Does that compare favourably with other top previous 3yo's at this stage of their careers?

Last few winners before running in the derby

Lambourn 109 (won chester vase)
City of troy 124 (9th in guineas)
Auguste Rodin 117 (12th in guineas)
Desert Crown 117 (won dante)
Adayar 107 (2nd lingfield trial)
Serpentine N/A (won a maiden)
AVD 118 (won lingfield derby trial)
Masar 117 (3rd in guineas)
 
In the same time frame Sotsass, mishriff, vadeni, st marks basilica and ace impact won the prix du jockey club.

So it has become the better race id say won by classier horses due to the 1m2f trip.

Similar rating then to those high class animals. Thanks FF.
 
Interesting footnote to the interview where AOB was hedging his bets on CR:

A big question whenever O’Brien has more than one big Derby runner is which horse Ryan Moore will partner.

Giving an interesting answer to that, O’Brien said: “I think Ryan would find it very hard to get off Benvenuto Cellini, but I would imagine if Constitution River went he would probably get off Benvenuto Cellini. But it wouldn’t be written in stone.”

:ROFLMAO:

So true it was worth double bubble!

I was posting somewhere else that Timeform have CR 6lb clear of BC and was reminded of the quote. All the royalties can go to you, sir.

There are some interesting views on Stride Predictor for those interested...
 
Not much of a flat fan but I do keep my eye on early season racing as I think there is decent value available (Chester is usually profitable).

Am I missing anything with Legacy Link? Looks a shoe in for Musidora given how her 2 year old form has worked out - even the maiden has winners and C2 placing etc.

Clear of the 2nd fav through Ribbon of the Sea
Beat Moment of Joy at Newmarket - 2lengths in front
Not sure the rest are up to anything
