Greatest Standardbred racehourse in history. I got goose bumps when I watched this race.

I have pictures of him in my photo album that a got from my grandfather, and he got them somewhere, I dont remember. He's a pretty cool horse.

@themightyeythain IMO... and I'm Australian (awaiting the birth of both a mare in foal to Christian Cullen and a mare in foal to Somebeachsomewere), Christian Cullen for raw talent is the bst horse I've seen. He may not have been able to match it with this horse over a mile but anything over 2000m.... CC was the greatest. JMO.

[bgardiner2000]

@themightyeythain It's really not that different. Aside from the NZ Cup what are the other big 2 m races? I guess the best form line could be drawn through Mr Feelgood, who was a classic winning juvi in the states & paced 1:49 at 3. I think any of the Miracle Mile runners could run sub 1:50. In the mile Ruthmussen got away with a 29.2 2nd qter. She only had to run 28.5 ro run a 1:49.5 She did that to win the race. No-one gets the $300K for leading them up & letting someone else run a fast time.

the day he did this the track wasn't lightning fast this is the greatest horse to set foot on the track bar none.

[PlaYah1979]

He is the big red of harness racing!!!

[howardm74]

A Freak! Greatest pacer to ever step foot on a track! Maybe greatest horse ever trotter or pacer!

[youbad67]

He makes it look so easy. As for your coment ramon3964, if you owned him you would retire him too, makes more money breeding than racing, and it's safer as well as more fun, for the horse i mean.

[BigBrown2332]

Worlds best and best ever till this day and maybe forever.

[danalimb]

jug????bum

[PlaYah1979]

What a monster!!! Horses like him come along every 20 years or so...He might be in a league of his own though...Never seen a horse do it with such ease

[Cabaret43]

Booked to Rainbow Blue this year...2011 could be interesting ya think?

[Cabaret43]

Happy Birthday Beach...turned 4 today...the best ever...just my opinion

[Tampaslice]

This horse is the modern day Niatross! Perect!

[Cabaret43]

is he the best ever?...let the debate rage on....

[Cabaret43]

still cant understand why so many people had a hate on for this horse...cuz he skipped the Jug?...if thats the reason then hate MacGrath not the horse...booked plans to the Jug myself and was pissed he wasnt gonna be there...but the Jug wasnt in there plan...all the bullshit that he was dodging Art Official is just ignorance....to all the haters out there i hate to break it to you but you might have seen the best of all time.,,in doubt?...check the Mead Pace final and the OSS Superfinal...

[USHorseman]

I just cannot get over this win. Such an impressive win by a great pacer...

[ramon3964]

I remember Niatross from 1980. This horse will also live in history. Too bad he was retired yesterday.

[redredred978]

Super horse

[jdubmchs]

im rly tentative to make this claim

but

he is the greatest pacer i have ever seen

[BIGRED224FOREVER]

THAT WAS AWSOME! when cambest did it it was in a time trial with heavy urging , this was all alone from midpoint of 1st quarter ...... you can hate on em all ya want. This horse is a helluva pacing machine and would give any horse ever all they could handle.

[cwillis61]

If someone ever drags this horse down to the 3/4 in 1:18 I believe he'll go in 45 and a piece. Don't take this horse for granted. In history we won't see many more like him. He's a true freak. Enjoy him while we can. I get goose bumps every time I watch him go.

[caperboy1973]

wow!! what else can you say,truly the best animal we will see in a very long time awesome guy's take care..

[vgrash]

WOW! What an fabulous horse! Congratulations to his connections.

[ajam7x]
