Thursday 14september a race over 10 furlongs Frankel v see the stars. over a mile and half see the stars wins. over a mile Frankel wins I'd imagine he has to much speed for see the stars but over ten furlongs it's a hard to pick the winner. I'd imagine Mick kinana sitting stalking Frankel moving up two out to put pressure on Tom quillity or kinana could have lead kept quicking up the pace taking the sting out of Frankel's speed but it would have been a great race to see 😂😂😂😂😂 two wonderful horses 🐴🐴🐴🐴 I don't think I could say with certainty if my life depended on it which horse I would have chosen two furlongs 😜😜😜😜 PEACE Dublin Ireland
I have never seen a horse like frankel in my lifetime everytime he ran he just got me excited and just blew my mind away and I have never seen a horse like frankel in my lifetime he's the greatest racehorse Ive ever seen and he's the greatest sire at stud of all time
When queally asks him to go , the way he instantly sorts his feet out and puts the afterburners on is absolutely phenomenal, he made canford cliffs look like a listed winner , absolutely unreal talent , great to see his offspring performing so well also , great stallion as well as a racehorse, just a brilliant animal 😊
@rhyanwalker5998 Take the compliment, Frankel is the greatest British horse of all time. Secretariat is the greatest racehorse of all time. Arguably so. He could run on any track at every distance.
Frankel is without any doubt the best there’s ever been. Secretariat was an amazing horse and as a one off performance his run in the Belmont is incredible to watch but he also lost three or four races to horses Frankel would have wiped the floor with. It’s a shame Flightlines owners put greed before the chance to go for immortality and history as we will never know how good he was.
SEE THE STARS AT THE ARC , I REMEMBER WATCHING THE LIVE ODDS ON A COMPUTER, SEE THE STARS WAS 40/1 COMING ONTO THE HOME STRAIGHT AWAY THE STARS AND MICK WERE ON THE RAIL ABOUT 8 BACK, IF YOU KNOW SEE THE STARS THAT HIRSE LOVED MIXING AND BUMPING WITH OTHER HORSES, A GAP OPENED FOR A SECOND AND HE DIDN'T NEED TO BE ASKED TWICE, AS IM WRITING THIS IM SEEING HIM BURSTING THROUGH THE FAP AND GONE ON TO WIN...EVEN MICK KINANES CAREER STARTED ALL OVER AGAIN..THE STORY ABOUT MICK GETTING ON HIM FOR THE FIRST TIME WAS AN AMAZING STORY....IMAGINE HE WAS GIVING TO A COUPLE'S DON TO KEEP HIM BUSY..THERE'S SO MANY STORIES ABOUT THESE AMAZING HORSES....
I would rate the South African champion Sea Cottage as one of the greatest ever. We tend to forget foreign horses and Sea Cottage in winning 20 and a half ( one tie) gruelling races, several with a bullet lodged in his hind quarters, is worth a look at. Thanks for reading 👍
I was honoured to meet Sir Henry once in Newmarket and what a gentleman he was…! Still miss him and eyes get wet every time I think about this great man ! 😞
Undoubtedly one of the greatest horse of recent time.His sire Galileo n great grand sire Northern Dancer were true legend.Thnx for sharing all the races of this great British horse.
i had tears in my eyes, to have witnessed this God of racehorses,racing doesn't have the same lure, to have witnessed perfection...i miss his Dad Sir Henry Cecil, we all loved Mr Cecil
Love all of them !! Frankel + Tom Quelly + sir Henry Cecil !! We salute !! I can't see better horse then Frankel !! Champion of all times . No one can beat his determination and speed !! Beautiful horse aways number 1 !! When I see Frankel my love for horses increases !! Frankel The Horse of all times !!
I've watched horse racing for 30 years, and Frankel is the best I've ever seen. I've watched footage of Sea Biscuit, Brigadier Gerard, Secretariat, Nijinsky and so many others. Frankel tops them all. It was such a privileged to see him stroll the Sussex Stakes in the flesh when he was 4 year old. My wife, my dad, my best mate and I went that day just to watch him run. I will never forget this horse.
WOW,for a casual fan,that is some statement,I’ve been into racing my whole life,part of my family are race horse trainers,Frankel really was a once in a generation horse
Of the ENTIRE ANIMAL KINGDOM, FRANKEL is my HERO. What a legend, no words to describe how much i adore this classy horse. I love you FRANKEL. Thank you for this video.
In a time your alive, once in a lifetime a performer in any field comes along takes your breath away watching the career pan out for he she to be classed a superstar whilst and a legend after. Thank you Frankel immense
