When we see a four time GC winner no doubt we will .


The point that most horses beaten by Best Mate were never the same again seems to escape many on here - let alone that the horses that tried to take him on in his best wins faded away tamely and horses ran on from the rear past exhausted rivals .


As for beating nothing let me see - Florida Pearl , Looks like Trouble, See More Business, Cyfor Malta, What's Up Boys , First Gold, Beef or Salmon .....


It seems that unless there is a Kauto or Denman in the field a horse has beaten nothing . Look at the proximity of Calgary Bay in IC's Gold Cup - he is rated stones below Best Mate at Wantage I am sure . There are a considerable number of overrated horses out there rated highly for getting close to Kauto or Denman one day - or even beating them like Snoopy Loopy !
