Didn't quite a few beat Invasor (when he was only 50% fit) in the UAE Derby??
I'm sorry, but he is overrated. He is a good horse, but not an exceptional one. Godolphin said he was fit and ready for his run the other day and were convinced he had the speed for six. Everyone on the track said he looked plenty fit enough, and these days it is much easier to get horses race fit after an absence. He was hust no where near good enough, and now they are being forced to run him in an ungraded mile race next time.
