You are trying to justify there importance like justifying that the Italian basketball league has any improtance in the world on the grand scle of professional basketball.....it just doesn't...sorry man..
Oh, ad Sumline won the Cox's Plate sveral consecutive years not the MElbourne Cup...got one insignifgicant race mixed up with another....
It still doesn't change the fact that ytou screwed up by thinking we were argueing Danzig's value as a sire instead his value as a sire oif sires......nice try..
Oh, ad I would tell you every word of this to your face as I am typing it on this keypad because it is what I believe is to be true....
BTW, none of those "Australian Greats" impacted the sport around the world.....Northern Dancer, Raise a Native, Storm Cat...those are a few horses that have impacted the sport around the world - including Australia - but Astralia has never impacted anything truly relavent outside of its racing circles - a racing circle that is inferior to most racing markets....
They actually brought in 3-4 guys from Australia to try to talk Graham Motion into bringing Bette Talk Now to the Melbourne Cup because the thought that it would be one of the greatest coups for their racing product....If that phony turf horse would be a sesation in Australia - that speaks volumes to how poor racing is there.....
Have a nice day :)

I think Danzig is a fine sire of sires, and I wasn't confused... I knew what you were saying and had read every post before I responded. I must have just "mistyped." Let me make sure you are clear on what I meant. I think Danzig is a dandy sire of sires, and I disagree with you.
And even if Danehill were his only son to stand I would still think this.
If you will go to the world thoroughbred rankings (which are created by your loved "industry experts") I can assure you that there are always some Australians on there.

Makybe Diva, Starcraft, and Silent Witness were in the top 10 at the end of 2005, but I guess you are more of an expert than the International Federation of Horseracing Authorities. Only two U.S. based horses were, St. Liam and Leroidesanimaux.
Look Hoss, you aren't going to teach me anything on here. I promise you.
If you want to worship Louisiana breds going six panels in a cloud of dust, be my guest. This game will be an international sport in the near future, and if you don't believe that Australia or Australian horses will be a factor then that is something you can deal with when it comes. I'm not going to try to convince you otherwise.
I'm leaving for Australia in less than a month to go work under a trainer, and if I go down there and realize that their horses are just inferior I will come on here and say so. But don't be waiting for that post to come anytime soon.
