Great to see Generous who we sadly lost this year. This was a really good Derby looking at the betting at least half a dozen Group 1 winners. At the time I was disappointed that such a seemingly exposed horse won but of course the trip made the horse and he really was all class in 1991 and had that beautiful long stride.

@OldRoyalAscotRaces There hasn't been an horse since Dancing Brave who as been on the same level as Sea The Stars, End of story. Mick Kinane as described him as the best he rode and the ultimate thoroughbred, And lets be fair that man as rode some brilliant brillaint horses...

@Katabatic77 didnt exactly beat world beaters in there career and neither did they beat world beaters in the Arc's they won. The best 3 year old You named in that list was Montjeu who I believe STS would have eat up and swallowed on the turf. Where talking about the first 3 year old to win the Guineas, Derby, Arc in one season, If he isn't as good as people make out then why is he rated on the same calibre as Dancing Brave and Shergar (140) In years to come you will realise how good a horse...

Since 1989 when I got into racing Generous would be in a small group of outstanding Derby winners that I've seen along with Nashwan, Sinndar, Galileo, High Chaparral & See The Stars.

This was the first Derby i went to..i was only 18..i remember putting on £10 at 10-1 and cheering him on from the Longsdale Enclosure inside the last furlong..Its a pity he flopped in The Arc but he was a great Horse and a picture of him stands in my house to this day..Alan Munro was always confident of his chances..I went to the Derby three more times but when it got moved to Saturday i stopped going there was something special about a Wednesday Afternoon Derby.

I always rated Marju quite highly. Won the St James Palace beating Second Set and 2nd in the Derby. A pity that injuries affected him in both the Guineas and the Eclipse in which he ran poorly in both!! Thanks for posting, hadn't seen this Derby for ages!

I remember watching this outstanding horse win the derby in a hospital waiting room. In fact he really triggered a deep interest in horse racing and Ive been hooked ever since. These 3 great wins in the summer of '91 are truely impressive and I havent seen many, if any, better middle distance horses since either.

How many times do you hear name Caerleon mentioned in the breeding of the winners in these classic races, a lot. The sire for Caerleon being the great Nijinsky and the Grandsire being Northern Dancer, family lines don’t get much better than that 💎 💎 💎

@Katabatic77 But clearly not because if any of the horses You just named were better than Sea The Stars surely Timeform would have rated them an higher horse than Sea The Stars espcially if Your claiming they beat better horses? Sea The Stars beat some top 3 year olds in his 3 year old career, Aidan O'Brien rarely trains poor horses and Rip Van Winkle, Mastercraftsman, Fame And Glory are not poor horses. And STS didnt just beat Cavalryman or Youmzain did he in the Arc...

Reminds me appearance-wise of Kneller, who could have swept all before him the year following his Ebor victory, had he not died prematurely.

The eclipse STS won was a cracking race as almost all the runners ended up winning a group race later. But this is Generous' video. Let's enjoy...

@Katabatic77 In the 2009 arc there was the double breeders cup winner 2008,2009, St Leger and King George winner Conduit, There was the Irish Derby winner Fame And Glory, Youmzain a treble runner up in the Arc which is a feat on its own. Yes this Arc wasnt as strong as Arc's in the past but the only two arcs in history that I would say had a good field of horses throughout was the 1965 and 1986 which Sea Bird and Dancing Brave both won. Montjeu, Sinndar, Sakhee, Lammtarra, Peintre Celebre...

Sea The Stars broke the Track Record at Sandown for 1m 4f Wiki. won the Eclipse Stakes at Sandown Park a week later. ... the last furlong, taking the Group 1 race by a length and breaking the track record by 0.8 seconds. go back to your h.cap's at wolverhampton. the lowest of the low. I suppose you're going to say O'Brien's Three Group winners of 2009 Fame And Glory, Rip Van Winkle & Master Craftsman, were "crap" ?!!

Sea The Stars didn't break the 1m 4f track record at Sandown as he never run over 1m 4f at Sandown, He won the 1m 2f Eclipse at Sandown
