Verry Elleegant

You may have read but it appears you didn’t understand. It made perfect sense. He was using those retired horses as examples of how similarly rated horses performed in the past. As an example of how Verry Elleegant could expect to perform given the performances she has run to. The profile of the race suggests her ratings are not good enough to win except in a very average year. 

I understand but don’t agree. The ratings clearly show she is a live chance

To throw a blanket rating Over the race on past runners is dumb. The current batch of horses are there for all to see. No need 5o pontificate on how strong it may be

The ratings are there for you to see

We’ve seen from the other threads that you participate in that your idea of “behind” is a long way from reality.

What is Verry Elleegant’s rating compared to other possible starters?

If ratings have her miles of Arc ability than the ratings are a load of crap.

Now go and Have a look at the betting market and relate that to my comments re the ratings

Why would you look at the runs from a few years back with a different trainer and when she was less mature. In the last 18 months she hasn't put a foot wrong other than the J Mac brain fade. That's all you need to look at. 

She is doing now what she was doing 2 years ago , are you that blind ? at times when things go against her she makes good jockeys look bad and good horses look better , spec savers need you PMD. 
 

Verry Elleegant – Began awkwardly and shortly after the start was bumped on the hindquarter by Addeybb which shifted out. K McEvoy rider of Dalasan pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding in that approaching the 1600m he permitted his mount to shift in when not clear of Verry Elleegant which resulted in Verry Elleegant losing its running and having to be steadied. K McEvoy's licence to ride in races was suspended for a period to commence on Monday 26 April 2021 and to expire on Wednesday 5 May 2021 on which day he may ride. After being crossed by Dalasan Verry Elleegant continued to overrace badly and refused to settle and making the first turn after being crossed by Mo'Unga shifted out resulting in Verry Elleegant and Addeybb making contact for a number of strides near the 1500m. Stewards determined that T Marquand rider of Addeybb had ridden within the confines of the rules and that he endeavoured to maintain his position outside of Mo'Unga and that the racing manners of Verry Elleegant was the principle reason of the contact between the two runners.

PMD has never backed a horse that has been beaten on its merits.

but but but the jockey rode it bad!
