Miracle Mile 2024, Chariots of Fire and MM Qualifying Races

Wow haven't the Stewart/Tonkin horses lost a leg since they became aware of the treatment rules !

[trish]

Yes it seems that way, doesn't it.

Easily the weakest MM field in my lifetime !

G'day Rick, I agree we have had stronger MM Fields, but at least one weaker than this comes to mind and that would be Bay Foyle's edition in the early seventies in my humble opinion. Bay Foyle was an exceptional juvenile and a very nice horse, but he won his races on his manners, not raw ability and the MM's results are usually influenced far more by raw talent than racing manners..

That MM was a bit of an anti-climax Dan but there were some Very good horses in it
At least this year we have champion in Leap To Fame in it - whether the mile really suits him is another matter
Although I think it ridiculous that Dreaming got a gig, he may one day be considered something pretty special although once again I am not sure it will be for mile racing

Hi Manameisjeff $3.10 is challenging Leap To Fame $3.00 for favouritism!

Speak The Truth is $4.60. When STT (6th) last met LTF (1st) 3mths ago in the Inter, he was $41 while LTF was $2.30

Nobody likes the horse that has won 10 in a row. Will the lack of a break play against him?

I wonder whether we have ever had a MM where three runners have won their previous 5 starts?

Could Spirit Of St Louis finish 2nd in three straight MM's?

[Jasper]

I think he has a real shot at winning it this year re feeling that it might be a roughies year.

My problem with the MM and all mile racing is how important barrier draws can be
What odds would Leap To Fame be if he had drawn 2?
Whatever became of the angled mobile barrier experiment?
