2009 Goodwood Stakes

[GBeret83]

A lot of people have always considered Gitano Hernando just a synthetic surface specialist horse. But he dispelled that notion by going to Singapore and winning the 2011 G1 Singapore Airlines International Cup on turf. Against a very deep field, too. The likes of California Memory, Irian, Presvis, River Jetez, and Wigmore Hall. I do believe the level of form he showed winning this race may have made him the toughest international competitor for Zenyatta in the 09' BC Classic if he had run? JMO.
