Brilliant ride delighted for him

He was lucky that jocky with the extended elbow was closing😂

agree 100% very please for Luke and Mark

It's a great story all round

Klopp

I was on her big time. If i hadn't dithered i would have got better than the 7/1 i took a week ago. A big winner is a big winner though. Well done to all connections.

A minute early I think…the counting that is🐳

I had a moderate wager on her and Luxembourg Coco. When they come in you always wished you had piled in.

At that moment she looked like Sea Bird.

@@rivergold4835 To be in profit after placing your bet is what it's all about. I was tempted with the 14s and 12s which you could get for Alpinista for the Arc in the early part of this season but decided to wait a while.

absolutely!

We had a horse with Sir Mark & what you see on the tv is exactly what you get at home. A true gentleman & superb team around him. Absolutely buzzing for all involved well done 👏👏👏👏👏

Backed 2nd Horse....but yes AWESOME Win....good track..heavy track 🏋‍♂️🏆🏆🏆

Agreed. I backed him and was very happy with the run.

When you have Broome in the field as last year, its almost guaranteed there be decent enough pace, which set up nicely for Torquator Tasso last year and this year. Just this year Alpinista has flown and as usual Morris timed it well.

@@Chief_Brody Her?

She doesn't do too much when she hits the front, Luke rode her beautifully.

Great ride. But cant always be a blue print as you need the horse to finish. Just imagine if something did finish incredibly to beat her? Look never happened and thankfully as I collected. We have seen a 2 year old and a 3 year old break their leg her recently. Its bloody nerve racking.

@@justgrand3429 Doesn't do much in front? I don't think that relates to a Group 1 in the mud. She was empty.

@@Dwayndibb She did what mattered.

From the off, was in third gear till last hundreds yard and did just enough to win.

Yes why we got 5s ill never no.

It made sense to back her and Torqatto tasso like me 😂

This is why you should always take stats with a pinch of salt. No 5 year old mare had won the race in a century but how many 5 year old mares were in the form of their career when they ran in the race? Enable for one was finished.

@@Chief_Brody I honestly never take stats seriously, I saw it a few years back when the so called stat experts were saying that no horse beaten in the Dante had ever won the Derby, then Workforce made those stats look rather meaningless, the longer the stat the better the chance of it being broken.

@@Chief_Brody There's a first time for everything.

Will be better than Frankel.

@@HopeYourHavingFun Maybe better than Pegasus.

It's Miss Rausing. She has never married.

I forgot how close that race was

One of the very best is Bartlett....

How soon we forget - that he fucked up the call of this year's King's Stand with the infamous, "Nature Stripe". That's going to haunt him forever!

@@peterkemp1973 Typed the Aussie Jackass. A race that will live in the memory of Aussies but no one else. Alpinista's victory in this years Arc will live for a very long time in the memory, particularly for those who backed her. Who the hell remembers sprint races?

@@peterkemp1973 Calling the wrong horse as the winner is what might "haunt" a commentator. Calling Nature Strip "Nature Stripe" most definitely wouldn't "haunt" any commentator. Ian Bartlett is simply one of the best around at his job.

@@alwaysfair4991 You actually wrote something this stupid for others to read? I'm impressed by your candor in that you willingly flaunt such stunning ignorance and absurd stereotyping. The British TV pundits stated that it was one of the highlights of the Ascot meeting while others claimed that Nature Strip's victory was more impressive than Baaeed's! I respect the pundits' verdict than your tripe. You choose to denigrate sprint races, but we all know that this response is an amalgam of jealousy, stupidity and ignorance. You've no good sprinters at the moment and this fact was painfully exposed in the Kings' Stand. You might have Alzheimer's and you could have written this drivel while pissed - or probably both! I'm not totally confident that you can read with some modicum of proficiency but please check the actual records of our sprinters in England since 2003. They demonstrate that you lack facts and therefore justifiably expose yourself to legitimate chastisement.

Your my type of horse racing fan. 👍

Alpinista 2 Torquator Tasso 0

@ J P She certainly is.

Most people were saying titleholder😂absolute idiots

Long way to go to get near his dad and grandad

Sea the stars?

@@Elliot-T It's good to see two great horses become great stallions, rather like Nijinsky and my all time favourite Mill Reef.

