I think so as well.

Don’t remember the last time we had a pack on the run like this. Normally more spread out at the front.

Who’s that barrel of a guy who doesn’t look like he should be running with the racing whippets. Oh Blu. Just dont get how he’s this good given his body shape.

Blu’s body shape is wrong because the heart and lungs of a Grand National winning horse are a bit big for a racing snake body

I keep forgetting he won St. George, that was hilly.

I reckon he has got one of those old school iron-lungs in his chest.

He always does the bucket hat.

And stuffs a whippet down the front of his trisuit.

The French are like that…

Only dipping in occasionally, but Germany had a Kona podium sweep in 1997 iirc (Hellriegel/Zack/Muller)
