Cant have a horse that never broke a track record as up with the best AG,not even in two cent races in her own back yard.The clock is a fair measure for sprinters even if other variables have to be considered?

She was never really tested in Australia though but her sectional times were very impressive. She only needed to do what she had to. The fact her sectional times were so good tells me she would have dominated over here at 5 furlongs for the last 2 years.

There is plenty of literature on her sectionals. I have just been checking them out again. Plenty of mathematical brains have been equating the speed of Black Caviar and even on dead ground she was still recording impressive sectionals. I dont think that there is any doubting her speed over 5 furlongs..but thats her limit in world class G1 racing.

Zenyatta mark 2.
Runs up a massive sequence at prohibitive prices in favourable conditions against a moderate peer group. Certainly nowhere near as good as Dayjur/Lochsong and probably on a par with Deacon Blues. |

 I leave the room and a Mensa meeting ensues All so seemingly knowledgeable about a subject, opposition, times, tracks.... 10500 miles away THE BIG QUESTION IS....... which one of you is Steven Hawking Can't be TomThumb, because........ Those times mean little when run on dead flat tracks on good or fast going. Fast tracks have been basically extinguished from the landscape of professional Australia racecourses for almost a decade  Shows how easy it is to fool people. By watching a replay and reminding me of those past winners I'm fooled?  Blinded by the unbeaten record. When it lasts for FOUR seasons it's a tad hard to ignore...sorry  Not the same as running here is it? .....Now that's just GOLD Not Hawking .......perhaps Einstein??? Bigprick? Cant have a horse that never broke a track record as up with the best AG,not even in two cent races in her own back yard.The clock is a fair measure for sprinters even if other variables have to be considered? Definately not Steven  PeteGabriel You made some sense but....She is a monster over 5 furlongs. As an English man i still feel this.  Freakin me out a bit there....so nope, not Steve  so that leaves HighPriest..... Runs up a massive sequence at prohibitive prices in favourable conditions against a moderate peer group hmmmmmm.... Well....it must be you Love your work, Steven! |

interesting read from you one eyed poms
 lets look at it in what matters most to english, "the stud " ask your selves one question. "why are 2 of the 4 highest price (fee) sprinter stallions fully booked in england and breeders cant get enough of these 2 and are australian sires ", naturally the other 2 highest price (fee) reside in australia bag australian horses as much as you like, pound for pound on equal terms they are 2nd to none and your racing industry know this as fact, not 2 bit mug punters on a forum with an opinion |

No such animal as an Australian thoroughbred megsy,how many times do you need to be told?
 |
|
By:
Megsy we know that breeders easily get caught up in all the hype, but hype or not, it is what the offspring achieve that will ultimately decide whether breeders stick it out for the long run. (long run - no pun intended)

Choisir looks like a stallion success story already but his fees really are chicken feed if you look at our classic stallions..and that my friend reflects the gulf in class when you compare BC to Frankel for example.
What is the stud fee for Galileo?? ..you numpty |
|
By:
never fought of chosir, add another, but only average in oz.
poor Equiano cant even get $5,000 stud fee in australia after winning 2 kings stands, now that tells you a lot |

By:
Angel...ummm, whats galileo got to do with sprinter sires? the subject is all about sprinters
|
|
By:
Admit it megsy,it is BCs colours that turn you on.nap
 |
|
By:
Exactly i am pointing out to you that sprinters are two a penny. BC is a fast sprinter. Just another one down the line. What has she ever proved apart from that.
Before Royal Ascot you Australian thick heads were even comparing her class with Frankel. She is a sprinter who barely stayed 6f. Sprinting is like 20/20 cricket. Its a novelty event. |

By:
Angel...are they really?, fastnet rock service fee $220,000 and listed as private fee in ireland keep an eye on his daughter atlantic jewel.
