Gingertipster Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Re: Temple Stakes Very much like Zenyatta herself,;) By running against inferior rivals in uncompetitive races (in her case fillies), and producing a long list of 1's; it is possible to elevate a horse's reputation to a field way beyond its actual ability. Only an opinion of course, but I'm right.:tongue2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingertipster Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Re: Temple Stakes On 2008 form, Overdose can be rated just behind Marchand d'Or at his best. ie One of the best of his generation, no World beater and not the best sprinter of all time. On current form he's about Group 3 class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only an opinion of course, but I'm right.:tongue2 :tongue2:spank:drums I agree with you hes Group 2/3 class, he won the race that never was at Longchamp, but that race wa a farce, no way can he be rated one of the best of his generation when hes Won 2 pish group races out of 17 starts and the rest of the races hes Won were for peanuts against cart horses. Zenyatta did get a string of 11111111 going but her Breeders Cups runs showed her ability. You know I'm right :tongue2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlowRock Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Re: Temple Stakes Just a little remark about Overdoses time last time out, he did not break the course record there and the time has been changed later. Backed the winner so I am not dissapointed moneywise, but I would have loved to see a breathtaking run, what I saw was just sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
