What actually happened

On the racecourse, and in the ring

None of the below is used in the score. It is here so you can see the page and the horse side by side, which is the entire point of this exercise.

Record23 starts, 21 wins, 2 seconds
Group One winsNine, and rated 142, the highest-rated racehorse in the world
Prize moneyCareer earnings to dateUS$20.3m
Sale historyNever sold at public auction. His breeder never entered him in a sale and sold him privately after a jumpout at Levin. The price has never been disclosed.

This is the horse that makes the argument for us. His page is so bare that no pedigree system on earth would have flagged him, and the market agreed: he was never even catalogued. His dam was bought for NZ$500. Everything that made him the world's best sprinter is in how he moves, not in his page. That is exactly why we read the walk, the films and the value as well.

The score reads this horse's pedigree page as it stands today and nothing else. It is a score for the page, not a rating of the racehorse, and it is not a claim we picked them as yearlings. A horse's own black type is never counted in its own family. Prize money and prices are converted to US dollars at recent rates. Back to all eight
