Total freak of a horse ..never seen a cruising speed so high and to quicken effortlessly ..never be another.Tom queally you are blessed to sit on the greatest horse ever.
This guy was just special to watch. Unbeatable What he did in the guineas was frightening. It'll take a proper good horse to ever be considered as good as this guy was. Always the greatest 🙌
What Frankel did was amazing and as I detest trying to place horses or sportspeople of different generations - I prefer to call him one of the horses of a lifetime I actually spent some of my early childhood in the cottage within Freemason Lodge grounds In the summer I spent a lot of time with both Henry and his brother David who also became a trainer Incidentally they both died from similar cancers Later on I was invited to Warren Place for 1st and second lots of work Henry would never tell me that a horse would win but I learned over the years to understand his mannerisms But before Frankel had his first race as a 2yo I spoke to him briefly to just ask him how things were going and his reply was - “I am very excited about a colt named Frankel - he is a monster “ Henry seemed to train on his feeling from the horse - this was so evident with the fillies and mares It was fitting that one of the trainers of all time should at the end of his life having trained one of the best horses of all time Both special individuals
Thank you for your level-headed comment, One of the best is more like it. How he would have fared over 10f. against Ribot, Sea Bird, Nijinsky, Brigadier Gerard, Mill Reef, Dancing Brave, Shergar or Sea the Stars is anyone's guess if they are prepared to be realistic.
uno de los mejores caballos de todos los tiempo... me gusto porque no me agrada estar haciendo comparaciones interminables que no llevan a ninguna parte
Yeah a Frankel foal turns out to be better than he was ( Yeah I know, I'm a dreaming looney) & they named him Cecilstar👌 Goes 18 unbeaten with 15 x G1's including Guineas, Epsom Derby, Irish Derby, Ascot Champion Stakes, Irish Champion Stakes, QE11, Queen Anne & throws in the Arc💪
I always considered Tom Queally a special young man. He was a perfect fit for Frankel, talented enough to match him, humble enough to truly honour him. What a special story around this great horse, who has touched so many hearts all over the world.
Great film. Really liked Tom Queally's storytelling.... I was very lucky to be there at the 2000 Guineas and both his Champions Days victories. Very special memories.
Thank you so much for that. I am 70 and can remember so many of the greats. Busted, Nijinsky, mill reef, the brigadier, Nijinsky, dancing brave and now Baaeed. All got beat but they were not trained by a genius. God bless Sir Henry.
The Guineas was the moment for me. I had to watch and rewatch because I just couldn’t believe what he’d done to the rest of the field. And the disbelief in the commentators voice at the halfway stage watching every horse in the field off the bridle still gives me chills. A special horse who would have been retired to stud much earlier with many other owners. We were lucky Prince Khalid Abdullah wanted to enjoy the ride with us and Sir Henry.
@@Alison-qd2cm Got greedy asking for too much money to cooperate with the Frankel documentary and got himself almost written out of the story. Put a lot of people's noses out of joint in process so has not had the career he might have had otherwise. Couple of other faux pas did not help either.
@@tomtheeagle1 He was a journeyman of a jockey. Wouldn be even in the top 500 . If you put Leglock Luke Harvey up on Frankel he would still of remained unbeatin
Such a special horse. Unprecedented mix of G1 sprinter cruising speed/turn of foot/ability to stay. Couldn't have been trained by a better man either. Feel lucky to have seen Frankel because I think it'll be a while before we see another one on turf as good as him.
I hope there is a movie made about Frankel. People not in racing need to realize how magnificent he was and unbeaten in all his races. Frankel is also proving himself as one of the great sires. Also he was named after Bobby Frankel, a great trainer in the US. Trained by Sir Henry Cecil.🏇
Through my life,i watched horses that i liked,win many & lose a few,but Frankel never disappointed me,he was the ultimate equine athlete.i feel that,juddmonte will have another one like him,in the future.
Best flat horse ever. Can never get my head around why the best horse/jockey is defined by the flat. Ruby Walsh was the best jockey and horseman I ever seen
The greatest of all time over 10F, sadly he was never tried over 12F, so you cannot say he was the greatest over 12F, therefore he would not have beaten the likes of, Nijinsky, Dancing Brave, Sea Bird and many more greats. Henry new he wouldn't get the 12F, he just about got 10F, he wasn't far ahead of the second in his last race.The saddest thing about the occasion was to see poor Henry so terribly ill and not far from passing, that for me will always spoil the occasion. RIP Sir Henry !
@@christopheraspland2091 and those other greats as good as they were, wouldn't of got near him over a mile either. He produced the best performances of all time over both a mile and 10f, and the best performances outright. Of course the 12f will always be an unknown, but the idea that that prevents him from being considered the best horse we've seen seems silly to me.
@@stu3232 Nijinsky won the Triple Crown , something no horse has done since , so would have given Frankel a fright - at least. They`re all great horses of their time.
Well yes Frankel beats Champion Stakes winner and King George winner. Not much else he can do really with 10 Group 1s. Theres never a but with Frankel.
Well done nice to go down memory lane again, guys if anyone has never seen the documentary the trainer and the race horse it A MUST WATCH frankel documentary in my top 2 regarding horse racing other being the story about secretariat. R.I.P. sir Henry Cecil 🙏
What a super horse Frankel was on the track, & now doing it as a super stallion hence his daughter Alpinista winning the arc, just love this horse.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🏇🏇🏇🏇🏇🏇🏇🏇🏇🏇🏇🏇🏇
I one billion percent agree and I am shocked not to see his offspring being raced in America shaking my head its the same thing pretty much with Gallileo and sadler wells offspring
Bloody hell im getting too soft in me old age. Tears for this one. Not quite sure if it’s for Henry, Frankel or just the story as a whole. We will never see one better ❤️
Remember him winning at York over Mile and quarter couldn't pull him up after the line would of stayed mile and half easy. Quite simply outstanding Animal. Trained by the great Henry Cecil.
A wonderful and heartwarming film. Does anyone else think that there are some parallels between the careers of Tom Queally and Geoff Lewis, who rode the great Mill Reef? (in all his races?) Both jockeys were excellent riders, if never quite considered among the greats, and after reaching the heights of their careers both jockeys surprisingly struggled for rides. One would think that after his masterful handling of Frankel that Queally would be in more demand, but since Frankel´s retirement his obvious talents seem to have been ignored.
