Its interesting how the Leger is deemed a **** race..until a really good horse goes for it and loses..Shergar...Alleged etc

yes it seems easy to win..but maybe some people here are underestimating the difficulty in winning it when you have won at 8f and 12f previously

its easy when you are laden with loads of stamina..not so easy stepping up from being the best miler of your year

personally the race bores me each year..but to see a horse win the triple crown again would be something special..it would elevate the race

Frankel v Camelot is a nice race..but some here are virtually saying this is an even match..it could end up being a one sided drubbing imo

yes i'd like to see that race..but i would also like to see a triple crown winner

these head to heads are great in anticipation..but soon forgot..Frankel v CC was one wasn't it?..yes great race..but i doubt anyone will talk about it in 5 or 10 years time

so there..an argument on both sides
