If he was the only front runner, he might be a play, but I think Araafa takes the perfect stalking position behind leaders and wins comfortably!!

I've always heard from people across the pond whose opinions I trust when sorting out the goods in Europe year-in year-out that Araafa was the best Mile hope aside from George Washington....
