4 Group 1's in Aust
4 Group 1's in NZ...show me how many Champions have done that on the all time list of Champions.
How many G1's did Paleface Adios and Pure Steel win in NZ?
Paleface won a Miracle Mile, no Inter but of course many many heats, no Hunter Cup.
Now "Jacko" the "Temora Terror" was a pin up horse of mine growing up, he was, is a legend and so was, is Steelo but sometimes something can pop up in your face and you dont realise you ARE watching a Champion.
Last night based on his CV and of course he should have at least 2-3 years to go, Christen Me was Christened a Champ!
The race wins are there!
+1
All BS aside Colin, Christen Me's resume is pretty impressive and it's very rare a horse can win the races mentioned by Ash either side of the ditch, I think that what a lot of people forget when classing a champion is the quality of the opposition that the horse is beating and at the moment it's the absolute cream of the crop, Longevity does play a part, I'll agree with that and if Christen Me is not already a champion, He's very close IMHO.
