I don't know how the stewards rulebook in Ireland or for Leopardstown reads as to what does or doesn't contitute in-race interference significant enough to alter the placings? What I would say however is that at this same meeting back in 2012, the Flaxman Stables owned/David Wachman trained filly Duntle won and minutes later was taken down as the winner of the G1 Matron Stakes for much less than I saw committed in this race by Golden Horn.
Free Eagle had a lot of class, but there was no way he'd have went past Golden Horn.. and even if he did put his head in front, he would have got out-battled.. The only way he'd have beat Golden Horn is if they raced off level-weights.. so I suppose in that sense, he was the better horse, but just not officially..
People don't understand Free Eagle, you see Free Eagle is a very, very fragile horse, hence why he only had 3 run's under his belt until he was four. However what people also don't understand is that Free Eagle cant take a hit as much as an other horse does, show this to anyone in the middle of the street, and they will say 'Well Golden Horn won well in the end, unlikely Free Eagle would have gotten up', however that is not the case. You see Free Eagle cant take a hit like any other horse can, he's so fragile yet has so much ability, however if you rewind back to 3:37, Golden Horn basically has all his body over Free Eagle, Free Eagle lost so much momentum from that bump, he came to win it two out, and it was a shame thing's didn't go his way. I was there that day, and believe me Golden Horn was not a poplar winner at all. Not a single cheer went up when watching the replay, all boo's, I believe I even saw a group of people who were throwing can's at Golden Horn when he was being led up in front of the grandstand, also in the winner's enclosure, the cheer was no were near as loud as last year's when the Grey Gatsby got up in a thrilling finish, last year you could barely hear yourself talk in the winner's enclosure, this year you could well talk over it no problem, in my opinion Free Eagle was the best horse in the race and should have won, he's a real little fighter and I think he's one of the best horses's in the world, I hope he go's to wherever Golden Horn go's, so that he can teach him a lesson. If this race was re-run in my opinion Free Eagle would have led them half a furlong out but Golden Horn would have battle back, however Free Eagle would have got back up on the line and Pat Smullen would have saluted the crowd, sadly that didn't happen, however no doubt Free Eagle will get his revenge sooner rather than later.
+Ben Clarke you're a cry baby and a terrible judge. maybe your pocket is talking.. i dunno. Anyway GH has since destroyed Free Eagle in winning the Arc. People like you keep bookmakers rich. FE was emptying and didnt look as though it had the guts anyway. And who gives a toss if a few idiots were booing GH in Ireland? What a pointless comment. It was in Ireland ffs. Go figure.
Free eagle was getting first or 2nd but he Ended up 3rd... That makes 2 reasons for him getting dq'd... Horse in u.s got taken down after winning for an incident after the Wire!! Lol
Free Eagle Was barely Switching leads and putting his Head down for his final Run while he was 3/4 of a length behind... He should of at Least got 2nd for you Dummys that say GH is Best.. GH is a Better Closer because He ObV was Flattening Out and Bolting like Sakhee did in Breeders Cup Classic while placing 4th!! Is it the Horse or Franki Dettori Doing this Dangerous Jockeying!??
Great upload, thanks a lot, watched it in rural Thailand. Keep em coming.
excellent upload thanks, good to see Golden Horn win albeit with a big jink at the end of the race!
The legend is back.
JG is one of the best horse trainer in world 🌍,,,dominating France ,England and winning a breeders cup at USA,,,,
Gosh...he flattened him...
What to you have to do to get stood down at Leopardstown , knock the opposition over ?
Dettori had his whip in his right hand. He did nothing wrong. It was the horse.
è un grande Frankie....wow wow wow....
@Uhegbu. You have a good point there but for me it's Treve all the way. Class, quality and talented too. No question about that

Golden Horn telling Free Eagle to eff off near the end 😂..to be fair the latter had wandered around already and GH didn't know where he was.
Golden Horn shied at something and at that speed dettori did well to stay on.

How can you say garbage three good going toe to toe with a beast coming out on top
i wonder that he wasnt disqualified...
it was an insect grasshopper or a moth give him the spook to bare out not even the stick could've kept him straight.
We do not play that blood clat in america.
TWICE!

So your calling the racing pulbic an idiot.......
***** And thats why they demoted Simple Verse into 2nd, spot on.....
TREVE WILL REIGN SUPREME IN THIS YEARS ARC. FANTASTIQUE!!
+Kingpin UK I think it will be a good renewal. Win or lose, Treve is a Longchamp legend just like Sea The Stars, Zarkava and Dancing Brave.
+John F: Ouch OUCH! Tad harsh and unnecessary. Hey that's racing I guess. Fast ground got Treve beat, but that's my personal view
If he was in America...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Did Golden Horn get Disqualified because Free Eagle should have gotten 1st or 2nd..If he didnt Im Unsubscribeing from Fixed Euro Racing!!??
Free eagle was getting first or 2nd but he Ended up 3rd... That makes 2 reasons for him getting dq'd... Horse in u.s got taken down after winning for an incident after the Wire!! Lol

+oo ee Franki would have got a suspension in the USA for that...Let him try to get away with that riding in the Breeders Cup. It won't fly.......
should have been disqualified
Should have lost the race
