It's starting to sound more or more like keeping him unbeaten and maintaining the illusion of invincibility is what matters most to his connections. He's by f'n Galileo for Christ's sake.

Frankel is entered in the Juddmonte International at around 9.5f, so I suppose there's still a chance. But they've moved the 8f Queen Elizabeth II to the same day as the 10f Champion Stakes, so I don't anticipate seeing him stretch out in October.

Send him to Shug he could throttle back that speed in a flash
