i'm very sure
 no doubt in my mind that the arkle was a stronger race than the champion chase and i say that as massive fan of sizing europei dont think either the old boy nor finnians rainbow would have finished any closer to ss than cue card did in the arkle...it was incredible display of power and menace from sprinter sacre maybe sactuiare might prove a fly in the ointment if he follows up on that run at sandown,,,,who knows |

Sanctuaire at Sandown was every bit as impressive as SS was in the Arkle imo
Cant wait till they meet. As for FR and SE not doing any better than CC had they been in the Arkle........no comment!!! |

You might be right ftv but at this stage, neither the official handicapper nor Timeform share your view!

My gut instinct is that he won't stay but had a trip down memory lane and seem to remember Kicking King and WOA getting beat in the arkle but then winning the GC. It's exciting indeed.

Good thread by originator and congrtaulations on tipping up the first two big races of the season.
By the balls he has this game  |

I think there are one or two people out there who still cant see how good sprinter sacre is.
Yes he thumped Cue Card, but that's not a reason to knock CC, a relative comparison would be that Frankel routinely thumped Excelebration who was a triple Group1 winner himself. Get the point? If it wasn't CC getting ''well beaten'' by SS then it would be something else. |

Cant speak for others Sint,but as far as im concerned i aint knocking CC at all,just stating facts re the Arkle,and wondering what his best distance is??
As for Sprinter,i will reserve judgement till i see him take on the best around,im like that!! For me he has yet to run in race against the likes of Sanctuaire and last seasons QM horses,and when he does i will come on here and say what i think. |

Sounds like you rate Santuaire above SS Budde, even though he has achieved significantly less.
Not that long until the Tingle Creek anyway. |

Eh!
Not sure where you have got that idea from Sint. I have said that imo Sanct at Sandown was just as impressive as any display i saw from SS last season,but i reserve judgement on which one is the better till they meet. |
