i was there ror all 3 gold cups and at villa park when they paraded the gold cup for his 3rd . its always the same . unbelievable talent , unbelievable horse , every time he raced he was there or there abouts.... only denman and kauto are near him . he lived with a weak heart which limited his progression. which just adds to his persona.... these are great athletes and great horses of our time ... give respect .. new approach , sea the stars they will be the next also tartan bearer
one of the things i wish i could have seen was best mate going for his 4th gold cup. im not saying he would have won but he deserved to take his chance. injury robbed him of that chance.
i loved watching best mate. such an athletic horse with an abundance of class and guts.
he was most certainly and amazing racer, and for me he was perfect in almost every way. i loved watching him race, i couldnt believe it when it was reported he had died from a heart attack. :(
He died? :(

Such a lovely horse... but he died doing what he loved best which is always nice to hear...
He was an awesome racer from what I heard and I'm sure he's in race horse heaven running around by now <3<3
