And who could forget Rapid Journey?
Adjusting for inflation his earnings would be approaching 800k in today's dollars!!
Must have been a mighty dog!!

Hi Michael, It would seem that Mile Bush High only raced in 1,2, or 3 dog fields when he won. But in saying that no doubting his ability:)

Hi Dale, I think El Grand Senor was a super dog. Yet you are right he is underated for some reason. So was Elite State a top dog but he is also underated. I really liked his father on mere ability as well. Just the Best probably wont go down as the greatest of all time BUT you double his starts and in my opinion, I believe many more people will be mentioning his name.

It seems every country (major) has the best of all time, probably best to say there were many champion dogs and how to define them as different or better is subjective, here is an american article on a great dog.

Hi Reece,
Quite remarkable to have Rapid Journey as the product of those two isnt it?

Hi Colin, that bitch looked sensational, thankyou for bringing her to my attention. Im not sure how up to date G-DATA but it amazes me how many champion butches dont breed on all that well, while the mediocre at best breed our new champions. Baffles me.
Do you have questions about greyhound racing?
