I wonder if the stipes will even notice the ride given to Pacaya by van Niekerk.

He would get a decade in Singapore for that. Here it won't get a mention.

He's always good for a brain freeze moment most meetings.

That was definitely no brain freeze, in fact quite the opposite.

Do yourself a favour and go look at the whole race again. Masterful ride

Get in there young Solomons
Guessing has never been widely acclaimed as a good gambling strategy.

It's a pity but Anton did everything right IMHO.
The left hand is not being overly used, not sure if the injury was in the left hand.

As for the winner, it was a masterful ride by jockey Louis M. He dropped the horse to the rail after the start and took the shortest way home.

The end result is Anton committed early to the centre of the track and his mount was gasping for the line late.
