Black Caviar - All Career Wins 25/25 - 15 X G1s - Undefeated Champion Of The Turf

[@mattiebee99]

RIP Black Caviar. The best sprinter the world has ever seen.

[@kurman4749]

I'm British and I have to say that Black Caviar is the greatest sprinter I've ever seen, and I've been following horse racing since 1961. In all those years, there has been nothing in Europe to compare with this incredible horse. 25 wins from 25 races says it all.

[@bgardiner2000]

It’s a shame she wasn’t at her best at Royal Ascot. I feel like the racing public were robbed of a spectacle and unfortunately there’s those with limited racing faculty that think it was indicative of her capability

[@PinkWorldChamp]

Sad to see her go :(

[@davidclarke9835]

The finest in my 60 odd years. She could do 3 sub 10 second furlongs in a row and have everyone beat a long way out. Was never bottomed out. Poetry.

[@bgardiner2000]

@@davidclarke9835 not sure about 3 sub 10s in a row, but she was incredible. It’s a shame Luke Nolan eased her up to extent he did in the Newmarket as she’d hold both the 5 and 6F track records at Flemington.

[@flamingfrancis]

@@bgardiner2000 If one studies virtually all of her perfomances there are at least three things that are very obvious. Firstly she had an enormous will to win evinced in the fact that Hay List beccame a passenger so many times. Hay List was no slouch. Secondly, Nolan never does any more than to show the whip. Thirdly, Nolan almost always slows, sometimes canters, when he thinks they are home showing respect that the job is done. What happened at Epsom also showed evidence of the latter, especially when trainer (and jockey?) knew she had sustained the injury to rear leg pre race. The independent vet's report on that injury can be found. A great Champion.

[@Pathfinder322]

We’ve since had a few other champions come along and I must admit I’ve seriously underestimated how good BC was .. after watching this video you realise that she did things that no other horse could do.. extremely high cruising speed, she was so confident, it didn’t matter how crowded she was.. where most horses would fade under pressure she pretty much just kept cruising.. it also seemed like it didn’t really matter where she landed or missed the start , she’d just be near the front effortlessly .. she’d be 5 wide last and within 50 meters she’d be in front with her head on her chest.. true legend

I think Black Caviar in that Goodwood - she didn’t beat champions but they were good horses - and it was literally a track gallop. Just strolled around for 1200m like it was a pipe opener. To be able to do that against very good horses is mental.

[@bgardiner2000]

In the race before that in Adelaide, the Robert Sangster Stakes, she beat a mare from Perth called Power Princess... who was a very good sprinting mare who held the 1000m distaff record at Ascot in Perth. She went to Adelaide in very good form... Black Caviar beat her by 5L... and was literally never out of second gear. Very few people really understand the depth of Australia's sprinting ranks... for a horse to remain unbeaten like she did they need to be a lot better than the opposition, which of course she was.

[@marcusaurelius4360]

"Have a look at Hay List, he's beaten the rest of them by an absolute furlong and she's towelled him again." Haha. What an incredible horse, just stunning.

[@0077725]

To be fair, he eased up because typically she runs out races. But because she suffered not only bad bruising, but TORE two muscles during the race, she started to pull up a lot quicker. Without those injuries, it isn't as close. Courageous for the horse to still win despite being injured.

[@barryyoung948]

any track records for the wonder sprinter of the world ?

[@bgardiner2000]

After returning from the UK she raced first up and won her third Lightning Stakes over 5F. The track record was held by a very good sprinter called Special in 1988. In the 90’s they changed the watering rules in Australia to prevent injury from racing on too hard tracks. Special’s time was 55.5… they only recorded times to 1 decimal point in those days. It was widely accepted that the track records set before the changes to the watering rules would never be beaten. In the 2012 Lightning Stakes black Caviar beat Hay List, running a sectional in 9.98 secs. She effectively equalled the track record running 55.54. In 2013, first up and eased down she ran 55.45. Had Nolan rode her out in the Newmarket she would have eclipsed the6F track record as well, while setting a distaff weight carrying record, in a race that had been run for 136 years… she was a phenom

[@elmsavannah8642]

She won so many of these races cruising or geared down. The Ascot race was one of few I can remember her really fighting at the end… but she did! I think not chasing the flash or putting a lot of emphasis on setting records (other than winning) probably helped the longevity of her career.

[@flamingfrancis]

[@craigseddon4884]

The Ascot performance robbed the fans of what could have been. We could have had a world tour but the result shook the connections enough pull any plans and take her back to Aus. She was way off (about 8 lengths) the normal pace, 12 lengths off the record and fortunate that it was a poor crop that year. Society Rock was decent depending if he decided to run or not, he won the previous year but it was a really poor time. But if BC ran that race any year since with a one minute fourteen second time she'd only have won in 2021. It why despite being well supported on the day and the crowd cheer her home to keep her unbeaten record. You will still find some fans smirk if you mention Black Caviar in the same breath as Frankel.

[@wrwosster89076]

“Some fans” ???

It was a poor run that day but definitely out of character for her. Distance of travel and a long campaign had to have affected her performance. Frankel was a champion, no doubt. Both different horses and the very best at their preferred distances.

[@annabelleconnelly7418]

I read an article, and her trainer said she had torn two muscles in that race. That she had pulled up very sore at the end, if it was true then that also explains why it wasn't her best run.

Continuous forced breeding was the direct cause of Black caviar's death. Even if the mare is unreceptive to the stallion, she is restrained in different ways so as to not injure the stallion or move away from him as in nature. Basically it can be the equivalent to bondage rape in humans. Sadly in this industry money talks , and the industry doesnt recognise this fact.
