Vazirbad's road to victory here in the G3 Prix Gladiateur was quite a bit tougher than Order of St George's road was in the G1 Irish St Leger for sure. But they're both arguably the two best stayers in Europe, and frankly have been for at least the past two, if not three seasons, with what I feel is very little separating the two ability wise. Since Vazirbad is already gelded, I don't think there's any rush to retire him. But Order of St George is still an entire, and It'll be a total shame if Coolmore end up carting him off to stud without the two having met at least one time in one of the top races for stayers somewhere in Europe, IMO. I'm not entirely sure how the two keep managing to dodge each other, because Big Orange has never had any problem finding them both. It's a race that's overdue happening, so make it happen for the fans Coolmore & Aga Khan!
