In England that wouldn't be a problem, because he hasn't affected the final result. In France, however if you touch another horse (whether the other horse has a chance at the time or not...... you're in trouble).

I'm just happy that i tipped up Youmzain and that Authorized got stuffed.

The French rules really annoy me. The course that Dylan took has not affected the result in any way at all. The horses he slightly knocked were all beaten at the time.

He hasn't affected the result, but he is likely to lose the race.

Pathetic rules. The best horse on the day has won, and it looks like he will denied the victory!

Well done to Youmzain who ran a cracker to finish 2nd, i always thought he could run well today.

Looks like he has been allowed to keep the race.


Good on the French Stewards.

So glad they didn't change the result. Although i like Youmzain, i would have been sick if he got the race.

Yes and yes.

Thought I'd have a panic attack.

Didn't think Dylan could get it done here and thought it set up for a longshot but i'm happy to be proven wrong.

Oh and a big congrats to Benbaun for his first G1!!!!! (... and for winning away from The Curragh).

Poor Moss.

Well, we were very close when we said there could be a big shock. I'm not sure if i'm more happy with Dylan and Youmzain or becuase Authorized finished nearly last (i'm cruel, i know).

Good luck to Darley, who have spent something like £15million on what looks to be a slow, soft ground loving stallion. Darley will be breeding 3mile hurdle winners in a couple of years

I couldn't see Moss during his race...... the camera angles are crap for the sprint over there.
