Mike De Kock lets rip at "incompetent" Gold Circle Panel

shogunnar has placed 3 times at group one level deserves his spot(tu)

Tellina won one leg of the Tripple Crown, ran second in the next and then fourth in the third and still does not get in ? A Gr2 win and two Gr 1 places as a three-year-old - Surely a horse that could improve and yet does not get a run?

unfortunately shdnt have run him in the daily news and gone the gothic route...mr hawaai u stick with this crop of 3yos i will look elsewhere

i agree totally with you Mr H
Does running one bad race put you out?
Feel for the owner of the horse
Gothic gets a run being a 1 time winner work riders maiden
The horse hasnt run for 2months
Was the horse assured a place in the july that he didnt need to run to show his well-being

This may sound ridiculous but if MDK did not run RC in the DN then he probably gets in.

Not sure I agree - RC beat Wild One and Love Struck (and Tellina) hands down in the DN - so why do they get in?

And even if one ignores Tellina's run in the DN, he was beaten fair and square by Wylie Hall and Gothic (and Wild One) in the Derby, so I agree with the 'panel' that he should not be there

Frodo, I recon it all started when Gold Circle decided not to publish a log on the 11th June relying purely on the 4th June. Rock Cocktail and Jet Belle were not seen on a "July Log" and therefore overlooked. Rock Cocktail definately deserved a place in the final field.

Gothic has won nothing besides a work riders maiden...
why does he get a run
He hasnt run for 2months
Which races are his prep runs?
Remember the horse has changed stables aswell
He is rated a 97and Tellina a 103...
Surely Tellina deserves a run

Maiden winners get into the July : - I have a two time winner, so I am well on par for Next Years July! Wooohooo!!!
