That's fair enough. If I write in essay form, it is so that my points are explained and supported by evidence. Some will appreciate this style while others will lose interest very quickly. I fall into both camps depending on the topic and my energy levels.
If it helps, here are brief summaries in bullet-point form.
*Quevega can be lauded for consistency and soundness but her winning multiple mares' hurdles carries less kudos than had she taken on the boys.
*Novice races are good.
*We can not be certain of how others might have behaved in purely hypothetical circumstances.
*Just as most flat horses have a stamina range of two furlongs or greater, jumps horses have a range of at least half a mile.
*It is unlikely The New One would have been champion twenty furlong horse three years in a row as he would have needed to repeatedly beat a bunch of horses more talented than himself.
*There is no such thing as a specialist twenty furlong champion. Not even among the 422 horses who could possibly fit the bill.
*I have named 38 horses who would have plausibly started at 10/1 or shorter in a Champion Chase or Gold Cup the year they were in the Ryanair.
