After her Japan Cup and St Cloud flops I was also in the camp whom firmly believed her Arc demolition job was a "fluke", not anymore. A brilliant performance yesterday in beating some very authentic opponents especially the excellent Nathaniel by a few inches. What I will say though is that Danedream definitely needs a strong gallop and she got that yesterday.

Many pundits seem to judge the quality of a race by the price of the winner. If Danedream had been 2-1 (she almost broke the course record) at the Arc,the race would have been rated as one of the best ever!
