I would say it was a good field, but not outstanding.
There doesn't seem to be anything special from the French crop of 3yos, but time will tell. Telescope smashed a not so special field at Ascot. Mukhadram is a good horse but isn't elite.
He beat nothing in the Irish Derby. The horses that came out of Epsom have been fairly unspectacular. I know he was only 0.5L behind Kingman, but he still didn't beat him.
I'm not cynical in the sense that I'm saying Australia isn't a superstar, I just need him to beat the elite before I can believe all the hype.
