マンノウォーステークス
In Autumn, Godolphin campaigned Fantastic Light in the United States. At Belmont Park in September he started odds-on favourite and won the Man o' War Stakes "comfortably", to record his first Grade I victory. In this race he was ridden by Jerry Bailey, who claimed that he had always had the other runners "at his mercy" despite having to come round the outside of the field. In all his remaining ten starts Fantastic Light was ridden by Frankie Dettori. He disappointed in a return to Belmont for the Turf Classic, finishing fourth to John's Call, a horse he had beaten in the Man o' War.
