Guest CrossCodes Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Once again Tim showed why he isn't a big race driver with his drive in the Oaks, handing up to a Chmiel trained and driven horse was always going to end in disaster and ended up 5 back the fence and game over, whereas the other Purdon horses were up on the speed and got the trifecta. Hes been given a lot of easy drives and wins over the last month or so, but it seems when it comes down to it he just doesn't have the balls needed to front up in the big ones. As an aside, how impressive was the Ozzy filly, dealt to Elle Mac and co and should only improve with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2 that finished first + second was always going to end up lead , trail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A decent draw at Cambridge and running like she did last night will have the rest chasing a ghost, although having said that it will be normal transmission as she is in the Purdon barn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
