Having said that, he hasn't won anywhere since February 2006. He was also beaten three lengths by Fight in November. What makes you say he is the best of Doug's with that form?

Pride Of Baghdad won quite well today.
I might be thinking of a different horse with a similar name, but he's a bit of a character, isn't he? Doesn't always want to win.

Could be.
His last gallant win, in a field of 4 no less..... Sweet boy. Look at the date...  NEWMARKET (JULY) 08 August 2003 Good To Firm 8:20 Bexhill And IIB Insurance Brokers Conditions Stakes (Class C) (Class 3) (3yo+) 1m2f Draw TRAINER Age Wgt JOCKEY SP OR TS RPR 1 Bonecrusher 4 D R Loder 4 8-13 v1 L Dettori EvensF 104 44 109 2 2½ Gallant Hero (GB) 3 Sir Michael Stoute 4 8-13 K Fallon 3/1 104 39 105 3 nk Barrissimo (IRE) 2 W J Musson 3 8-4 Richard Mullen 10/1 39 104? 4 1¾ Shamrock City (IRE) 1 P Howling 6 8-13 Seb Sanders 100/30 99 35 101? This looked a good opportunity for BONECRUSHER to return to winning form and, equipped with a visor for the firdt time, ran out an easy winner. He was a little keen early-on but when the leader stepped up the tempo he travelled much more easily and going into the final two furlongs there only appeared one winner. He readily went to the front over a furlong out and galloped on strongly to the line. He could now be starting to discover the potential he possessed as a three-year-old and looks capable of adding to this victory in listed company. Gallant Hero probably found the ground too lively and was being vigorously ridden when coming under pressure in the final three furlongs. To his credit he kept on going all the way to the line and should find a similar event when ground conditions are in his favour. Shamrock City had run a blinder over a mile here last weekend and set out to make all but was clearly no match for the winner. However, he clearly retains his ability and will find a race in due course. Barrissimo ran a sound race for one so inexperienced and on his first outing since last October. He should improve for the run and he won't be long in winning either.
