With a revised Timeform master rating of 133, Bow Echo (Night Of Thunder) is now 5lb clear of Constitution River (Wootton Bassett) among the highest-rated three-year-olds in training. That Newmarket victory, by nearly three lengths from Gstaad (Starspangledbanner), remains his standout performance. Gstaad, meanwhile, produced a career-best effort himself to be beaten just half a length at Goodwood. His new master rating of 126 puts him behind only Constitution River (128p) among the leading three-year-olds at Ballydoyle, ahead of Benvenuto Cellini (Frankel) on 124. “Gstaad ran a cracker in second, his performance grounds for raising the form of the Betfred 2,000 Guineas, the view taken at the time a conservative one, Bow Echo's master rating now 133.”
