Electric dual G1 Prince Of Wales's Stakes hero Ombudsman (Night Of Thunder) is now the highest-rated Flat horse in Europe with a ranking of 134, according to Timeform. The Godolphin runner dominated Wednesday's Prince Of Wales Stakes by four lengths over multiple Group 1 winner Minnie Hauk (Frankel).John and Thady Gosden's son of Night Of Thunder powered clear of some high-class rivals, including Arc winner Daryz (Sea The Stars), whose rating dropped one pound to 131 pounds. Previously, Ombudsman was rated 130 pounds, but thanks to his Prince Of Wales's Stakes heroics, he is now one pound better than the 133-rated Calandagan (Gleneagles) on the list. Timeform has Hong Kong sprinter Ka Ying Rising (Shamexpress) rated 137 to lead the world.Timeform's middle-distance handicapper, Rory King said, “It has been decided to award a rating of 134 to Ombudsman for his emphatic repeat win in the Prince of Wales's Stakes, the highest achieved by a horse in Europe since Baaeed (Sea The Stars).“That puts him just ahead of his Champion Stakes conqueror Calandagan which required plenty of deliberation, but, on balance it's a decision that looks justified given the time and closing sectionals of Wednesday's success.“What's more, Buick appeared to have learnt from that Champion Stakes and, in a race that panned out very similarly, bided his time for longer to deploy Ombudsman's scintillating turn of foot to best effect.“Being ridden like that could help him turn the tables on Calandagan when they meet again, for all there's clearly very little between those two top-class five-year-olds.”The post Ombudsman Tops Timeform Flat Rankings In Europe appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
