He has been hyped all year, and when he made his debut at Newmarket I was pretty excited to see him, and to use a phrase that perhaps only Brock will understand, he wasn't off a yard that day, but still ran well.

They might even consider something like the Juddmonte International for him.

When we saw a horse "wasn't off" or "wasn't off a yard" it means they weren't really there to win, either they weren't fit enough to run to their ability or they were just there to get a run under it's belt. At Newmarket, he wasn't there to win, just to get a bit of experience.

OK I see. Then that would make this race even more impressive right?
Very nice you got to see him.
