    This is my list of top British flat race horses in order of merit over 10 furlongs

    1.Dubai Millenium-
    His 200 Dubai world cup win was like a seeing a racing car.I would not envisage even Sea Bird Beating him on that day.

    2.Frankel-His class would have enabled him to stave of even Mill Reef or Sea Bird upto 10 furlongs.

    3.Sea The Stars-Gave some of the best performances ever seen in the Irish Champion stakes and Judamonte International .

    4.Dancing Brave-His exceptional speed may just have given him the edge over Mill Reef or Nijinsky.

    5.Brigadier Gerard-His class would have enabled him to prevail over other greats.

    5.Sir Ivor-10 furlongs was his best distance and his devastating acceleration may have helped him nose out Mill Reef or Nijinsky.

    6.Mill Reef-His 1971 Eclipse win over Caro was one of flat racing’s best ever performances.

    7.El Gran Senor-A sensation upto 10 furlongs.

    8.Nashwan-An all time champion over 10 furlongs which he proved in the 1989 Eclipse Stakes .

    9.Busted-A true racing great.

    10.Royal Palace-A class act over 10 furlongs.

    To be pedantic: Dubai Millenium was trained by a Dubaian in Dubai at the time of his World Cup win in Dubai; although the horse himself has a GB suffix. But may be we should treat the question as a rough guide.

    Brigadier Gerard for me.

    Dubai Millenium was very good but interestingly enough, Frankie thinks Frankel would have beaten him.
