Is Baaeed the best horse in training?

Owen Burrows, trainer Baaeed is certainly the best miler in training, especially as it looks as if Palace Pier will head to stud. What he's done in such a short space of time is incredible. It makes you wonder how good he will be next season.

Brian Ellison, trainer On Saturday's performance, yes without a shadow of a doubt. I didn’t think there was much in it between him and Palace Pier before the race but he’s been very impressive. He’s the up-and-coming one and you have to remember Palace Pier is a hell of a horse himself. It was a good race.

William Jarvis, trainer I think he probably is. What he has achieved in the last few months, coming from a maiden win into being a dual Group 1 winner is pretty phenomenal. He must be up there with the best and he's certainly the leading three-year-old miler and probably the best miler in the world. Our horse Lady Bowthorpe ran great and I suppose she's now the third-best miler.
