Possibly, but at the end of the day it was a 3/4 length victory over a horse who's highest class of win was a G3 and who was trying the trip for only the second time (after failing miserably the first).

I'm not saying Paco Boy is not good, he clearly is, but the accolades with which he is showered seem hollow to me. If he is "a top class miler beyond doubt" then I want to see him slamming genuine G1 milers in strongly run races.

Personally, I don't believe he is up to it.
