Hes not a Euro quality turf horse by anymeans...but his record here in America speaks for itself.
He was great in the million in 2006

Can someone tell me about some of the others against DC? Is it just the case that he wins if only 50% fit, or has he got a race on his hands even if he is almost 100%?

Thanks in advance for answering my ignorance.

I'd say he probably needs to be about 90% or so to win. . . The 1, 5, 6, and 8 are pretty good horses and the 1 has earned some HUGE speed figures having things his own way at a lesser track. . .

Thanks for that.

The guy i know that works for Godolphin in the States can't see him being beaten. He says he is fit and ready.

I'm just not a big fan of the horse, so i'm trying to find ways of him getting beaten.
