Trump 2,741 Report post Posted January 24, 2020 I read where the International Federation of Horse Racing have released their list of the Top 100 Group 1 horse races for 3yo+ in 2019. Australia had 20 races on the list, which did not include either Melb or Caul Cups. The list is based on the ratings of the first four horses over the line. NZ did not have one race in the Top 100. I wonder how many NZ Bred horses filled the placings in those Top 100 races? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how many NZ Bred horses filled the placings in those Top 100 races? Haven't looked at list but as for NZ breds in placings , at a guess , a fairly good score in OZ 1600 metres plus , a not too bad score HK 1600 plus and absolutely none in any other of the races anywhere else in world as Singapore wouldn't have a race in top 1000 nowdays .

Cox Plate at 9 , out top four Enable won 2 , 1 off layoff and was second in top one the Arc . Pretty decent racemare that one .

Trump 2,741 Report post Posted January 25, 2020 I think of the 20 Aust races in the top 100, NZ blood would feature quite prominently in the top 4 in each race. Also in HK. If I get time I’ll check on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