goose bump worthy this is .. what a great bond between the horse and rider. queally literally knew this horse to perfection it seems and all he needed was a booster button and frankel would respond. nice video
Priveleged to watch many great horses over the years but there was something about Frankel getting into its stride that was like no other. A remarkable beast
Was named after American racing trainer Bobby Frankel another legend and a NY character with a quick wit! Love to see champions have a full career before going off to stud so future generations can see greatness in full doses and not just a few races like American triple crown winner Justify! Great video thanks!!
Seriously…..I’ve seen hundreds of brilliant top class horses down the years but none of them “move” like Frankel did. An absolute barrel of power harnessed by that amazing full galloping stride and able to act on any going….just breathtaking.
The best sprinting horse I've ever seen, and arguably better than anything ever seen by anyone. Watching Frankel was and is exhilarating and joyous - a celebration of something superior and exhalted. He made fantastic horses look like donkeys and his action is more dog than horse. Wonderful
magnificent horse and a wonderfull trainer sadly missed great man not many in henrys league thanks for the memorys sir henry its been a privalige to watch two greats together
I have to do the same. I watch it every time and think to myself he made the rest of the field look like handicappers and we know they were nothing of the sort. The greatest of them all, and never again will see his like. 🍬
This is the best racehorse I have ever seen and I will probably not see another one in my lifetime. Absolute superstar whose devastating turn of foot destroyed the opposition. Trained by the late sir Henry Cecil my favourite trainer of all time.
I have to definitely say I've seen a horse like frankel, the power how he eats into ground a machine. God like animal, probably won't see the like of him again, an absolute pleasure to witness 😊
i think i watched his second race on tv and said to my mate theres a horse called frankel get on him next time he looks like a good horse, i wasnt wrong was i, watching this clip again was brilliant, best horse ive ever seen
Frankel didn’t just win he destroyed fields made top quality racehorses look like handicappers. Never be another horse like him. Thanks for the memories.
@@rodneymckee8431 yeh lets take out 3 horses who won multiple grade ones between them out like there nothing, yeh? excelebration would be a star if frankel was not about about, he beat 25 grade one winners in total but dont let that get in the way of the hate. how about just enjoying all the great horses instead of acting like a football fan with my team is better than your team, grow up idiot
@@shaunwhitmore993 he ran 14 times only met 3 top notch horses in his career in 3 different races. The majority of the group 1 winners where poor horses. Excelabration was just like Frankel overrated look what happened when he went to the US
@Brian Whitehead She won most of the majors didnt she?i like her.Did frankel win any of the majors?you know derbies ,cups etc?i cant seem to find him winning any?
Wow! Frankel should be called Lightning Bolt. I don't think I've ever seen a horse put his head down and surge with vigor quite like that. The horse is a symphony of muscle and sinew. I think even Zenyatta would have to start early to have a chance.
The great Australia horse Phar Lap was called lightning bolt..........Translated from Thai to English Phar Lap means Lightning or Lightning Bolt..............should watch the movie Phar Lap he was something else
I'm so grateful to have been alive while Frankel was around. I do well remember backing him on his second race and thinking to myself then, God! How good is he!!?? It was the only time in years of backing horses that my bank balance was in the green. Thank Frankel. Never to be forgotten for all British racing fans.
Not poor at all. If only! No excuses, the best was and still is Frankel the Wonderhorse. No good making excuses for Excelebration, he was not the best, maybe second best is not the best.
f1fantic1 yes kauto was my favourite horse of all time,,,he had a bad race in 2008 gold cup,,,hit loads of fences,,,and didn’t seem right,,,but still got to within 8 lengths of denman,with a terrible run,,,a year later a different kauto was the best
