    The stiff 6f was a stretch but by miles the best horse in that race

    Travelled like a monster

    Well done anyone that was on

    My two ante post bullets both ran very badly but was good to see blue point do the double

    What a star Blue Point is, honest tough horse.
    Great run from Dream of Dreams too.

    What an exceptional horse, he might just have been running out of steam in the last few yards,
    but he was entitled to after 2 top Group 1 races in the space of 4 days. My nag Le Brivido
    missed the break, didn’t see daylight until late on and made up a lot of ground, but you
    can’t miss the break in a race like this.

    I’d imagine that’s probably the last we’ve seen of Blue Point, which is understandable,
    how could you better that :unsure:

    With the way his form fell off a cliff after ascot last year it must be likely he is retired to stud immediately

    Like you, BigG, I wouldn’t be shocked if Blue Point doesn’t race again after that. Adore Kachy so I’m absolutely buzzing that he finished 3rd. Unfortunately, Le Brivido wasn’t able to make back my Queen Anne money but hardly like I had high expectations today. Dream Of Dreams is a proper horse at 6 and could be an ideal type for the Foret. Of the remainder, Sands Of Mali was useless perhaps the trip out to Meydan took a bit out of him.

    Sands of Mali has been very up and down since the commonwealth cup

    Actually hes mainly been pretty poor other than his big win in the champion sprint

    Some hoss to do that after a soft ground win on Tuesday! Fair play to Charlie & Godolphin for having the mentality to do the double, he now looks like a proper sprint stallion of the future.

    Not a surprise

    Dont think they’d have run him twice in the week if retirement wasnt the plan
