Easy Goer ran a 0 on the Ragozin Sheets in his Belmont Stakes win--the exact same number Secretariat recieved on the sheets for his Belmont Stakes win 16 years earlier.....
Both horses were fast on everyone's figs.

DrugS, I think you have hit on the point of my question/comment. To think that Easy Goer (while an incredible horse) received the same number as probably the single greatest performance in the history of the sport, makes me question the "soundness", for lack of a better word, of the speed figures over several generations of horses...
