I thought slip anchor reference point oh so sharp and many more from Henry Cecil were outstanding horses but FRANKEL has raised a bar that i don't think will ever be matched ill never forget the commentey in the gunnieas of disbelief in his voice when he says he's 15 lengths clear it outs a shiver down my spine

I was sat at home one day watching racing and having my usual Saturday bet and I think it was having its second or third race and I remember thinking.... This horse is going to be summit special... Never thought in a million year it would turn out like it did...... Wow... What an animal.... Lost for words.... My grandad lived for horse racing but passed away 3 year before this superstar burst on to the scene... I often wonder what he would of thought of this amazing creature.........

All I will say is the horse had freakish ability and was befitting the genius that handled him. His Guineas win was extraordinary and I haven't seen a classic won in that manner before or since racing with the choke out for the whole race. American horses have a different style to those that race in Europe and he would never have faced Black Caviar because he would have had to drop to sprint distances, the horse was bred to be a champion and they did a very fine job in keeping him sound and unbeaten and targeting and more importantly winning against everything that was put before him.

Really only one story where this horse is concerned and it's not even a long one. Frankel was blessed twice by God Almighty himself. The 1st time with the kind of freakish ability that you see maybe every 20 or 30 years, if you're lucky, in a really special horse, and blessed a 2nd time with being afforded an absolute genius trainer in the late Sir Henry Cecil. A man who'd forgotten more about training thoroughbreds than most would ever hope to learn in two lifetimes. A trainer who knew exactly what buttons to press with Frankel to harness and bring out all of that wonderful, God-given skill and ability that Frankel possessed, and he did so brilliantly on pure instinct. I think Frankel was probably destined to be a brilliant racehorse no matter who had trained him, but I think only the late, great Sir Henry Cecil could've turned him into the kind of phenomenal machine that we were fortunate enough to have gotten to see for those 3 seasons on the racetrack. That's the end of my Frankel story. Short, sweet, and to the point!

You hear the same names thrown out in arguments about which is the greatest racehorse of all time and it's usually Frankel / Secretariat / Red Rum and so on and so forth. I only recently learned of" Zeleznik" - four time winner of the Velka Pardubicka steeplechase / Czech Grand National. Amazed so little is known in the UK about the race and its winners especially horses and jockeys whose multiple successes are incredible. Not ripping on the all time favourites or legends in any way but think if you're really going to weigh up and list the best racehorses there are some yet to be given due credit.

Sir, any man worth his salt knows that Arkle was the greatest horse. Two handicaps existed - one for when Arkle was in a race ... another for when he was not. Name another horse they did that for. I rest my case. Arkle it was. You mention a Czech race, whcih all Irishmen are aware of, but to say it is equivalent to a gold Cup is nonsense. Then you have Golden Miller who won five of them.

With Frankel's Top Sires Line, Both Lines Leading To Northern Dancer... With Greater Toronto Area DNA. How could Frankel NOT be a Champion. Like more than 90% of ALL of today's Thoroughbred Champions having Northern's GTA-DNA. Northern Dancer the only Champion The King Of Sires to change the conformation of the Centuries Old Thoroughbred. "Too small they said" rejected at his yearling sale. YET to become 3 year old North American Horse of Year in both his Canada and the USA. Although running on a cracked hoof, that would have kept most horses outta the races. Northern became the Kentucky Derby Champ and record setter. with a time still faster than both his prodigee Triple Crown Grandsons American Pharoah, and Justify 50 years later... Northern Dancer England's last Triple Crown Winner 1970's Nijinsky Sire. The only one in 84 years now. With MILLION DOLLAR STUD FEES in the mid eighties. There will NEVER be another Northern Dancer!!!
