I do love how the Euros pronounce Bull.
Yes Bullish Luck was only a turf horse but he is actually quite solid and classy. The class of the World Cup field dropped off a lot after the big three so to speak. Forty Licks? Vermilion? Kandidate? All nice dirt horses but not in the same league. Bullish Luck has successfully competed against the best in Asian turf horses, which as we now know are to be taken seriously.

Kandidate's only a G3 winner on Turf I think... came 2nd or 3rd in th 2000 Guineas in 05 though.. it was funny listening to the experts before the race.. all expected Kandiate to lead with DC just behind.. they werent the only one surprised to see them sitting 2nd last and last for most of the way!!
