Two King George and Champions Stakes unless the horse indicates it needs a break.

He'll be a flop at Stud do they should keep him in training as long as possible.

true champions are made at 4.
But these multi millionaire/billionaire owners always seem to want more money, not sure why to be honest. also I think a lot of them retire them at 3 as they (owners/trainers) think they are beatable if they race at 4 by either not going to improve, and cannot give the weight to the year younger generation. |

In my view the WFA is more than fair and doesn't stop champions from winning at 4yo.
As I mentioned a few days ago...who was the last 3yo colt that failed miserably when kept in training? It doesn't happen - the WFA is as perfected as it can be...I think it's a tiresome argument. |

I don't think the wfa is too over the top, but 11lb today does seem a tad to much.
I was more getting to the point that there could be a better horse from the next generation, and 11lb wfa early season is prob 2 or 3lb to much. You then hear well his stud value is this or that and don't want to lower it, when the said owner is worth like £100m+, what difference to their lifestyle is another £20-£30m going to make to them? |