First of all, great video, and love the music. I've been on Betfair for 16 years and I can tell you this horse, this wonderful animal, this great icon has won me more money than any other runner. Sagittarius is coming close, however!
You have to wonder how Bobby Welcomed Sir Henry Cecil in heaven , with a hug and a Thank You for training such a magnificent horse with a great name into arguably The Greatest Horse of all time. This horse was absolutely magnificent.
The moving up to the shoulder of others, then the change of pace, the brutal acceleration, and yet the natural grace of movement… all this reminds me of Ovett and Coe. Frankel was a beautiful racer in every sense of the term.
Everytime Frankel won he just cruised and then powered clear when asked. At that time there were no other horses that could touch Frankel and everyone knew it in every race, even on a bad day he was just too good.
I consider myself very fortunate to witness in person 3 of Frankels wins. I have been trading 40 years and he is the best. Best by far to be honest. Horses don't produce time after time, but Frankels did. Race wins takes massive amounts out of a racehorse, especially at Group level. The horse was a machine. Trained by the greatest aswell.
Peter, you say that the tracks are dissimilar but most of the tracks in Britain are natural, and some of them have not seen a plough for two hundred years. Newmarket is an example. Frankel raced left and right handed, and straight. He went from the front, from the rear and from midfield. All tracks were the same to him. He ran on all types of ground except very fast(we water in the UK because the public don`t tolerate cruelty). Frankel always won. When he ran in the Guineas, his pacemaker could not go fast enough to lead at any point. Horses are getting faster just like humans and no one would think it silly to call Usain Bolt the fastest man of all time. Frankel is the same. His victory in the Queen Anne is the greatest performance on any racecourse anywhere ever. On that day at Ascot in June 2012, he beat European super miler ; Excelebration, by eleven lengths and was within a second of the track record on good to soft ground. That the track record was even mentioned post-race, given the race conditions, is quite exceptional/ unique. Six weeks later, Excelebration beat Moonlight Cloud in France, and that mare was only a nose behind Black Caviar at Ascot.
@@adi6526 he died of cancer...he was receiving chemotherapy during Frankel’s career but was able to watch the horse’s final race and passed away shortly after.
Aahhhhhh man,the whole back story about Frankel is just the stuff of dreams and fantasy,his breeding alone is a work of art,and then the Sir Henry story,everything about this horse is just awesome,he even took a shit jockey and made him look good,absolutely mind blowing stuff,I bloody love frankel
You are not the first to mention about the jockey. Also recently heard he refused to do an interview about Frankel cos his fees wasn't high enough! memo to TOM.... Frankel made you,not the other way round! Bernard manning would have won on Frankel.....actually,no he wouldn't have!😂
@@biblybims9868 Ha ha ha...I was laughing as I was writing his name! Even Frankel would not have won a race with bernie on top! Jesus,the thought alone!..
The Cecil stable know very early on that he was exceptional. Shane his work rider said ' this is a fucking machine'. We are blessed to have witnessed the feats of Frankel. I believe there won't be another like him in our life time. I have seen him at stud and he knows he's special.
Regardless of "greatest of all time" arguments,i have never seen a horse with so much "swag" and beauty. For me his top three performances were. 1)..The Guineas....say no more 2)...the York win... proved he could stay further than a mile and then some. 3)Ascot.....sealed the deal and the horse and trainer of a lifetime,went off into the sunset together. PROPER legends. 😢❤
Awesome animal: "He's 15 lengths clear!" People shouldn't waste energy by making comparisons nor should they denigrate their less preferred horse. We should simply celebrate that we had the privilege to watch these champs: Arrogate, Frankel, Winx, Black Caviar et al.
Ever just find yourself watching this on a random Thursday afternoon. What an animal
Yes, actually. That's creepy.

