      Top class absolutely winner exceptional. Unbelievable watching him quicken twice especially against these. Chief singer was brilliant. Maybe the best certainly right up there as sprinter 6f horse. Actually think these two El Gran senor-chief singer underated. Imo without question the best 2000 guineas winner. Put it this way Frankels win in his 2000 was way behind ELS. He was drunk at finish. When you see a horse like El Gran senor who travels with so much speed yet stays 10f and keep quickening. Judge him with chief singer speed wise July cup winner beating brilliant sprinters easily not to mention st James palace by 10l. I just think on 2000 guineas performances 1984 the best. Visually, horses, form wise, speed figures.

    What great race. This Guineas is the benchmark for ratings. Only Brigadier Gerard and Dancing Brave came up against anything like the class of the horses in this race. I firmly believe El Gran Senor would have been unbeatable over 10 furlongs. He barely stayed 12 furlongs and the only reason he went for the Derby was to increase his value at stud. Even then, he should have won the Derby.

  • @josephineubas4655
    @josephineubas4655 Před 2 lety +11

    A truly brilliant horse. He was a touch lazy as he had a good few runs as a two year old and I remember some close finishes beating a horse called sign of life a couple of times. You could see El Gran senor playing like when eddery pushed him response was instant then stop in front. I saw him quicken up two or three times as a 2year old as he seemed to go asleep when in front. You think he was going to be past and then suddenly bang go again when pushed. Without doubt on their respective 2000 guineas wins El Gran senor would have easily beat Frankel. Mainly because at that stage of Frankel's career he wouldn't settle and would finish very tired like in his next race st James palace. Cecil trained him very well and knew well not to go to epsom as would have destroyed him. Anyway El Gran senor beat a truly brilliant horse in chief singer, just look at him winning the st James palace by many lengths and easily won July cup beating top class sprinters like never so bold, committed. The speed El Gran senor showed here you can picture him without doubt been top class over 6f also not to mention the two derby's he ran in. Frankel tearing away like that would have been no prob to El Gran senor as he had abundance of speed and stamina. The difference as 2000 guineas horses is El Gran senor would settle and could be ridden anywhere. He still would finish really strongly. Now as Frankel matured especially as a 4year old then what a race it would be. I wouldn't be sure been honest but if I had too I would pick El Gran senor cause of wonderful natural ability and temperament. You could ride him anyway.

      Without doubt you say ? Yes maybe YOU have no doubts but please don’t speak for the rest of us .
      Your right , he didn’t truly stay a mile n a half so that’s poor judgement for once on Vincent and Roberts behalf . Also they didn’t want to take a chance on him as a 4yo , Frankel was even better as a 4yo . So , good as The Big Man was , Frankel is just ahead in my opinion , and he is WAY better at stud too.

    Frankel is a great horse, but the first 4 in this beat the second in his 2000 Guineas so easily. It would be a joke. Nobody beats Rainbow Quest by 10 lenghts.
    Rainbow Quest, Arc winner, Coronation Stakes winner. I think 1984,1985,1986, the depth of British horse racing Group 1 horses was amazing. Horses like Enable would be also rans in the big G1 races in this Era. El Gran Senor, Dancing Brave, Pebbles, Oh So Sharp, Sadler's Wells, Bering, Petoski, Chief Singer, Green Desert, Triptych,Chief Singer, Shahrastani , Shardari ,Sagace ,Slip Anchor, Rainbow Quest all probably better than any horse Frankel beat. Personally I think Frankel beats them most of the time, but would have not gone 14 wins against them. Definitely loses by 5l ,the 2000 Guineas to El Gran Senor.
