Thoroughly enjoyed your article. I think you can’t really understand how great these sporting champions from the past were just reading the bare black and white statistics . The Don’s record is jaw dropping enough but they don’t convey his sheer domination and demoralisation of very good bowling attacks. Seeing that must have been unforgettable for those lucky enough to be there. The same with Phar Lap . Those that saw him race never forgot him and wouldn’t hear of any other horse being as good as him. Winx is the best I’ve seen . Not just because of the races she’s won or the margins she puts on good horses but the way she does it. I’ve NEVER seen a horse who can do what Winx can do. And I don’t care a jot what the rest of the world thinks of her!
Watching Winx yesterday was like watching Don Bradman bat
You’re right that this debate could go on forever! Personally in my 40 + years watching horse racing I’ve never seen a horse who can do the things Winx can do . And do them consistently for 3 years. Her cruising speed is everything else’s top speed and she sprints home like nothing I’ve seen. And hold that top speed for a very long time. She’s a freak of nature just like Phar Lap.
Who is Australia's greatest race horse?
