![]() Trying to think of a more impressive performance on a world class stage in recent years and am drawing a total blank... anyone have one? I think we saw a very special horse today. Too early to drool about a matchup against Treve in this years Arc?

![]() One could argue that Frankel and Black Caviar never ran against fields as tough as the one Just a Way made a mockery of today. Albeit they were both freaks.

![]() I ranked it with Lord Kanaloa's domination in Hong Kong Sprint last year - you just don't see turf sprinters win by a widening five lengths
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhDvLcf2NM8 Just A Way got a remarkable pace to run into, though. The first 400m split of the Duty Free was 0.04 off the record time for 1800m turf races at Meydan, and it got progressively faster from there. Tokei Halo is a speedball with no other way to go but forward. 400m record - 24.98 (Tokei Halo 25.02) 800m record - 47.87 (Tokei Halo 47.12) 1200m record - 1:11.66 (Tokei Halo 1:10.53) 1600m record - 1:35.95 (Just A Way 1:34.04) 1800m record - 1:47.93 (Just A Way 1:45.52) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGQeYYrKccA This was an absurd pace setup - the first five finishers broke the old final time record, essentially suggesting there were some career bests in the mix.
