Frankel to run in the Arc
 
Just kidding.

No BC or Arc. Next race, and I imagine it's his last, is the Champion Stakes going 1 1/4 on 10/20.

Weak. Who will really care? They may as well have just had a parade.

There is one reason, and one reason only, why Frankel is still running in the UK, and only the UK. It's disappointing, but to a degree, understandable. No matter what, though, history will not look kindly on it.

And that would be what?

Cecil can't go anywhere else, he's incredibly ill, and they don't want to take the horse away from him. I don't mean give him to another trainer, but literally, separate him from the horse with a trip.

I hope this changes the plan for Excelebration and he goes elsewhere...

Yes :tro: Kind thoughts to Cecil. He deserves to keep his hands and eye on Frankel every single day.
