I will have a stab at Shergar ... but may have the wrong decade or century !

Some great horses there Dave

Used to laugh at folk saying Frankel, then Winx are the best ever

Frankel maybe, but I’m not sure he’d beat any of the above as regularly as he beat his own rivals.

Thanks for BG record Muhti

I would point out that with his 17 wins 235k GBP at the same time Mill Reef was only beaten the twice, once in the 2000 and in france when My Swallow beat him in close finish
He won 12 of the 14 races 309k GBP to give an indication of the quality of races he won and BG races were carefully selected??

However 2 legends of the turf .

BG was rated 144 and MR 141