@@rodneymckee8431 haha hes different gravy his record is way in front

@@colintipton1740 good to heir from you Colin been a while you and must be having a good time together it's not like anyone else does with you 2. Has Frankel sired more classic winners than them 2 no is the answer as El gran senior said shaping up to be 1 of the best but until he sires more he's not the best plain and simple surely not even you are not that stupid to understand that

In that going NO HORSE was disgraced.

Did you back her?

@@rivergold4835 No I rarely have a bet

@@rivergold4835 Titleholder no chance once there was more rain on Sunday Too wet I wouldn’t give up on him Should have run in the KG VI

@@elgransenor1472 It's very difficult for a horse to make all the running and win the Arc, doubly so on that ground. The horse that really surprised me was Vadeni. I just didn't see him as a danger to my selection Alpanista. I thought on that ground he would run out of gas around 2 furlongs out. You could say i have finally become a fan of his. I hope the Aga keeps him in training as a 4 year old.

Dont agree with u..if good enough he would of won

That's your losing betting slip talking. Best horse won last year, this year the English Queen won.

@@alwaysfair4991 didn’t bet in the race. Great race. I’m glad alpinista won

Dettori proved with his ride on Golden Horn, how he can make a bad draw a benefit

@@anotherblonde look at dancing brave..the outside draw

Well, I think Baaeed would been ok with the ground. Baaeed never been asked for more than what he needed to do on the day, though at times needs few tap to lift him up as he just relaxes or shows laziness, perhaps thinking that's all he needs to do. He has a big engine that to this day never needed to use it in full. Regardless, Alpinista certainly very underestimated Mare!

It was the right decision to pull him out.

@@the_observinganalyst4085 why are you talking about baeed ?

The word if doesn’t pay the bills.

Torquator Tasso got alongside Vadeni with about 50 yards to go but could not get pass Vadeni. I could not see TT getting to Alphanista if there was another 100 yards. She was always doing enough to win.

Probably not Morris would have held onto Alpanista for another 100 yards and the result would have been exactly the same

Torquator Tasso overcame a tricky draw to come flying at the end for a share of the spoils. Brilliant ride from Frankie.

Morris timed Alpinista's final move perfectly. If not, yes, Valdeni or Tasso might've prevailed.

Back to Wolverhampton for him now.. Can't stand him bump and bounce

@@Kevjohno lol sometimes I think the bump and bounce actually slows a horse down doesn’t seem in Rhythm with the horses movement

@@poeticgemini6563 so do I I can't see how it helps..bouncing and flailing way like that 😂

agree 100% so please for Luke 1 of these jockeys who goes to Wolverhampton for a class 6 and he deserves the big stage

He's a grafter

Are you kidding...,one of best horses ever whaaaaa

Yes I would say "One of toughest Mares of all time". I backed her myself too!! 💪💪 Reason being she won at 5 so I call toughest Mare. I mean enable could have won this 3 times with more luck. Note I'm not a massive Dettori fan and he got older.

@@Dwayndibb that was a poor arc am 50 ive some great horses win it. You think it would beat dancing brave 😂

She's a wonderful mare but 1 of the greatest your having a laugh. She wouldn't get near the likes of Sea the stars. Dancing brave. Treve. Enable. Zarkava. Hurricane run Workforce? I very much doubt it

@@rodneymckee8431 Exactly 👍. Just read it again.. One of the greatest race horses EVER haaaaaaa

Yes I backed Alpinista as the 1m4f Colts were just not in her class. I knew she was best mare when she won the race in Grand Prix saint Cloud. But sad Luxembourg out until next Season. He would need a very good day to catch her obviously. Vadeni was beaten by both in different races and his fairly special too!

Actually it was interesting to watch the distance the mare put between herself and Valdeni when the jockey asked her to sprint. That was what won’t her the race. As the old saying goes “if my granny had bxxxs she’d be my granddad “. Who can tell what would have happened in better conditions? Would Frankie’s horse have been as effective even with a better draw? Would Alpanista have skipped away even further and maintained that lead? We shall never know; only that today she was the best, but that is what makes racing so wonderful, the unknown for “next time”. I admit to be overjoyed that she won, a great result.

