i think secretariat was the best racehorse there ever was.....but to me dr. fager's record is the most impressive.
how many horses in the last 38 years have run a race at 8f? i'm guessing millions.....and most of them were not carrying 134 lbs.......yet his record still stands.

I agree...

I didn't see Cougar II's 11f in 2:11:0 on your list. Yes, it was on turf, but it was the fastest recorded at the distance on any surface at the time. All hail His Felinity!