I think with Queally the death of Sir Henry Cecil was the main reason. Personally I never thought Queally was top class. He made many tactical errors that the likes of Buick dont make with the same frequency. There maybe something else with Queally regarding attitude etc as he has fallen out with a few big trainers who just dropped him. See Fanshawe.
I was fortunate enough to sneak into Warren Place one Sunday morning whilst going for a jog.... a very kind stable lad invited me in ....I got to see Frankel up close and went to stroke him as you do........ the stable lad grabbed my arm and said "I wouldn't If I were you.... he'll bite your arm off!" It was like meeting the Queen
Men that have been around the top racehorses claim that Frankel is the best there has ever been - who am I to question that ? The horse was a phenomenon .
Greatest Horse ever! 12 group 1's in one year! Went up against Ballydoyle 5 vs 1 in the juddmonte international. He even refused to run when he sees Bullet Train being tacked up for the same race he was running in. His Derby win was a sight to behold but his Arc win was even better. Won by 15 lengths at Longchamp on his way to a best ever 175 Timeform Rating. truly the greatest of all time.
Sitting in the Barbers, TV showing sky sports news on mute, my 9yr old son Shouts shouts "DA!..FRANKEL!",he never watched a horse race in his life nor has he any interest, I showed him re runs a few years back but he knew immediately who it was when he saw him pop up
Same.this horse was a freak Baeed would fade..I remind you of the 2000 Guineas at the bushes..(And Frankel is 10 lengths clear).n he didn't stop galloped through the line.
@@Rugby755 I don't, I genuinely believed Baaeed has had things a little bit too much to his own liking, and I truly believe Frankel has faced better opposition throughout his three seasons racing.
Baa’eed has very similar accomplishments but he doesn’t seem to have captured the public’s imagination and hearts in the same way. Even now, ten years on, these pictures bring tears to my eyes.
Für mich persönlich das beste Pferd überhaupt, was ich gesehen habe 30 Jahre, das ist so reflektieren❤❤❤❤ das zweite Pferd wäre Moskau Flyer, das ist meine Generation😂❤😊
Baaeed is a very good horse no doubt about that but what Frankel races against those proper groups 1 horses and beat them by miles said alot about Frankel greatness.
Look at what frankel ran against and what he ran off, Appleby doesn’t even have a pace market in the race for, the race is already over before it’s began
I thought greatness in the UK/Europe was measured at 12 furlongs? Cecil knew what he had.....the best grass miler of all time. Cecil, through his great training abilities, was able to stretch him out to 10f. There is a reason he never participated in the Arc, was never even considered for the Derby. Secretariat was champion on dirt and grass, from 6f to 13f and set world records in both of his turf races. He also set records in each of his Triple Crown races, all 3 which still stand 50 years later. I believe his (Beyer) speed figure in the Belmont, which he won by 31 lengths, was 145, and if memory serves me correct, no other horse has ever broken the 130 mark on the Beyer scale.
Did the health problem of the trainer, Henry Cecil, become the reason why Frankel never travelled to race abroad? Sir Henry seemed to be no longer able to speak in a normal way here because of such a problem.
His trainer was ill so time ran out whether he would have got the distance in arc we'll nether know sadly he never went abroad but glad he was with sir Henry Cecil.
Frankel not great sea the stars was greatest horse of all time in Europe with menu legends mill reef dancing brave winners arc triomphe and Epsom derby frankel not champion
Lucky u came upon him and was his jockey cause bar frankel your career has not been anything impressive / eye opening 😅 only for frankel would u still be riding and getting calls and call up to ride in grade 1s 😅 im afraid not tom and its clear to be seen since frankel retired where do yea be on bigs days since good oul frankel went stud tom went of the grade 1 radar 😅
Hope all you Yanks watch this.I am fed up of reading that Secretariat was the best ever.Secretariat never raced on grass in England and at English courses like Epsom,Ascot ect with all their ups and downs and undulations.
Not even top 10 of all time flat horses. A ridiculous rating that pales into insignificance against the achievements of Sea the Stars, Nijinsky, Golden Fleece, Dancing Brave to name but a few superior horses. You can buy a rating as judmonte did with Frankel to try and contend with coolmore and his father Galileo. Keep him over a mile, don’t risk getting him beat in a derby or arc and your rating will be safe, they didn’t allow for the fact that people can’t be fooled all the time. STS guineas and judmonte were faster and he only ever raced in the last furlong he was so laid back. Frankel rated 7lb higher than STS😂 a guineas, derby and arc winner who was faster than Frankel. Winx 1mile times are faster than Frankel and she raced in Australia, Baaeed had a high rating of 138 without running in or winning a classic, only 2 lbs behind STS😂 gimme a break ffs, Shadwell trying to buy a rating to contend with his father STS just like judmonte bought Frankels rating to contend with his father Galileo, corruption is rife in racing, especially at the top, but you can’t fool the people who know.
Mael Morda -Well I thoroughly enjoyed the story; he and his trainer were champions and brave in their own way. Where Frankel ranks in the annals of horse racing hardly matters just like as to who is/was the best footballer Pele, Maradona, Messi or Ronaldo etc etc.
A fantastic horse but to call him the best horse ever is totally nonsense what frankel did was excellent but he done it on home soil the whole time where as sea the stars travel for all his races on all types of ground and for me he is the better horses than frankel will ever be
@@paulnewman3282 timeform ratings mean nothing if your a jumps fan when cynrame won one good race he got a higher rating than alitor and if anyone knows anything about racing there is know way he was a better horse than alitor so I just don’t go by ratings I’m not knocking what frankel done it would have been interesting to see what he would have done if he travel
Brigadier Gerard never left the UK, Secretariarlt never left North America, Phar Lap besides his last ever race ran 32 times in Australia. Shall we not class them great either? This never travelled bollocks is a smoke screen for the woeful formlines of STS. He beat La Boum 5 lengths in an Arc a animal rated 120 at his best..
2000 Guinesas time almost 2 seconds slower than the greatest of them all SEA THE STARS. Never won outside of England and they call him a world champ???? ... Get a grip ye fools.
Cockney Rebel ran a faster time than both STS and Frankel, shall we class him a better animal as well? Frankel would have eviscerated STS over 8, 10 and 12f... Move along 🤡
What a Beautiful Champion!❤️
Total freak of a horse ..never seen a cruising speed so high and to quicken effortlessly ..never be another.Tom queally you are blessed to sit on the greatest horse ever.
This guy was just special to watch. Unbeatable
What he did in the guineas was frightening.
It'll take a proper good horse to ever be considered as good as this guy was.
Always the greatest 🙌

