Durbs .. exactly

Delpech had a wide draw as well and elected to ride his mount without going to the inside.

shot Craig your decision to stick with the youngster was justified and has paid off. really impressive ride and the horse was game as well.

Well done Craig. I had my doubts so just had a fun bet.

I watched the replay of the race 4 times and delpech raced three or four wide the whole way and was tracking Randolph who he made the horse to beat and he went past Randolph without to much fuss ..Randolph did absolutely nothing wrong

Well done Craig :woohoo:

i have no idea

Pirates racing in that position three wide what else could he do wrong?If he managed to find a better position in the running then delpech could not follow him and delpech would have been three wide and randolph maybe one off the rail and the horse would have a little more in the tank.Not saying that randolphs horse was better or anything but three wide is not the position to be in.Delpech might still have won but randolph could have come second.
