Seems about right to me but Desert Crown and Vadeni on equal pegging?
I would have thought after the close call of Vadeni's he'd be behind Desert Crown

Find it difficult to think either of them feature in such a list after so few runs. I would have thought horses need to prove themselves at the highest level a good few times.
Reckon Baaeed has only won the same number of GP1's as Vadeni, BJ?

Luxembourg has a bit to do to get on this list......
Despite Baaeed’s impressive performance at York I’d be surprised if Flightline didn’t overtake him yesterday.
Quite incredible performance.
Alcohol, because no good story ever started with "I was eating this salad..."
And not exactly a shower of also rans he beat. Not to suggest that baeed did.Originally Posted by wilsonl
But wow.
How can you compare when there is a likelyhood the American horse ran on what would be deemed in the U.K as a performance enhancing drug?
I assume so would the 2nd Martin, who happened to win the Dubai World Cup earlier in the year yet was swatted away by 19 lengths.
I don’t go much by Racing Post ratings but they have the performance as the best ever on dirt and 2nd highest ever on any surface. 140, only bettered by Frankel’s 143.

Wow! You can say that again. Secretariat livesFrankel and Sea Bird's domination could be in danger if he does that sort of thing again

As Wilson predicted Flightline is now heading the world rankings.
Hardly suprising he really does look the real deal. ........absolutely blew me away.

Nice win from Nature Strip early this morning.Personally I thought he would need the run after his trip to England.At anything close to evens he will be a max lay for me in the worlds richest race which is on the 15th October.
Another $1m in the kitty.....he's actually 2.20 which seems very generous and 9.0 bar Luke.
Considering Eduardo who he just kicked into touch is 3rd fav at 13.00 you don't have a lot running for you.

Got turned over at long odds on this morning.
New kid on the block Luke....unbeaten 3 year old and no fluke about it despite te long odds.
Could say Nature Strip and Eduardo did too much too soon but the ground Giga Kick made up from 2 furlongs out...gotta be a bit special.

Personally I think the trip to Royal Ascot took its toll.
Annamoe might be an interesting one for Royal Ascot next year
