Stardom Bound ran his final 1/16th of a mile in about 5 seconds. That is pretty amazing. He must have run his final 1/8th of a mile in about 10 seconds. That is unheard of for practically any horse, let alone a 2 year old.

However, you can't compare this to regular dirt. Polytrack plays more like grass when it comes to being able to run fast final 1/8ths and quarters.
