is blacks a fake the greatest of all time ?

with his record i would have to say he is

Greatest what? Aust only pacer or Aust/NZ ? or in the world ?

If Interdominions are the benchmark, then YES bcos he has the Greatest record by far and his nearest rival in that regaurd, Our Sir Vancelot wouldn't have got near Blacks A Fake imo.
Having said that, how many Victoria Cups, Hunter Cups, Miracle Miles have BAF won ? and also has not raced in NZ.
With out a Doubt, BEST pacer in his era but as always it's too hard to compare pacers in different eras although i've done it myself by saying he's superior to Our Sir Vancelot.

i was talking about here in australia but we can add new zealand

I agree it's impossible to compare different eras, but he's no doubt the best in the last 10-15 years IMO...

He got beaten a metre or two in a Miracle Mile running 2nd and has won a Victoria Cup and also a Hunter Cup when off 30m, rating sub 1:59 over 3150m.. still to my mind a better win then Elsu... A horse that has won 61 of 82 starts and only unplaced 6 times shows the champion he is..

He's also won an open age Group 1 race in every year since 2006..
