The great Nijinski tried to win the Arc after the Triple...tired in the last strides and got nailed by Sassafras. I recall him running in a race back in England and got beat by Lorenzaccio slightly tarnishing his CV.

Nijinsky ran in the King George too tbf.......If you are going for the arc after the triple crown you're going to need a
break somewhere in between.....Camelot's had that.

So Camelot is the most incredible horse we've ever had?, change the record please, no doubt next year we'll have another most incredible horse we've ever had.
I see Born to Sea gave his Irish Derby win a major form boost yesterday yet again!!, main sequence apart maybe?, the English derby form has been pretty dismal, all he is is a good horse beating trees.

I felt at the time...that if he had not run in the Leger he would have won the Arc
Then of course they tried to restablish his reputation by running him Champion Stakes
they did not need to really ..he had done enough for season and had gone well over the top for the year so that run ignored and forgiven with me
Camelot had had a much lighter season so ok to run in both with me at the moment Nijinksy by far the better of the 2...as things stand to date of course
yes that was sad toumbourineI felt at the time...that if he had not run in the Leger he would have won the ArcThen of course they tried to restablish his reputation by running him Champion Stakesthey did not need to really..he had done enough for sea
