IT'S always good and surprisingly rare to see a Classic winner's performance backed up by the clock.
CONTINUOUS was visually impressive when winning the St Leger at Doncaster and his speed figure of 110 confirms the run as the best performance of the month and up there with anything we have seen this season.
He stayed the 1m6f trip strongly but his next assignment is likely to be back over 1m4f where he threatens to go very close in the Prix De L'Arc De Triomphe if getting the chance to run in Paris.
Either way, he will be hard to stop wherever he turns up and it's hoped that we get to see him next season when there should be improvement to come.
