Twice investigated by the science community. The 1789 autopsy showed it had huge heart, lungs and hind-legs. The 2004 theoretical bio-mechanical analysis showed a perfect skeletal balance of speed ,endurance and strength!

Definitely the greatest all-time!

April 1, 1764 - February 26, 1789
Born of Marske (Grandson of the original Darley Arabian) out of Spilletta ( Grand-daughter of the original Godolphin Arabian)during the eclipse of April 1st, 1764.
see Wikipedia for details.
Won 18 of 18 (100% winning record!) without being wipped, encouraged or challenged, then retired for lack of competition!
Won by incredible distances ( 10 to 20 furlongs);
with ridiculous ease. In some races the rest of the field were classified as ;nowhere.;
His stud record is equally perfect!
An estimated (80 -95%) of modern thoroughbreds carry his genes. That is to say, that the modern racing industry is based on this horse.