What Frankel did was amazing and as I detest trying to place horses or sportspeople of different generations - I prefer to call him one of the horses of a lifetime
I actually spent some of my early childhood in the cottage within Freemason Lodge grounds
In the summer I spent a lot of time with both Henry and his brother David who also became a trainer
Incidentally they both died from similar cancers
Later on I was invited to Warren Place for 1st and second lots of work
Henry would never tell me that a horse would win but I learned over the years to understand his mannerisms
But before Frankel had his first race as a 2yo I spoke to him briefly to just ask him how things were going and his reply was - “I am very excited about a colt named Frankel - he is a monster “
Henry seemed to train on his feeling from the horse - this was so evident with the fillies and mares
It was fitting that one of the trainers of all time should at the end of his life having trained one of the best horses of all time
Both special individuals
Brilliant story thanks 👍🏻

Please god one day Frankel fathers a super horse, a horse of a lifetime, a horse of which myths are made and he is named "Cecil".
Cecil is a top name for a horse, great idea
Yeah a Frankel foal turns out to be better than he was ( Yeah I know, I'm a dreaming looney) & they named him Cecilstar👌 Goes 18 unbeaten with 15 x G1's including Guineas, Epsom Derby, Irish Derby, Ascot Champion Stakes, Irish Champion Stakes, QE11, Queen Anne & throws in the Arc💪

