The first horse that came to mind when I saw this performance was Peintre Celebre, not that Economics is anywhere near his level yet but the power and the way he gallops reminded me of the great horse and to my astonishment, upon checking his pedigree, he's actually a grandson of his! Amazing! 😁
Economics has a real good engine but surely a mile and a half is his trip. Let's hope Haggas doesn't become over protective of the horse and limit opportunities for him to reach his potential and please and amaze his fans.
Was you watching a different race. There is no way that horse was on the pace in fact he only fully started to assert 1 fur out. Think I d watch it again.
I said after the Dante, because of his galloping style he looks like a St Leger horse. But the owners/trainer have entered him for everything but. Obviously difficult to train but huge potential. They cannot geld him because his value could be enormous. Hope he has a successful Autumn
@Kevin You can blame them for not going for the Leger, there's still questions about him getting 12 furlongs and many believe that the Leger is too close to the Arc, which I'm sure they are considering, apart from that, they can always supplement for the Leger if they wish?
@@Thomas-vg8ov usually a burst blood vessell, that doesnt keep a horse out 3 months. This was always the plan, listen to William at York. They put him away for 6 weeks.
Horse has a massive stride. Feels like the owners are going to wrap him in cotton wool though. Hopefully he’ll be able to realise his potential. No way he’ll run in the arc on bad ground.
A horse like Bedtime Story wins at Ascot by 10 lengths starting his run from the front, goes off next time against tough competition at 1/6. Ecconomics wins at York by 6L from the rear and he goes off at Evens? Steal of a price for a very classy horse who's proved a lot already.
@@robertdelacy3434 That's the problem, he could be a nearly horse, I've seen a few who get beyond ten furlongs but just don't really get 12 furlongs, but I do think there's more chance that he will stay 12 furlongs than he won't.
Took a long time to get there. Not sure a slowly run 1 1/4 m is what he needs now but Haggas is so cautious nowadays it wouldn't surprise me if that is what they stick at this season.
@@johnball5476 I never said it wouldn't run but I said it would stick at 1 1/4m when it's clearly crying out for 2f extra. That seems to be the case as it's next run is going to the Irish Champion Stakes.
@@tobidunlea2164 No, he's won it snugly in the end but he had to work a little for his victory, he did do well to come from so far back but he was under a little pressure two out, should be interesting to see if he can build on it?
He beat mediocre types on the day, and the evens odds were generous. He should have gone for the Derby. Nobody knows if he's better than City of Troy because his owners are wrapping him in cotton wool. Running him in a mickey mouse race in France instead of a proper race like the Derby
I agree with them not going for the Derby, they withdrew him from the race before he won the Dante because they didn't believe he would handle the course and he bled from the nose after the Dante, that's why they hadn't run him since.
@@Thomas-vg8ov I read horse racing news regularly and this is the first time I heard about Economics bleeding from the nose after the Dante. It's understandable they would be cautious going forward if that was the case. I thought they swerved the Derby because of concerns over the horse's ability to get the trip. Now that the horse has proven its wellbeing, let's hope we can finally see what it can do in a good race against proper horses.
@@duanedurkan3565 Yeah, that's what I read a while ago just after the race, but they had already pulled him from the Derby a few days before the Dante giving the explanation that they didn't want to be tempted if he won the Dante as they felt they course just wouldn't suit him, I have read today in the Post that they are favouring the Irish Champion next.
@@Thomas-vg8ov Good info. Obviously they could have supplemented him for the Derby but if he bled after the Dante they might have felt it wasn't worth the risk. I'd have loved to have seen him put it up to City of Troy. It's a pity it didn't happen. He closed the gap well today and seemed more than capable of seeing out an extra 2 furlongs. Nobody can honestly say if he could beat City of Troy because they are both very capable horses. Well explained👍. Let's hope we see a showdown before too long.

