Here is video of her in the Prix de Diane:

I don't think Sea The Stars would go to the Arc now, there is little point now that 10 furlongs has been confirmed as his optimum trick. He's been at a mile and won, he's been at 12 furlongs and won, but he looks much more comfortable at 10.

Even if he was to go to the Arc, none of the fillies would concern me at all. As I've mentioned just lately, it looks like a very weak division this year. All much of a muchness with the odd couple just being that little bit better.

Sariska is nothing out of the ordinary (in my opinion) but look how easily she won the Irish Oaks...... but what did she beat?? Same with Stacelita.

Moving back to STS, I heard he smashed the track record yesterday, and yet both Mick (Kinane) and John Oxx commented after the race that the pacemakers for Ballydoyle didn't go quick enough for him. He appears to be a freak, an absolute superstar. Which brings me onto the question...... is there anything in the world that can beat him this year?
