Great ones aren't scared to race on ovals smaller than a mile
His final times so far don't put him near the conversation of fastest ever. If final times are all that matter, you must think think horse is an afterthought. I don't get that from you tho
wow...anyone that thinks time is the biggest factor never watched Cam Fella or On the Road Again or any really good horses, they went fast enough to win.Its all about class, class will overcome speed.....Steady Star time trialed in '52 and got beat by a mid level horse in his next start.When its time to 'hear the music' class shows.Perhaps 'Karl' is the class of his group..but they aren't an overly impressive group.
They all get beat, get over it. He's still got over 750K, more races to go. He will still end up standing stud, and people will breed to him. They won't care about skipping 1/2 or 5/8 mile tracks.
No one took the time to read my original post. All they are doing is commenting and making fools of themselves. Briefly, I posted that due to evolution, horses in 2024 are faster than the horses from 40-50 years ago. Of course the morons here started posting names of horses that just raced or raced in the last few years. The idiots here then started disputing the theory of evolution. These are the same idiots that can't count to ten unless they are given 15 attempts.
Cam Fella was great for 1982. He never broke 1:53 in his life. He couldn't beat a 10K claimer in 2024.
He raced in 1982 not 2024!--raced in the mid 1980s!--made 2 million dollars and won 28 races in a row!
Like I said, horses from 40 or more years ago do not have the innate ability that horses of today have. It is just a fact. I never said the horses mentioned weren't great horses. Look at my posts. I called them all champions. You assholes just don't understand that the horse you followed with your Dad, Mom, Brother or Uncle when you were a kid is seconds slower than the horses of today. For the retards, and you know who you are, look up what innate means. It might help you understand and by knowing what it means, you won't continue to look like the jackasses that you have all turned out to be.
