Loved watching noble mission this year! He was a fantastic champion! he was a breathe of fresh air to the British grade 1s last year which all seemed to be ' canter until 2f out and then sprint'! He's got one thing that seems to be in his blood, HEART! just like his brother frankel he's got a heart of a champion. Massive addition not only to lanes end but to the whole of American breeding!!!
I'd say William Farrish misspoke a bit when he said Noble Mission "won it handily" talking about his final race in the G1 Champion Stakes at Ascot. I'm not sure I'd call a 2f fight to the wire against Al Kazeem with a heads up, heads down nose bob deciding the outcome "winning handily."
2:07 The Breeders Cup Classic isn't the equivalent of the Champions Stakes. That's an insult to the historic Champions Stakes that's been run since 1877. Americans....
Punters and horse lovers are fair weird. Everyone was looking at this horse thinking OMG he's the exact same breeing as Frankel... expecting his to win 14/14 even though he looked nothing like Frankel in the head or body, Much bif snout and longer head than Frankel. The way yee all get excited about these full siblings, You'd swear if Usain Bolts parents had another young fella this year he's be the only person to beat his brothers world record. THINK people. Apart from Urban Sea, What other mare/sire combination has foaled say 2 almost identical champions, full brothers to eachother? None lol. Look at all the Derbyes winners, hold on, Look at all of O'Brians big race winners over the past 5 years, thats about 100. Now, we'd expect a GOOD few of them to be the full sibling of a champion or group one winner from 1 or 2 seasons ago. But no. Go through ALL of O'Brians Deby runners this year and lastclick on each individually in the racingpost website, click on their damns at the too, and it'll tell you on the left there all her foals, who she was bred wit, and the name of the resulting horsem it's win/loss ratio next to that and it's total prize money and PR, Look at EVERY single one of them the average amount of foals for these Derby winning damms looks to be 4 foals on Average. SO you'll see at the top of 9/10 of their pages, you'll see Wings of Eagles, prize money maybe a million or alot more if the horse was better, rating 129. But then you go to the other 3 horses, 2 of them would be bred IDENTICALLY to the derby or Dualk Guineas winner, but it's only the top horse wit 1.7 million in prize money and unbeaten as a 3yo, the rest of em, races 17 times, won twice, a Grade 5 handicap here or there... SO harsd to believe isn't it... This horse is only winning crap Class 5 handicaps with 3k prize money, while their brother is out hacking up in the derby, again, Breeding success is as UCH a Mystery to them as it is to us. Why do you think Aiden oBrian had over 80 f*cking horses in Training out of Gailieo, from Mares who won at least 1 Listed race as a minimum (yup thats the criteria for a deby winning potential, Galileo, and a Mare who ran fro 7f to a mile 4, and she HAD to have at least ONE win at listed or above. ANd he had 84 of almost this EXACT same horse the season before that also, and Cracksman won it. They don't know why won can be born a super world record breaking MACHINE, yet another one the sae can be born the following year couldn't put it's own Training Jersey on himself. It's the Brains obviously. Certain horses are born ALOT smarter and ore aware than others, Horses in general are EXTREMELY unnintelligent animals, and maybe your world champion would be slightly more alerts when it was thinking "OHHH.. THe last 8 times they brought me off like did, they made me run and i got really tired, and they were BATING me wit a stick". lol All these people roaring and crying about horse abuse from the whip "Hurting the Horses" lol, a bit massive 500kg animal like that getting "Hurt by any kind of pathetic whip his we can land on it is utter nonsense" it's be the same and a baby sitting in your back hitting your shoulder wit an elastic band. The reason the horse LOOKS like it hurts or something, Is again, because they're so stupid, the whip flying around infront of them and then hitting off them frightens the bejesus out of the dumb shits lol
I agree that it's not that easy to breed a champion, if it was we would have the same bred horse winning the Derby on more than one occasion, the nearest is perhaps Galileo and See The Stars both having the same dam, but a completely different sire, as for the whip it's claimed to make the horse think it's being attacked from behind.

He is a Beautiful Horse.

Capo Capo well hes 100% correct it is the equivalent to the classic and would you like to explain why you think its an insult???
If I have to explain it, then you still don't get it. What's next, the breeders Cup mile being the equivalent of the Queen Anne?
Palm Trees and Rum They’re talking it’s just as much as a stallion making race, they’re both just as important.
Where is he now?
I think he's in Japan.
Stand to be corrected tho..

This video ends up being about the people and not much about the horse. we came to see the horse, not to listen to the people talk.
I don't get the attraction of him to American breeders?
He's by Galileo and I suppose the Americans would have baught in to the Frankel hysteria.
