Winning the Cigar and BC sprint is as unlikely as winning the Carter and BC Turf but the Carter and BC Sprint are really the only sprint wins. That being said everything depends on the competition. If another horse were to win the Count Fleet, Forgeo, De Francis, Bing Crosby, Phoenix, and Vosburgh and didn't compete in the BC Sprint (maybe injured) who is the champion sprinter?
Better arguement is if Horse wins Met, Cigar and BC Sprint without another Gr 1. sprint win vs. above horse?
