That burst of acceleration is a thing of beauty, truly magnificent

One of the greatest performances on a racetrack ever. Frankel was in a class of his own. Goosebumps. ❤️🐎

@@MercurialRed9 I thought Frankel in general was ridden to open up a big lead and then hold on to the finish rather than run away from them at the finish. Mill Reef is one that was running away from them at the finish.

Was lucky enough to be there to see this astonishing performance trackside. Takes your breath away every time you watch it!

I remember the commentary on his second race with the foreboding words of "he might just have a touch of star quality about him."

Quite amazing. For a one mile Group 1 at Ascot, usually it's a bunch finish with the winner a length or two clear. Frankel was 12 lengths in front, and the rest of the field looked like they had participated in the Ascot Gold Cup. A seriously brilliant performance.

He genuinely could hold a competition amongst himself for the best performance ever seen on a racecourse. The Guineas win was quite breathtaking but this will never be beaten. A freak of a performance from an absolute freak of a racehorse. The GOAT!

Guineas over rated performance. El Gran Senor Guineas was way better. Chief Singer was second, and was easily way better then any horse Frankel beat. Frankel as 4yo, a different class altogether.

What an incredible sight, imagine being there and witnessing this in person. Frankel was one of the greatest ever horses. Really beautiful to watch, such an amazing animal.

Beautiful....just beautiful!!! I work in the industry and until the day the Good Lord takes me I will clearly remember where I was when it was announced that Sir Henry Cecil had passed away. I can honestly say I was open mouthed when I heard the news. The man was a gentleman and a genius....the like of which the racing game will never see again.

Greatest horse I think I’ll ever see! To have been trained by Sir Henry puts the cherry on top! Wonder horse and an absolute Gent of a trainer

Frankel is as close to perfection you’ll have ever seen & been. Absolute SuperStar….& he knew he was the Best….poetry in motion. What a Horse !!!

The greatest mile performance of all time by a long way. Only other performance in history at any distance in my view that deserves comparison is Secretariats Belmont win. To open up 11 lengths on them that easily, being eased down on the line, was absolutely ridiculous. I think his Juddmonte was very close to as good as this, but for the visual factor we'll never forget this one. What a horse he was, will be over the moon if I get to see anything like him again in my lifetime.

Just imagine, on this day, Frankel beats Secretariat, El Gran Senor and Hawk Wing 5 lengths minimum Frankel - Timeform 147 El Gran Senor - 136 Hawk Wing - 136 Secretariat - 130-135 (over 1mile)

The words of the late, great Peter Bromley about Shergar in the Derby are appropriate for this performance 'You need a telescope to see the rest!' Frankel was incredible.

I've watched this race numerous times and am in awe of Frankel. I'm so glad that such a wonderful horse was trained by Sir Henry before he departed from this world. ❤️

I really miss Frankel. And sir Henry Ceciil.

The greatest performance of a horse ever.

I loved Lammtarra's Derby win, but Frankel? Best horse I have seen in more than 50 years spectating.

WOW, never get tired of watching the horse

Magnificent. Must have 2 hearts. Could’ve been the next Dr Who!

One of the finest horses to grace the turf. Storm Bird. Mill Reef. Dancing Brave. Shergar. Frankel

Goosebumps every time I watch him. The greatest flat horse of all time.

Thay distance was his limit clearly and he dominated every horse that came near him, 11 or 12 of his 16 wins he didn't even come off the bridle. Who said that Arc De Triumph is the race that makes you the greatest?

@ryangardner7962 The two most prestigious flat races are the Derby and the Arc de triomphe. Frankel never even left England, for gods sake. He was a brilliant miler, no doubt about it, but like I said, he obviously had a slight flaw.

frankel was ,is n will always b the best racehorse that hv ever born n race i would b very happy if we got a horse like him here in mauritius

Saw frankel win the juddmonte at york the first and only horse i think that was paraded before and after a race unbelievable horse. And met the great sir henry i offered him my congratulations he just politely nodded with a doth of his hat my friend said why dont you get a picture taken with him no hes in his aura after that performance

Without doubt the greatest performance of any horse or mare, was in the 2000 Guineas, a top class race, he was 15 lengths clear at halfway, and kept up the strong gallop. Every performance was truly magnificent, never to be seen again 🙏🙏🙏

This was 20lbs better then the Guineas. Dubawi Gold was 6l 2nd to Frankel in the Guineas. Hueston we have a problem. Probably the worst Guineas field in History. El Gran Senor beats Chief Singer in his Guineas with Rainbow Quest in 4th beaten 10l.There is no way Dubawi gold beats Rainbow Quest at any distance, on any going on any surface at any age. Watch the 1984 Guineas, The first 4 home probably better then any horse Frankel ever beat. As a 4yo Frankel is a legend. I like to see what the furlong splits were in each race.

