The Blood-Horse's
TOP 100(50) RACEHORSES of the 20th CENTURY
1998年末、米国ブラッドホース誌が非常に興味深い企画を催しました。それは20世紀におけるベスト100の競走馬を選出してしまおうというもの・・・。
アメリカ人が1番好きな競走馬・・・それはビッグレッド・・・マンノーウォー!
立木をなぎ倒すか如く直線で他馬を抜き去る姿はまるで戦艦!(名前通り)
また、アメリカの偉大なところは・・・これらベスト100の上位に選ばれた競走馬の血統が今も息づいているという事です。
我々日本人もこの事には非常に留意しなければならないでしょう。
**注** 表中Sexのc・・・牡馬、f・・・牝馬、g・・・セン馬を示します。賞金額は当時の額そのままです。
