A supposed sprinting showdown between 2 of the fastest horses of recent times, and pretty much a clear-cut case of Battaash winning that battle but losing the war, let rip from the start, going a fierce pace that broke Lady Aurelia and most of the rest by over 1f out, ultimately leaving him vulnerable to the one who stayed afloat in the jetwash, Blue Point clawing him back in the last ½f, but the fact that almost everything else in a Group 1 ran below their rating was all down to Battaash.
