its called time form.
Canford cliffs the worlds best miler! if in doubt he will prove it in the breeders cup mile this year! goldikova stay at home.
Whos the best mare then?
Goldikova is so popular because she has won 16 g1 races! not just the breeders cup and she has won over a mile before her most recent victory was over a mile but her prefered trip is a mile.
oh and national hunt racing doesnt suck its much more exciting side of horse racing except the bad accidents of course but horses get bad injuries running round dirt tracks aswell!
when did i compare the two? dont get me wrong i think the kentucky derby is a great race i was just saying that i dont think its the worlds most famous and prestigious race ! i think the grand national is the most famous race in the word because there is no other like it! there are plenty of derbys and classics through out the world.
You can say that bout the grand national,english derby,arc de triomphe,dubai world cup etc.... But the grand National is most watched race world wide! its such a specticle there is no other race like it in the world!
The kentucky derby is a great race but the worlds most famous race is the grand national 4m 4f and the biggest fences in horse racing to jump! proper racing!
