Message: [QUOTE="Renegade, post: 2342113, member: 1928"] Don't usually post here and don't follow the horses much, but i've seen this "greatest cup never run" simulation and I have to ask WTF is the point? I don't admit to knowing a shitload about racing, but, was there ever really any doubt that Phar Lap was going to win? He's the most romanticized horse in Australian history, and considering it was at a time when the world was pretty shit with the depression and the after effects of ww1, I ask again, was there any point to this scenario? It is bleedingly obvious that Phar Lap was always going to be crowned winner, even though he's not Australia's most successful horse (huge leap of faith, I don't know how much he's won but I didn't think he won 3 MC's like the Diva, for one?). So, racing experts/enthusiasts, please try and explain to cynical me, the purpose of this? It just seems like a bunch of cliched shit. [/QUOTE]
