We just have to put up with the disgrace, and do the best for our horse we love...

Talking about bits of Phar Lap don't forget that Te Papa has his skeleton.

Well it's the most likely senario. The strapper who loved the horse, and was getting all excited like a little girl at the prospect of racing the horse in America... and forgot to put the lid back on. PharLap overdosed and died.

Besides Phar Lap was a *New Zealand* horse, despite hungry buggers who like to claim everything as their own...
Decades after his death, Phar Lap remains Australia's most famous racehorse: an ungainly chestnut gelding whose great stamina helped him win 37 of his 51 races between 1929 and 1932. Phar Lap was born in New Zealand and purchased for the bargain price of 160 pounds by trainer Harry Telford and American owner Dale Davis in 1927. The horse repaid them by winning over 66,000 pounds in purse money during his career. Phar Lap was the favorite in the prestigious Melbourne Cup race three times, winning in 1930 and becoming a national hero in the process. After the 1931 Cup he was shipped to America to face new competition for bigger stakes. He won his first race, at Agua Calienti in Mexico, but never raced again: in April of 1932 he died suddenly at a ranch in California.

Born in New Zealand but the mare was sired in australia so it would not be brain dead by NZ stallions

MELBOURNE. - Racing experts are split over claims that new evidence solves the mystery of the death in 1932 of the legendary racehorse Phar Lap.

Scientists say the identification of arsenic in samples of Phar Lap's hair establishes that the champion racehorse was poisoned.

But racing insiders say the clai ...[text shortened]... n deliberately poisoned as he prepared to take on the United States racing scene.-AAP
Holy crap!! I think this is the first post from you that doesn't mention and somehow tie Bush to the subject at hand.

Amazing, I think you are actually getting somewhere.
