@vividsphinx Watto is to big of a coward to go into the army my friend. He has to go to school to even build a house. I learned that growing up on the side while I went to high school, Went into the Marine Corps at 19 yrs. Oh well, somes got it and some don't. (smile)

Sorry! :) More to say. Phar Lap would have gone on to equal or exceed Makybe's record of three Melbourne Cup wins. I mean, there were no horses to challenge him, so what could prevent him from taking away as many Cups as he could? The reason he lost his second, was because of the scandolous amount of weight heaped on him for that race. It was said by experts that it was a miracle he didn't break down, and it was also admitted that the weight was to ensure he wouldn't win.

It looks to me like Phar Lap won with greater ease than even the great Diva did in any of her Cups. I say ease, because the Diva looked exhausted, when compared with Phar Lap.

No he didn't. He came 8th in 1931 carrying 10 stone 10. No horse has carried as much in the Melbourne Cup since.
And as for the American making rediculous comments, you are part of the reason the rest of the world can't stand Americans. As for the Australians, you idiots are part of the reason the rest of the world thinks we are uneducated bogans and morons. You all need to grow up.

I didn't have enough words left to finish that last, so I'll do it now. As well as making it impossible for him to win the Melbourne Cup, they also refused to let him be scratched from the race. The truth was, that he wasn't allowed to win, but they wanted him there to draw the crowds.
