It's a tough question to answer because it really boils down to what you value in a horse.

Some people probably don't know that Formal Gold won his debut by 19 lengths with a record debut Beyer of 112.

Some people probably don't know that FG was only a pace factor in that Dubai World Cup race won by the globetrotting turf horse Singspeil off of a layoff.

There was a great FG and an ordinary FG.
Has anyone found this race online?

When is the last time you've seen a horse run a 126 and lose?! Apparently this was all before the bounce theory too..
