Personally, I think Sarafina's runs were so impressive, specifically her last two. Her win in the Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud was awesome, she was ridiculously rank early and held-up, dropped out to trail in short field and then popped out and passed the field, besting Cirrus Des Aigles who went on to win his next two races by like, a combined 17 lengths. He was beaten a nose today by a strong horse in Byword, a very solid horse in his own right.

Cirrus Des Aigles's last three races - three wins, three seconds. The seconds were a COMBINED half-length to Sarafina, Goldikova, and Byword. So that form holds up just fine, and Sarafina edged by him after a ridiculously troubled trip.

If you like Sarafina, you have to like Hiruno D'Amour, especially given the price. I'll play both in the Couple (Exa) and Trio (Tri), and hope a price like the German 3YO can get a piece.
