He has been on the go since February/March this year, so it's been a long season for him, even though he hasn't had much racing. South Africa - Dubai - England is quite a bit for any horse, and sending him to America might have taken the edge off him.
They couldn't have got worse luck with the weather over here this summer, and i bet De Kock is very frustrated. I still think he would have won the Juddmonte with firm ground, but yet again the rain came in time for the overrated and lucky Authorized.
