Lets put it this way. Many experts thought after the 2000 Guineas Frankel would' nt win another race. To place in the St James after that would have been an achievement. He won. Thats it.

Moonlight Cloud destroyed a horse Frankel struggles to beat, Zoffany, thanks for your reply, but you got owned once again. ;-)

So you're overrating her by comparing her with a horse who's in a different league from anything we've seen in the last 20 years at least. Its no problem you can hold her in the highest regards but don't insult her king Frankel in the process because you're making yourself look like fool putting your nationality in front with no reason and you know that you're making a bad name of your country if you continue like this but its your choice :-)

LOL overrated means we're looking beyond facts but thing is we're looking at facts he actually achieved unlike your kind the `zombiozzies` who say about her that she was never pushed thats why she didn't beat her adversaries with more than 5 lenghts. You also say she meet top adversaries which is false because she only met average ones and almost got beat in the process. You say that she achieved the fastest furlong in the world while she did a slower furlong than a middle-distance horse....

@ASupremeOwl to be fair AK wasn't at his best, he's top class but the conditions were unfit to him, so DOW didn't beat `comfortably` a glowing AK but rather he beat an unsuited AK. DOW is a classy horse so you're right that he's far from top class of Farhh but I wouldn't disregard AK and what he'd shown till now. On his home ground he was at the same level with Excelebration so that is a huge achievement and compliment because Excelebration in any other era would've been an hailed champion.

the Queen Anne stakes beating Animal Kingdom comfortably. Farhh toyed with Declaration of War and Frankel toyed with Farhh - You see where Im going here? You can take Frankel's form to the bank. Its rock solid. Hes not the greatest of all time for no reason

Your that stupid you don't even see the the stupidty of your posts. Your crabbing on about Moonlight Cloud as a some way of franking Black Caviars form yet she could only beat her a length all out apparently ''injured'' more like saving face from an underwhelming win yet if you run a line through Farhh with Moonlight Cloud it just makes Frankel look more imperious. He beat him 6 and 7 lengths hard held on the bridle. Even today a horse Farhh beat in Declaration of War at Newbury came out won...

One of the "nobody horses" that Farhh beat has picked up a Group 1 this very day, funnily enough! It's interesting that you write about Frankel not beating much because that is a charge very often made against good horses, Frankel, Black Caviar, even Kauto Star over jumps. The thing is there are not many Group 1 winners for them to race against, simply because they have picked off so many of the Group 1 races themselves! This fact is too often overlooked!
