I've tried to address this point elsewhere.

He's run in two 'Guineas' prior to today. I remain of the opinion than he can't have had hard races in those 'Guineas' on the basis that he's a genuine top class middle distance horse and, as such, can't have had hard races at trips short of today's.

Today was his first 'hard' race of the season and, given the difficulties he overcame and the ease with which he did so, I'd argue his season really only just started today.
