  • Kingston town was a rare horse on any continent,he won group races at ever distance from 3/4 mile to 2 mile , INCREDIBLE.Always no 1 in my book.
  • 1.Phar Lap 2.Makybe Diva 3.Kinston Town 4.Winx 5.Black Caviar
  • PHAR LAP IS A NUMBER ONE,,BLACK CAVIAR IS A SECOND AND WINX IS A THIRD...FROM PANAMA CONGRATULATIONS AUSTRALIA FOR THIS GREATS HORSES
  • Phar Lap is the greatest horse to race in Australia. Between 25/10/30 & 08/11/30 he won the Cox Plate, MacKinnon Stakes and Melbourne Cup, along with two other group races. Something well beyond the horses above him on this list.
  • Phar Lap at 3 lol. Ran all races to 3200 metres, 27 Group 1 wins, equal 1st with Tulloch. Several of these Group 1's, have been adjusted to shorter distances than he originally ran. Put them all into a stayers race & he'd win easily. 3rd what great odds for punters lol.
  • @glenn8272
    I know So you think was born in NZ but no other Australian trained and owned (before moving to Ballydoyle) has won 5 Group 1's in Australia and 5 group 1's in Europe and raced against and beat the best in the world. A true star!
  • My wife and I love Black Caviar and Winx and we share a special and rare bond with them. Black Caviar was born on my birthday and Winx was born on my wifes birthday Amen
  • @kmc3851
    Australia has had a bounty of exceptional horses.
  • Phar Lap definitely #1. Vain is the best sprinter / miler I have seen.
  • Not only was Pharlap a brilliant race horse, that horse helped ease the depression in many households.
  • Tulloch was a superstar and in the argument, with Phar Lap, as Australia's greatest
  • Makybe Diva deserves a higher rank than fifth. She won most of the major races including a Cox Plate, and still has the Australian record time over 2000 meters. She was a more versatile horse than Winx or Black Caviar that raced over a short range of distances. Though I love Winx, I would have the Diva first then Winx, Blackcaviar, phar lap
  • 5 who aren’t there :Tulloch, Octaganol,from the old days-Wakeful, Carbine ,Bernborough to name a few gloaming was a NZ horse as well
  • My list of the greatest five Australian racehorses: 1. Phar Lap 2.Winx 3.Carbine 4.Tulloch 5.Black Caviar Seriously considered/knocking on the door Kingston Town Makybe Diva Gunsynd Bernborough Tobin Bronze Manikato Plus a number of other great horses.
  • Again a very good list. Tulloch maybe in there somewhere but like, who do you replace
