Two greats - Sir Henry Cecil and Frankel on the inaugural Champions Day | Racing TV

0:00 - Frankel wins the 2011 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes 2:02 - post-race comments on another imperious display 2:35 - Sir Henry Cecil speaks to Nick Luck Remember this? Frankel took his unbeaten record to nine as he landed the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes on the inaugural running of British Champions Day back in 2011. The 4-11 favourite sat well off the pace as his stablemate Bullet Train cut out a furious gallop in the early stages, but his opponents were even more patient, deciding that their best chance of success was to wait even longer and try and throw down a final challenge. But from halfway it quickly became apparent that Frankel's run of victories was in no doubt. Queally shook the reins to send him to the front over a furlong out, and although old rival Excelebration tried his best to stay with the winner, he had no answer to such a brutal turn of speed. Enjoy this blast from the past and Nick Luck catching up with Sir Henry Cecil to hear more from the master trainer about the development and progress of what is now regarded as the greatest thoroughbred of all time - and what Cecil's post-race celebrations looked like! #horseracing #frankel #britishchampionsday #equine Must-see compilations and best bits ➡️ http://y2u.be/Kfl2CXtG6xA Greatest Hits!