Now that’s a good colt 👍🏻
He's very good
Haggas takes his time with his top horses this horse will only get better he's a beast of a horse aswell
Tom gave him a lot to do turning in. Best 3yo this season imo.
By a country mile my friend!
Very good! Not sure as good as city of troy.
Cleary he’s not the best 3yo
@@careyroberts3924he's definitely not the best 3 year old c'mon be serious

Of course that's what's gonna happen it's horse racing
High class
Reasonably smooth victory after a fairly long lay off for this good looking colt. Potential winner of the Irish Champion / Champion Stakes.
Jayarebe comes out of this with great credit he was up on the pace throughout and kicked for home early enough.

@@christroytrigger.1419he was sat 2nd with no cover throughout and was sent for home first he was there to be shot at
@@christroytrigger.1419the winner and 3rd came from last place jayarebe the only one up there who didn’t fold

His layoff wasn't due to injury, he was held back as he is still growing. This is a G1 Horse.
@@andrewwilliams4283It was also due to the fact that he had a nose bleed after the Dante.

Trainer has said irish campion and/or Champion
This is a proper horse. Arc contender for sure. BTW did anyone notice this was a G2 worth £190,000? Good dough eh?
France the money is good the last few years especially
Strong galloper ❤❤

Top class 3 year old that
If he stays the extra 2f, he looks a serious Arc contender. Though with his connections, not 100% confident he would go there!
No he's a gelding he not permitted to run in arc
@@bclaw35 he's a colt what are you talking about
He's a serious horse if he stays he'll win the arc
Irish Champion and/or Ascot Champion.
No Arc this year
Simply inexplicable why Haggas, didn't take Economics back to York, to take on City Of Troy or think to enter him into the Derby. A bit strange
Running him at York would have been crazy

I got 6/4
Bedtime Story is a filly.
Also that comparison of prices is ridiculous. Not sure what your angle is.
@@johnsonkevin1 My apologies, you know it all 🙏
He has an entry for the Judmonte at York but not listed in Sky's antepost betting :-(
@@careyroberts3924 think that will come too soon
@@tobidunlea2164True, he's come hear instead, Hagges is talking about the Irish Champion being his next natural target.
That race is in 5 days time. Zero chance of him turning up there.
@@conanmclynn6615 Ah! Of course- I thought it was the week after! Thank you for pointing that out to me 🙂
Wondering if he could have still won if jockey held on to him for an extra 50m before playing him. When jockey said go, it felt a little early.
Did well, I thought he was going to get beaten a furlong and a half out but won it well in the end.
Do you think he'll get a mile an half?
@@robertdelacy3434 Quite possible? I didn't see anything here to say he will not, but you never know until they try them?
@@nightowl7459 on the dams side of the pedigree ud say definitely but hes by night of thunder

@@nightowl7459 it's starting to look a decent season
Horse racing is so corrupt
We Need More Winners Like Economics In The Racing World!!
This beats city of Troy
Hasn't run a race on good to firm going yet...
Just seen an Arc winner. No doubts about that! 😎✌️

Horse shit the horse will run another 1or2 times this season

10f is perfect for him
A little workman like but quite understandable for a horse who has been of the course for nearly three months.
Workmanlike…he’s won it comfortably! No doubt rusty but he hasn’t slogged through it whatsoever. A potential star - not many better horses around
@@tobidunlea2164 No, he's won it snugly in the end but he had to work a little for his victory, he did do well to come from so far back but he was under a little pressure two out, should be interesting to see if he can build on it?
Wow .. a giant stride there ! Will take some beating over 1mile 4 furlongs races ...
Can't believe he did not run in top races he the best horse in training will murder aiden o brien over hyped horses
I hate hold up horses

This doesn't have a change of gear in the blink of an eye. Infact this performance was ordinary work manliness at best.
Was off a slow pace, more of a galloper than a turn of foot type horse anyway.
Nothing to see here.
But you came to take a look anyway.
