Notice the second, the Aussie Star Witness? Only a half-length loser; he is a Southern Hemisphere 3yo being treated as a 4yo in the weights. He's been beaten rather handily by Black Caviar all three times the two have met.

Yeah, but there's no shame in losing to Black Caviar! Star Witness is a very nice colt - his wins in the G1 Blue Diamond and G1 Coolmore Stud Stakes were impressive.

I never noticed before yesterday just how much he looks like his sire.

I didn't know Strong Suit had a breathing operation. It was great to see him back to his best today and winning the Jersey.

Two starts in 2011 for a dominant 3-length win in the Dubai Sheema Classic and this victory over So You Think today. Rewilding might just be scary good this year.

It was six lengths back to third.
