ANTHONY Cummings said recently he would be surprised the day Smart Missile was beaten, reports the Daily Telegraph in Sydney.
It says: It was a chilling comment from an experienced horseman who is left guessing when it comes to gauging the ability of his extremely gifted colt. Smart Missile is that good, Cummings can't put a figure on it.
On Saturday his big opinion of the powerful galloper will be put to the test when he squares off against Helmet and Foxwedge in the Run To The Rose.
"At the end of the day there comes a time when all the talk stops and the horse has to come out and prove it himself," Cummings said. "I think he is the real deal and he can be the star of the show."
Smart Missile, the only horse to defeat Blue Diamond-Golden Slipper winner Sepoy, is a $4 favourite for the $1 million Golden Rose on September 10.