@@anthonya7169 Certainly it was her day in which the conditions maximize her brave and versatile feature. Through my decades assessing racing, I just wanted to point out different horses have different pros and cons even for a champion and so different pacing, racecourse, conditions and positioning would make the result different. That's racing. I Just love to see racing star with great turn of foot which is rare even for a decent Gp one horses on a turf mile and half. The last one that I can remember is already Peintre Celebre his acceleration is pure S grade.

Very nicely put.

Nice double with platinum queen thank you very much,

I'm amazed how well Vadeni ran on this ground. I thought he would be closer to last than first.

@@rivergold4835 I was more worried about the trip 1m4f. Might be retired now for breeding after winning french derby and eclipse👍

@@MB-zm8lc I wouldn't be surprised to see them give him a chance in the champion depending on how he comes out of the race,

@@MB-zm8lc They might retire him. His highness the Aga Khan is in the home straight, why not keep him in training as a 4 year old?. He should enjoy what years he has left watching outstanding racehorses on the track.

@@nightowl7459 champion might be a bit soon, what about breeders cup turf? Get better ground there and no baaeed!

Torquato Tasso very nearly got there..Excellent race.

@@scottjones5455 Fully agree, excellent performance, especially with the 18th, very proud!❤

@@scottjones5455 He ran a great race.

Vadeni ran a fantastic race.

She beat Tuesday comfortably. The Yorkshire Oaks was a slow and messy race.

Think he was going for place money at best just remember it costs the owners money to supplement it so if they take it out that's money wasted so they probably wanted place money at best

Stayed on well, did not finish like a train.

@@countbelalucozade another 50yds he wouldve won the race ..lie down will ya

@@irlgman3566 That's your losing betting slip talking. Better luck next year.

Baaeed will still be voted Horse of the Year even if he loses in the Champion Stakes , which of course is his for the taking , cant see Adayar beating it over a trip too short for him

@@44sledge ok but alpinista just won her 8th in a row including 5 group 1s and she just won a race where baaeed ducked...she still has a chance imo

@@kourtlandperry1698 ​ Alpinista wins 3 Group 1's this year , Baaeed already won 4 Group 1's ,. maybe wrong , but I am sure at tha Cartier Awards , They will make Baaeed Horse of the Year . Wont be the only award he wins , Top Miler as well .

@@44sledge she also won 2 group 1s last year coming into this year...

Baaeed is in a different parish to Alpinista. Horse of the year though is a toss up between Flightline and Baaeed.

I knew that Luxembourg got lucky against the 2nd today last time out and would have no chance this time around.

@@MrHuPow I said on Twitter many times false Fav bookies horse. I’m hearing he might have got injured not sure. Aidan trained him for Ireland, vadeni wasn’t fit that day. Tasso very unlucky best horse in race.

never learn

@Colin Tipton I'm missing them telling me how great O'Brien is, they come from nowhere when he has a big will and mysteriously disappear when he has a big loss.

@@nightowl7459 sir Mark has won more Arcs than Aiden genius O’Brien!

@@skrabellegend2768 If you are going by percentage? I think this is only Prescott's second Arc runner.

@@nightowl7459 Their keyboards are soaked in tears.

@@Funeeman 😂🤣

Your having a laugh She's a top horse in her own right that's it

She

@@katiebaby60 alright calm down.

Analyse the finish again Morris wasn't connecting with half of them he was galvanizing the mare by waving the stick at her, it doesn't look great but not every jockey can be as aesthetically pleasing on the eye as L.Dettori, Luke's style of riding makes it look worse than it actually is, he has ridden over 1000 races per season over the last 9-10 years and has only suffered 2 whip suspensions in that time, again I shall say his all action style makes it look visually a lot worse than it actually is.

@@johncook5596 nonsense. He stood upright in the saddle and brought the whip down as hard as he could. What race are you watching? If you want to wave the stick at a horse then that is the least effective way of doing it. He did the same thing in the Yorkshire Oaks. I'm not talking aethestics here.

@@johncook5596 Absolutely correct John.

Thunderous? 😂 😂 😂 😂

This is what I was looking for, the first Ryan Moore criticism. However, to be honest, it wasn't a great ride. I am not sure Luxembourg was going to win no matter what tactics were used.

I doubt Luxembourg had much of a chance anyway.

Never considered him as a potential winner.

Must of lost did u

Whats new lol.

Ying yang u need ur head examining
