Hello again Frankel
By colin on Saturday, May 19th, 2012It’s not very often you get an equine superstar, certainly not every year (though the racing media would have you believe there is), but Frankel is one.
Not much to say that hasn’t been said – surely if the real Frankel turns up then the only question is what will finish second? Strong Suit would have been a very interesting contender, but alas does not appear. Excelebration is obviously the form pick for second, though not many Exceed and Excel’s progeny do well over a mile, and we’d normally be looking to oppose Excelebration for second spot if the opposition weren’t so inferior by comparison. Not sure what with in this year’s field – it may be that there is better to come from Dubawi Gold. But with any luck we won’t be talking about the “also rans” later this afternoon.
