I don't think that he has reached her (at her best) as yet (about half a stone is right). But I'd be reasonably confident that he will. Any improvement as an older horse (assuming they keep him in training) will see him there. His final absolute (with weight for sex stripped out) could well shade the mare.

Remember that Paco Boy's absolute rating will be higher than Goldikova's on yesterday's performance. At her best she may be a little better than that, but I think not much better.
