Adam Hamilton just mentioned it is the 7th fastest mile in the World
ps That 2yo College Chapel was impressive +++ running 1.52 at its second start
pps Field Marshall has the pedigree to be a stallion of the future?

Have to feel for Soho Tribeca that was a mammoth run but take nothing away from Field Marshall his last 800m will be interesting. I read an article with quotes from Tim Butt saying how he skipped the Inter and Hunter Cup on purpose and its a masterstroke to deliver this victory. Kung Fu has a future if he can maintain this form.
Lennys run just about on par with the run behind Have Faith In Me a couple years ago, I think it goes to show we have a fantastic crop of Grand Circuit horses at the moment.
You can find the list in www.classicfamilies.net
Go to Performers, then find the all time 1:48 performers, and the list is there.
It's interesting to see where some of the well promoted North American stallions fit on the list !
When you convert the time to imperial and fifths like the Americans do it becomes 1.46.4 so it's equal third fastest. With US times .1 is 1/5 (the fraction one fifth) so a decimal time of 1.46.9 would become 1.46.4 (the .4 means four fifths) or it would be rounded up to 1.47.0, I'm not sure if they round up though. . People forget this. You will notice on the sub 1.48 performers list no time ran in the US or Canada will end in higher than .4 because the .4 means 4/5ths. So the decimal system is robbing our horses of some records.
Don't die wondering !
So far Art Official, For A Reason, Major In Art (Brallos Pass ), Santanna Blue Chip have not set the world on fire but it is still reasonably early days for them
and we are still to see with Follow The Stars, Restrepo, and JK Endofanera
as far as Foreal's family (N54), it gained prominence thanks to the males Jay Bees Fella in the 80's, Bogan Fella in the 90's, Tribute (and Foreal) last decade and now My Field Marshall
It would be disappointing if Art Major's line did not continue but Artsplace had several siring sons
