Has it been definitively established that the pace was slow? I note the time was faster than standard.

And do you know what, I hope it does sound the death knell. I have said before and I will say it again: I would way prefer to see a horse like Camelot take on the best horses in the world. Such as Frankel, Danedream, Orfevre, Nathaniel and Snow Fairy. In a race like the Irish Champ, English Champ or Arc. Not some tinpot ex-Classic contested by slow boats.
