Not if Quality Road keeps going the way he is. As Travis said, it's Horse of the Year, not Horse of the Race.

As for Jessica Is Back vs. St Trinians, I don't think either is very good, but seeing the Zenlovers hedging and suddenly hyping up ST like she's Congaree is hilarious.

As for Rachel's race, I just simply disagree that yesterday's field was significantly weaker than the La Troienne or the NOL were. So yeah, winning by 10 1/2 and running faster than the Foster (heh) is more impressive to me than losing to the two mediocrities she had lost to this year. You have a solid point that we won't know truly if she still has it until she has a stiffer challenge, but to say that the FDL wasn't a step forward for her is crazy IMO.
