well in 2006, there wasnt a horse in Europe better than Deep Impact according to the world rankings. Yes he lost in the Arc, but I certainly believe that he wasnt at his best for a number of reasons.
Japan showed when they came over with Agnes World and El Condor Pasa that they meant business and were among the elite. It took a phenomenal performance from Montjeu to deny ECP an unreal win in the Arc.
