On Saturday night in Kentucky he'll get a fourth shot at France's wonder mare, and this time Richard Hannon Jr is hoping things will be different in the Breeders' Cup Mile at Churchill Downs.
He's taking the fact Goldikova is drawn 10 off 11 as a sizeable crumb of comfort ahead of the big race, and said: "We've had three tries this year and haven't managed it. I don't like to make excuses but she's (Goldikova) not drawn very well this time which is to our advantage. I wouldn't wish it on her but it's happened and I think Paco Boy will like the track. If they go very quick it will suit him.
"Ryan (Moore) thinks he's in very good form and we certainly won't give Goldikova as much air space as we did at Longchamp last time."
