If you want to see everything thatโs wrong with the Benvenuto Cellini Derby decision then check out Wrist Art in the 6th race at Yarmouth, a horse actually affected by the actions in the stalls before they were let go. @BHAStewards have caused themselves a huge integrity issue
Wow thatโs a megastar performance from Nysos, gunned at the start, taken on so had to be taken back then still pulverised them. Rare quality for a dirt horse
Wonder if theyโre planning the Australian handicaps in 2 years for Christmas Day now?
Horse handles conditions, has solid form and got the run of the race. Simple as that.
A lot of horses had no chance after a couple of furlongs #EpsomDerby
I thought Benvenuto Cellini was a certainty today (and feel coolmore thought the same) on anything better than GS, but on this itโs hard to know if heโll even act on it.
Could be a lottery or someone absolutely steal it with clever track management. Weird feeling
Horrendous look this, horses all over the place on the track and beaten miles.
The derby is going to be a spectacle for all the wrong reasons, whoever handles it the best and ends up on the right part of the track wins
Two really good rides on the first two there given the set up. Thought Keane had done it perfectly on Legacy Link with the move turning in but Dylan was swinging on Thundering Home and boy did she
Could be two really good fillies or a really bad oaks, time will tell.
Not surprised that people are immediately trying to write revisionist history about the game today. Thatโs what idiots do
-Arsenal scored from open play. PSG could not
-PSG needed a penalty, conceded by Arsenalโs 3rd string RB, to score at all
-Outside of that penalty, PSG did not record a shot on target inside the box until the 117th minute
-PSG needed a penalty shootout to win the game
Casual fans will look at the possession and the shots, without understanding that Arsenal allowed PSG to have the ball and shoot it from non-threatening areas on purpose
At the end of the day, PSG deserved to win, because they stepped up when it mattered
But anybody suggesting that Arsenal didnโt play well, or didnโt execute their plan to perfection, is either lying to you for interactions, or they are genuinely incapable of analyzing the game that they just watched
It really is that simple, at the end of the day
For years, the running joke was โArsenal 4thโ
Then the running joke was โArsenal 2ndโ
Now theyโre making fun of Arsenal for winning the Premier League and losing in a Champions League final on pens to the reigning champs
Our rivalsโ biggest games this year were watching us ๐
The refereeing performance since half time was in keeping with UEFA not wanting three English teams winning but we shouldnโt have given them the chance to make their mark.
Weโll be back Iโm sure but it hurts
The boys didnโt deserve that. Brutal way to lose after a brilliant performance.
Missing the target twice in a shootout, heartbreaking. We didnโt have takers on there for a shootout when Gabriel is having to take No. 5 and Raya isnโt a penalty stopper
Brutal. But what a season
