Never seen a Classic won after two furlongs before. He is something else.

Get the feeling Henry wants to go the Derby route. Sounds like the Dante will be next. He'll win that obv. Classy, speed miler over 1m2f at York? LOL. Head in chest again. After that I'll want to lay him for the Derby.

Just seen this for the first time.  In 20 years of following racing that is probably the most amazing performance I have ever seen.  The only thing I can think of that even compares is Dubai Millenium in the Dubai World Cup and QE2.

That's the smart money..they have a ridic impressive miler on their hands and the derby is a nightmare of a race, on a nightmare of a track, which could well bugger him up.

Amazing performance.   It was so easy, Francombe was saying he had a hard race, I just never saw it like that.   I thought it may have been suicide to go off so quickly, he wasn't doing much in the final 100 yards, it was like a gallop he was waiting on them coming.   

I think at this early stage he could win the Derby.   I don't see much that is even likely to trouble him.

As amazing as yesterday was I think if the horse lined up for the Derby I would end up laying it for one of the biggest bets of my life.  Be amazed if it stayed.
