As it stands, it should be an fair match between the two to decide the championship, considering that both have won at 7f on the synthetic at SA during the winter (unlike Big Brown and Curlin, neither of whom have raced over AW stuff).
The F&M Sprint was designed to be 7 furlongs but because Monmouth couldn't accomodate 7 furlongs in 2007, they ran it at six.

You're right about Intangaroo though, she is having an outstanding year. Dearest Trickski may have something to say about the BC F&M Sprint as well.
