    G1 sprints are indeed very different animals to those that hoof it has been winning.

    I don’t follow UK racing outside of the Group races, but I have noticed a lot of horses who went close in recent big sprints (King’s Stand, Golden Jubilee, July Cup and more) were running in handicaps and listed races, sometimes against Hoof It.

    Bated Breath, Monsieur Chevalier, Society Rock, Genki come to mind

    From what I can gather the gap between C2, Listed, and G1 isn’t that big for UK sprints (unthinkable in jurisdictions w/ stronger and deeper sprinting ranks like down under and in Hong Kong)

    its to do with the prize money that there is not much diffrence between and that why a lot of top sprinters go for the handicaps.or maybe you only have a handful of top sprinters down under and in hong kong and the handicap ranks there are crap and before you come back and say what about starspangledbanner and other horses they are group 1 sprinters and i am refering to handicap sprinters

    we at speedbet have been doing figure’s now for over a year and i have found that it is better to forget the first part of the race because in most races there is no early speed and most of the runners only make there move late on.of course some races are not like this and a full run race has to be noted.but i have found out that it is only the latter part that matters and it has done us well as we have some of the best speed figures on the net now.but as i say every one differs in style to there own figure’s

    of course he is a great horse and the way he won the guineas should tell you that,if anybody doubted him then they should be ashamed.he is a true champion and has proven it before royal ascot but he has to win a few more big races before you can put him on top but i would say he will win a few more
