that comes back to eary speed wins races on 99% of tracks aus wide, so to say eg and egs use it all up early well it won them plenty hasnt it??
alot of the vic track records are held by out and out champions, dogs who have made it at stud, some of the records have stood the test of times over many years, plan and simple egs isnt a strong dog, his final split is average but he is still running 25.50s at sandown, i got super strong dogs who wouldnt get close if hand slipped from the bend
im sure egs would also look super strong over 450 agaisnt slow dogs
big moose is another example, great dog, i still rate him very highly won what 48 races in tassie?? when he came over to the mainland he couldnt match it with the "best" but granted he came over for the top races and pushed el galo is brisbane. to date damek has failled against grade 5 dogs on the mainland.
im not bagging the dog i think he is a super animal, but the tags people put on them (not the owners or trainer) makes it hard for the dog because people judge them harshly on there performances. i have no doubt the dog is good enough to match it with the top dogs, but i dont think he would beat egs. egs is a dog from out of this world, no brett lee but the way he is going might end up the second best weve seen
but for kyleigh to suggest a tassie track record is worth more value then group 1s, im sorry thats the best dribble ove heard on here
