I have never really bought the - Brigadier Gerard was ill when Roberto beat him story . He beat Gold Rod by further than ever that day into third . I just think he was better at a mile than 10f and after trying 12f and just scraping home against a moderate field he was run into the ground by a brilliant horse going left handed on a going day.

What will never be known is what would have happened between him and Mill Reef over 10f - I suspect the latter would have won.
