Golden Horn will end up rated higher imo

American Pharoah, Golden Horn and Gleneagles could all easily end up with a higher rating, although I guess you could argue that at present they still have to prove themselves outside of their own age group. I would have had Treve a couple of points higher myself.

The Pharoah will grind the Horn into the ground over any distance, any going, any course, any day...

Agreed.

Treve at her best trounces anything that the others above her have showed thus far. But the rankings are based on performances in the last 6 months right? If memory serves, Treve has only run once in that time and that was a G2 that she would have won at a canter anyway. She's proven her self MUCH better than that win.

Ja you need to remember these are recent ratings for runs from 1st January

If Treve wins the Arc again she will get a rating of over 130 imo, not sure AP can beat anything in the states to increase his rating much more ?

Treve will have to beat probably a dozen grade1 winners in the Arc
