I really don't think including this and the highest amount of second places have any place in these awards - Next it will be the most amount of unplaced runs in a season or the horse with the longest tail or nose- Awards should be for excellence at the highest level- It reminds me of USA School Awards where every kid in class gets some award so that they don't feel left out - Racing is about winning Graded races not giving an award to a 4yr old mare that took 15 runs to break her Maiden against the blind school on a Sand Track that can produce ridiculous winning margins - In 4 subsequent runs she has not troubled the judge -

But surely if you giving any such award the facts must be correct ?

Obviously but still the question is WHY "create" this nonsensical type of award?

What a joke. Biggest winning margin, I suppose a other way of Larry sucking up to the big boys and give his mate Joe S. some kind of recognition. Small things amuse small minds. Whatever....

But surely the award must go to the horse who won by the widest margin?
