I think Flagship Uberalles suffered from two things:

- Being really inconsistent - supposedly due to back problems
- Form tailing off after his 7yo career - he still managed to win his Champion Chase despite his best days being behind him!

The second part meaning he never got the recognition he probably deserved - whilst Azertyuiop, Well Chief and Moscow Flyer were definitely better, they weren't beating anything like the same horse from a few years previously.

I think he should be about 175 / 176 - he was at least as good as Sizing Europe IMO.
