Never hit with a whip in any race. All 1 turn races were 44 half’s besides the one with a bad break and both 2 turn races were 45 half’s with plenty of gas in the tank

The sad thing about Flightline, if you can find one about this superhorse, is that he was so much better than the opposition that he was never pushed even close to the limit of his abilities.We will never know how fast he really was.

Highest level thoroughbred. Had a beautiful stride grabbed the surface . Only ran 6 times so hard to make him the greatest ever . But hard to imagine any horse beating him in that pacific classic ?

had he been whipped or pressed, it's logical to say he would ran a 1:58.xx mile and a quarter, and broke some other track records. Never touch with whip AND.... was taken in/taken hold in final strides in multiple races where he was near the track record. The front fractions of BCC, combined with his final 1/8 mile time tell anyone who follows that, how much of a freak Flightline was. We thought Point Given, Smarty Jones, Arrogate, Shared Belief, American Pharoah, Justify, etc were "freaks". After seeing Flightline, those other horses were elite. Flightline was a freak.

Horseracing is such a sidelight now compared to the old days because the minute the owners realize they've got a horse like this they immediately put them out to stud because they are worth 100 times more there than they are on the track, without any of the risks of racing. We will never again see those mythical, hero horses that transcend the sport and become household names because they are not even around long enough for the common man to realize they exist. American Pharoah properly cracked the mainstream consciousness and then was all gone and pastured about 4 months later. This guy might have genuinely been the most Secretariat-like American horse since the OG but we'll never REALLY know and nobody outside the blue-blooded world of racing even knows his name...because he only ever ran 6 times and only twice at proper classic distances before retirement. TWICE Disastrous for the sport. Modern economics ruins everything once again as it does with every facet of life now it seems.

Best horse since Big Red. Career wise, Secretariat better. If they have a series of races from 1 mile to 1.25 miles, I think Flightline wins as many as Secretariat. I think he was that good. It's a shame that they retire elite horses as soon as they (owners) discover they are elite.

His slowest 3/4 was under 1:10 and in the Classic, he and Life is Good ran BC Sprint time according to the electronic timer. His ability to sit just off a blazing pace and then finish the race like they went 1:12 instead of 1:08 for the first six furlongs, is the best I've ever seen.