Greatest ever only horse thats ever give me that great feeling just watching him watching greatness
Superb video, lots of fantastic memories.

Movie started pre production in 2020 then delayed by COVID. Hear it is back on again. Fingers crossed 😊

For me, all horses are beautiful, there is no one better than another.
Beautifully put together @attheraces. The best ive ever seen...

Why did he not go for the derby? The distance?

@@paulnewman3282 timeform ratings mean nothing if your a jumps fan when cynrame won one good race he got a higher rating than alitor and if anyone knows anything about racing there is know way he was a better horse than alitor so I just don’t go by ratings I’m not knocking what frankel done it would have been interesting to see what he would have done if he travel
Brigadier Gerard never left the UK, Secretariarlt never left North America, Phar Lap besides his last ever race ran 32 times in Australia. Shall we not class them great either? This never travelled bollocks is a smoke screen for the woeful formlines of STS. He beat La Boum 5 lengths in an Arc a animal rated 120 at his best..
Sea the Stars was scratched from the Irish Derby because of soft ground. What nonsense are you talking??? 🤡
You will never see a better horse, until one of his betters him.
2000 Guinesas time almost 2 seconds slower than the greatest of them all SEA THE STARS. Never won outside of England and they call him a world champ???? ... Get a grip ye fools.
Cockney Rebel ran a faster time than both STS and Frankel, shall we class him a better animal as well? Frankel would have eviscerated STS over 8, 10 and 12f... Move along 🤡
I think sea the stars won the Arc
@@mikelelwood682 just how many races did frankel win over 8f during his 3 year old season?!?
The best horse ever was Ribot. And Nearco and Secretariat only near him.
