Turns out the Amorim name is unlucky on the racecourse as well as on the pitch

Owned by huge racing figure Sheikh Mohammed Obaid, Amorim was a well-backed 10-3 before the off in the 6f contest.

But he was absolutely no match for runaway winner Postmodern.

One punter joked: “Amorim can’t catch a break, now he’s been beaten at Yarmouth too.”;;

While another wrote: “Amorim finishes second at Yarmouth. You couldn’t make it up!”;;

The defeat came after Man Utd boss – who ended their 17-year trophy drought with victory in Bilbao on Wednesday night.

Old Trafford chiefs have subsequently ‘‘, according to reports, with the club said to be facing financial ruin.