What a powerful horse! I worshiped him from afar here in the USA. Thank you for this video.
R. I. P. Henry, you went and saved the best 'til last. And by god, he was the best.
he was one of the best milers.
@tehanomander tell yourself that so you can sleep soundly
@tehanomander this pandemic will not last but frankel's fanboys delusions will.
@tehanomander fact 1. frankel never won a race beyond a mile during his 3 year old season.
if Henry was healthier would he have won the Arc?still think he could have won that,he was perfection for me
This is a perfect example of a jockey and horse, they blended so well together! What a horse Frankel was!

I love how he pins his ears and leans into it! I think I saw a smile on his face! A true champion spirit!
Cant watch this without shedding a tear for dear Henry Cecil. So glad God sent him somone special to help him through his final days x
Don't think us Americans don't see how great he was.. absolutely amazing..one of the greatest EVER
You just proved you don’t by saying ONE OF. frankel is and was and will remain the greatest of all time.

Throw two Australian horses into this mix.

Where you in Belmont Stakes 1973?
Even as a casual horse racing fan, I can tell there’s something very different about the way that horse moves 😳
I have to agree!!
The way he moves when going into full sprint for the last 2 furlongs reminds me of a greyhound.
Feels like he is jumping
Ya...he's straight forward..and all he ever saw was the finish line..runnin straight as a ruler

The Greatest, trained by The Greatest.
Yes
Kepp watching this gives me goose bumps and one of the best and he's 15 lengths in front quality
I also have to say that sometimes it makes me cry watching his last race....
Truly awesome. One of the finest horse of 21st century. Coming from wonderful pedigree of Northern Star, the champion Canadian Stallion.
Frankel was one of those great horses blessed by God with the heart of a champion. A true gladiator in the equine world.
Indeed a Wonder Horse..privileged to see him defeating other horses so easily..
Truly amazing. Greatest horse of 21st century. By Galileo this wonder horse was unbeatable for fourteen consecutive races. Great achievement.

Henry Cecil said he was the best he's ever seen. Nuff said!
But to compare horses of different eras is nonsensical. Especially in Britain where the tracks are so dissimilar.
You can compare horses from any time and any distance. Black Caviar to beat this horse. Maybe if it had 20 lenghts start.

Anything up to 7 furlongs, Black Caviar would have given him windburn. Anything over a mile and Winx would do the same to him. Put your house on it.

Truly the horse of a life time. Trained by a master the great Henry Cecil. I saw him at Newmarket Newbury and York he was impressive every time.
The Cecil stable know very early on that he was exceptional. Shane his work rider said ' this is a fucking machine'. We are blessed to have witnessed the feats of Frankel. I believe there won't be another like him in our life time. I have seen him at stud and he knows he's special.
🌹👍👏🌹What a majestic horse and wonderful winnings🌹👏👍🌹
What a beautiful horse, true breeding at its best. Franker made Sir Henry Cecil smile again, R.I.P.
A brilliant horse best flat horse ive ever seen and a brilliant trainer in henry cecil RIP SIR :(
Anthony : Cecil must not have seen Winx ,Black Caviar Kingston Town
Good to see that his stock can develop into ‘middle-age’ - also looks like he might be a fair brood-mare stallion.
Regardless of "greatest of all time" arguments,i have never seen a horse with so much "swag" and beauty.
For me his top three performances were.
1)..The Guineas....say no more
2)...the York win...
proved he could stay further than a mile and then some.
3)Ascot.....sealed the deal and the horse and trainer of a lifetime,went off into the sunset together.
PROPER legends.
😢❤
So hilarious how he went toooooo fast for his own pace setter in the 2000 Guineas!!!!
JEEZ That horse is so fast!!!!! I just love watching horse racing but this horse is on another level
credit to the owners that they kept him in training. just a joy to warch
Behind a great horse is a great trainer. Rip Henry was lovely knowing you. A pair of champions
Such a high cruising speed, it was other horses top end speed. Just remarkable!! What a horse. He’s gone on to have some great foals aswell.
The sire he's become is unbelievable, the fastest sire to produce 50 group winners ever. He's on track to taking over his great sire Galileo's place.
great video,music is great the way it kicks in when frankel turns on the boosters,what a horse.
:p
Awesome animal: "He's 15 lengths clear!" People shouldn't waste energy by making comparisons nor should they denigrate their less preferred horse. We should simply celebrate that we had the privilege to watch these champs: Arrogate, Frankel, Winx, Black Caviar et al.
