Thunder Snow may be the best of the crop-now that would be funny.
Thunder Snow led all the way to win the Prix Jean Prat (G1) for 3-year-old colts and fillies July 9 at Chantilly.
Thunder Snow, with jockey Christophe Soumillon up, completed the one mile over good turf in 1:38.78, without much need to hurry things along. He picked up his second group 1 win, following the Criterium International at Saint-Cloud, which completed his 2-year-old campaign.
“He's a monster,” Soumillon told the
Paris Turf. “The race went well. He was able to go to the front and relax. When I asked him to accelerate he was very professional.
I can see it now: Thunder Snow upsets Arrogate in the BC Classic. The greatest upset in the history of the sport.
