Cox Plate-winning youngster So You Think's breakthrough spring campaign was recognised by the International Federation of Horseracing when the colt was included among the 20 best racehorses in the world, reports The Age.
It says: So You Think joined stablemate Viewed and Royal Ascot winner Scenic Blast on an international rating of 122 to put the trio on equal 17th place in the rankings, which were released yesterday. They were the only Australian-trained horses to make the top 50. So You Think achieved his 122 rating when winning the Cox Plate and held that mark for his second-place effort in the Emirates Stakes.
Viewed earned his rating for his Caulfield Cup victory, while Scenic Blast's Kings Stand Stakes win at Ascot, and his group 1 wins in the Lightning Stakes and Newmarket Handicap, placed him on equal terms with Hong Kong star Sacred Kingdom.
