Frankel
prepared the Q-horse that day in the match race which was in the 1970-72 period. They only went a quarter mile so it was all in favor of the smaller horse.
The Q-horse won the race on the break (Chirawiri) and the great T-bred sprinter was closing, but it was over.
Funny thing is that Frankle convinced the Q-horse people to try a T-bred at 870 yds vs. a Q-horse and wound up winning BOTH match races.
