You seem to think this is not a slow group. That's fine, but again, you offer no reason why other than you disagree. Then you go on to use the figs in your arguement, but it all looks foolish, because you don't know what you are talking about. Do yourself a favor and read a book or something on how someone comes up with a speed figure. It'll help your understanding of them a lot more and you'll see why your arguement is pretty pointless right now.
In a nutshell, you don't know either right? I offered a lot of reasons to why I disagree. My argument was very logical. Pace makes the race, and since BSFs do not take pace into account...well.

Visionaire got a higher number in the Gotham than Pyro got in the Risen Star when Pyro is the superior animal. That speaks volumes in itself. Pyro should be in the 100+ range if he gets some pace to run at next out, which=not slow.

Sierra Sunset got a 99 when many of these horses will beat up on him. That speaks volumes about how talented this crop really is... I don't even know if that horse would be in my top 10 right now.
