GHAIYYATH makes all in the 2020 Coronation Cup at Newmarket under William Buick - new course record

Ghaiyyath made every yard of the running to claim Group One gold in the Hurworth Bloodstock Coronation Cup at Newmarket in a course record time.
The five-year-old was sent off the 11-10 favourite and William Buick was quick to employ front-running tactics on Charlie Appleby’s charge.
Buick allowed his mount to stride on and he soon built up a healthy advantage, with only Frankie Dettori on star stayer Stradivarius deciding heading out in pursuit.
However, Ghaiyyath was not for stopping and while Anthony Van Dyck made up ground in the final furlong, the Godolphin runner was two and a half lengths too good, with Stradivarius running a fine race in third.

Anthony Van Dyck :(

[@icildatugman6732]

when he lead easy, impossible to get past in the fi am furlongs. Brilliant but need the lead to win

[@an08p]

Reminds so much of his grandfather dubai millenium.

[@nightowl7459]

This horse should have remained unbeaten this season if William Buick had made slightly more use of him in his last race the Irish Champion Stakes.

Phew. So impressive. The others were flat to the boards from a long way out.

Mighty impressive performance !!

His full brother, Al Nafir, makes debut today at HQ.

Superlative. In October 2020 Godolphin announced his retirement to Darley's Kildangan Stud in Ireland

Who's your fancy for the derby

[@anotherblonde]

@@robertdelacy3434 My fancies are Mohaafeth. Van Gogh was an interest but he's out now. Wonder if he does to Royal Ascot. Favs and Moore do not have a good time in this race. Possibly Dettori's last Derby. They've been watering Epsom for several days now, so going will be good to fast. Hope they all come home safe, not like poor Coshockton, who broke down near the finishing post. I was there that day. You sticking with Bolshoi Ballet. O'Brien snr's only runner now?

@@anotherblonde bolshoi will romp it in my opinion Mac swiney is also of interest if he can handle the good ground

[@anotherblonde]

@@Shadai929 Ground is an issue for Mac, also that recent hard race. Bolshoi is 5/4 today, good you got on when you did. Good luck

Another horse who needed everything to go his way to win a race hence the reason he generally won small field races

[@anotherblonde]

The winning time of 2:25.89 was a new course record for Newmarket !!! On 19 November Ghaiyyath was named Horse of the Year and Champion Older Horse at the Cartier Racing Awards.[30] In the 2020 World's Best Racehorse Rankings, Ghaiyyath was rated the best racehorse in the world, four pounds clear of the American colt Authentic. Are we talking about the same horse?
