I do get carried away with him because he is the champ. Just remember before the race. On weights he should never have won. He gave Fields of Omagh what 4.5 kgs. He gave fremason 4.5kgs. he gave republic lass 5 or 6
kgs. These horses have all proven to be quality group one performers. To carry that weight over 2400 is phenomenal and to give other runners 4 kg and win is even greater. He also did it from the front, fields of omagh was within 2 lengths at the turn and couldnt run him down. I think it rates right up there with the best and dont get me started when he beat the best field ever assembled in the cox plate.
