Now that we're talking numbers and not in-the-flesh impressions, I'd like to add my twopenceworth...

My figures for the last two Gold cups are as follows:

2008
Denman 183+
Kauto 178+

2007
Kauto 176+ (previous best 182+)
Exotic D 174

I think Denman beat a far better field last year than Kauto did the year before but I'm firmly in the camp that says Kauto wasn't on his best form last year. The fact that they're now talking about having bottomed Denman in his Gold Cup would put me off him until racecourse events prove he's back to his best.
