Leaving aside the Irish runners - Best Mate beat 15 horses UK rated 160 and above in his 3 Gold Cups - HP was rated 166 in Ireland, B or S 170 ( he ran well the one day the soft conditions suited him )

Quite clearly they were not trees. The very high ORs recorded by Kauto (the best chaser since Arkle) and an on song Denman should not obscure the achievement of winning 3 Gold Cups .
