What kind of fractions for the race? Do they even keep them?

One of the worst rides ever. The only thing worse was the Japanese horse sporting the colors of Secretariat.

Zoffany is OK, but the field overall wasn't imposing. That jockey will get Frankel beat sooner rather than later.

That ride was laughably bad. Comical actually.

Frankel will get Frankel beat sooner rather than later. He doesn't look able to run in any other way and he will get gobbled up at a short price when he faces older the first time. Good chance he'll be off the board in that venture if they keep this up.
