    She will get decent allowance in Japan Cup , how did Ravel beat her . I like to see race as that horse done nothing since .
    Coolmore should save the airfare and emissions sending the St Leger winner over as that was where I read he was going . Zero chance in Japan Cup .

    Timeform have Equinox as their top-rated flat horse globally. He’s on 135, with Ace Impact on 133.

    What’s interesting is that Westover is on 131; anyone who watched the Sheema Classic will think there’s a bit more than four pounds between the Japanese horse and Ralph Beckett’s charge.

    How on earth did Flightline get a Timeform rating of 143?!

    Country Grammer won 11 million , Dubai World Cup and Flightline beat him 19 Lengths untested at Del Mar , 143 probably bit low , never tested streeted fields every race .

    What I’ve learned from Equinox is that despite it getting rammed down our throats, the Arc is not the be all and end all for Japan
    superb horse… :heart:

    Looks like we’ll get a chance this Sunday to see how good the filly is.

    “Coolmore should save the airfare and emissions…”

    They could cut the latter by binning the post-race marketing hot air.

    Both are among the final 18, no sign of Continuous on the JRA site,
    Equinox stands to win £3m & a £2m bonus for having won the Dubai Classic.
    The incentives for invited horses are very generous but only Iresine has travelled over.

    Continuous isn’t running due to stiffness

    EQUINOX would carry 58kg.
    LIBERTY ISLAND would carry 54kg.

    That was well worth getting up early to watch. Stunning performance; he could have won by ten lengths if Lemaire wanted.

    Pity we’ll never see Equinox in Europe.

    What a beast EQUINOX is.

    Also 140,000 fans turned up 😳. They do love horseracing in Japan.
