The Index
84 of the 1,124 standardbreds carrying a record page have a name beginning with M. 26 of them won at least one race at the track, and 82 carry a surviving winning time. Opening a name gives every charted start behind these figures.
The busiest of them is Marc My Speed, with 12 charted starts and no win. The records on this page run from 2001 to 2011, which is the span the surviving programs cover for these names rather than the span the track itself raced.
Questions about the M records
Did these horses race across several seasons?
48 appear in a single season and 36 in more than one. A regional meeting draws stables in for a condition that suits a horse and loses them again once the class no longer does.
How do I read an entry on this page?
The number of charted starts, the horse's name as the programs printed it, and then its wins, its best surviving mile where one exists, and the seasons it appears in. Opening a name gives every start behind those figures.
How many records does M hold?
84 horses whose name begins with the letter M, out of 1,124 in the index as a whole and 2,864 names appearing anywhere in the surviving programs. Each one opens its own record of charted starts.
Who has the most charted starts under M?
Marc My Speed, with 12 charted starts and no win, best mile 2:01.2. The rows on this page are ordered by charted starts for that reason rather than alphabetically.
What is the quickest mile on this page?
1:53.4, by Markalan A. 82 horses on this page carry a surviving winning time at all; for the rest the charts record starts and finishes without one.
Did most M horses win a race here?
26 of 84. Most horses in any part of this index raced without winning, which is what a real meeting looks like rather than a highlights reel.