That was special i noticed last furlong everyone just applauded amazing

That turn of foot!!

Incredible. One of the greatest performances ever.

Those are Group One winners behind him! He made them look like they belonged on Blackpool beach!

One amazing horse saw him have his first race and blow me down with a feather amazing

We will never see another.

Would love to have seen him try the Derby distance. But I guess Sir Henry knew slightly more than me 😂

Goosebumps absolutely devastating

Absolutely staggering.

Excelebration has to be one of the best value stallions around. Without the freak superstar Frankel he would have been a champion. He was beaten multiple times by Frankel, but still In this race he really tried to put it up to him and was ultimately broken by the best racing performance I have personally ever seen.

Such a pleasure to watch

Wow what a performance ❤

Goosebumps watching that, what a horse

They say baaeed is the new Frankel. Has a lot to prove to be at that level . Although a exciting colt in his own right I don’t think he would have beaten Frankel . But nonetheless after Baaeed winning the Queen Anne today he is a horse I’ll be watching with interest the rest of this campaign.

People often forget that Excellerbration, after being beaten 11L in this race went to the BC Turf Mile and ran a game 4th beaten 2L by Wise Dan running 1.31.78, with a run up of course. Let that sink in a little… Frankel would have likely broken 1:31 in that race had they been stupid enough to take him. He should have finished his career at Longchamps.

Wow still get goosebumps watching that

For sure.

I like how the commentator says at the start that Bullet Train needs some persuading to go in, I'm not surprised haha, imagine if your a racehorse and having to share a horsebox with Frankel after he's beaten you by about 30 lengths

Frankel is the best I've ever seen and frankel is going to be the greatest sire of all time he was awesome every time he ran he just blew every opponent away with ease and Henry Cecil was right what he said that he wanted to have one more year with frankel because Henry Cecil knew that frankel would have got a mile and half and like he said that he's the best I've ever seen the best I've ever had and I doubt that you will see anything better than frankel and he's right because you look at the horses that Henry Cecil as trained over the years and for him to say that is mind blowing and he knew that had a very special horse on his hands

Solid !!

Incredible speed by Frankel, i would love to know split furlong times of his final 2 furlongs.

I think he could’ve won that with me steering- and I’m 15stone🤣🤣

Frankel and Enable rufused to race the champion

Frankel was a freak but it was a pleasure watching him

What. A. Horse. Wow.

Wish he could have met the brigadier gerard ..now that would be the test❤

That was very very special but maybe the 2000 G's was his best ever win. Just because it was insane and not the way any jock should ever attempt to ride a race, unless you have a horse like Frankel under you. I doubt he would have been beaten from 6 to 10f by anything. The best I've ever seen

There was only one group1 winner in that 2,000 Guineas,it was one of the poorest Guineas ever,and I would probably think those horses he beat again there were the same horse as were in the Guineas.

Why does Tom Queally not get rides on top animals these days ? even when all these big festivals / meetings are on Tom's got one ride at Lingfield. Lady Cecil dropped him like a hot brick too, what's the story ?

The GOAT

Not a bad nag but not much to beat here.Winx would have given him a touch up.

This is a procession

Alongside Secretariat's Belmont that's the greatest performance ever

His best win was the Judmonte international 1m2f ... it proved Frankel could not be beaten over any distance ... had he run in the Derby he would have won easily, same in the Arc and so on ... best flat horse ever ... can you imagine him running against Black Caviar and Winx ... he would have destroyed both of them without breaking a sweat

❤❤❤

Credit to Tom here aswell

Woah! That’s some acceleration, would beat a maseratti any day!

There was no need to exert the horse like that tho to win by 12 lengths! Just a couple lengths would have done the job! Prob didn’t need to whip or shake reigns at all!

The only me performance in the same category is Frankels Guineas win

That move is like is that of secretariat

Oh my days.... jock still swinging off him a furlong or so out

No his best win was the 2000 guineas amazing how he won that.

You don't realise it at first, but now I realise the lives these horses must live, in constant fear of being whipped to go faster. What would be better for the horses, to be dog meat, or to be whipped on a regular basis, and if not whipped, a threat of violence towards them. I'm sure this sport would be much better without the whip. It's such a violent sport for these poor creatures.

@OfficialMuffiin

Racing whips are much different than regular whips, they're very heavily padded. The number of whips allowed is also regulated and riders and penalized if they whip too much. These horses are bred to run.

Not one of it is the best & will never be equallised (made-up word I appreciate..)

I could beat Frankel (over 1 yard).

¿Frankel better than Lammtarra, for example? Never
