because he stays, but Jim is a top jockey as he proved, but have to say such a brave horse and well done Jim! Thank you both!!!
So do I because racing is so bent and it was a beaten favourite last time out.
Because he stays? What horse in that race hasn’t won at the trip? It’s a donkey I backed it at Haydock and it was all out against Certain Lad 😷
Well done for keeping the faith. I'm a big fan of Jim Crowley but I didn't back the winner. I had Royal Rhyme Top 3 Finish so still a nice profit.
@@TheKnowledge1when was that?
@@John-ed2wj a few months ago. Terrible performance. Should’ve been bigger than 40/1 today
The fact Anmaat was cantering and in front of calandagan yet the french horse got first run just shows how bad a ride it was from jim crowley.
Crowley always seem to find a way to get in trouble on Shadwell horses. It's hardly ever smooth sailing.
Had a fiver on, lovely race, thought he had been boxed in and then came from now where 🎉
He was 40/1 🎉 , I knew Jim Crowley will make it happen💪
Nice run by See The Fire beaten less than 3 lengths running on ... should have an interesting year next year ... makes you wonder what Kalpana would have done in this field ... I'm thinking the same as she did earlier ... Win

Most unsurprising 40-1 shot winner I’ve ever seen

When does it run?
What a Finish from Jim😊
MESSY RACE ? BUT STILL A EXCELLENT RIDE & WIN 🏇 💯 👍
