- HORSES BORN AND BRED IN BRAZIL -
- XX CENTURY -
FINAL CLASSIFICATION OF THE 205 BEST HORSES FROM BRAZIL
BY LUIZ EDUARDO LAGES
LUIZ EDUARDO LAGES was the first, after a very
long time of studies, to publish one selection, with the classification of the
best horses born and bred in Brazil in the last century! But, he did even more,
selected 200 products from Brazil that started in the XX century, without doubt,
the more important in our development and evolution on the turf! His final
result is also considerate by many people around the world, the most a person
can do in this question, including a perfect analyse, very well detailed in this
very difficult case, the comparable of qualities between legends from the XX
century! But, Lages never included a simple sympathy, and should not answer in
some short moments, like so many people use and like to do. This needs very much
more time than to answer with a simple opinion, like so many turfmen have the
vicious to do. LAGES RANKING about horses from Brazil, is a serious work, after
many years of intensive investigation, a really research with all types of
inquires, from just a person neutral and that never played one simple cent in
racehorses for to not lose the power to be able to judge! His work, after all
kinds of observations and studies was the first and always was the more easy to
be acceptable in Brazil and by another international experts around the world.
Only this fact, proves very well why his site "Lages Homepage" is so popular
with the racing people all over the globe and his list the only published for
serious sites in the Internet, magazines and newspapers, in all different
mediums, from all type of turfs and countries, in all the five continents! The
text, as always in this site, was written by me, LUIZ EDUARDO LAGES, this time
about myself and the serious work, gaining lot of reputation like results, when
was the first to do one list about the best horses from last century! Sorry my
missing of modesty, but those things is really facts! And when is so, like all
the really facts, no one can contest!
BY LUIZ EDUARDO LAGES
It's very different than another sites
and all the publications that make question to write and say when they inquire
people about the best horses, even without any kind of science or demand
explanation.
In our site Lages Homepage the opinions is based on science and
proved with results! Otherwise any kind or sort of opinions does not have
scientific value!
In Lages Homepage, the facts are facts!

The historian LUIZ EDUARDO LAGES writes about thoroughbred breeding in Brazil, mostly in the Portuguese language and publish some of his tables. Here, he is with the champion French sire GHADEER, one of the greatest stallions ever based in Brazil, in the farm Fazenda Mondesir.
LUIZ EDUARDO LAGES visiting the Haras Santa Ana do Rio Grande, with the exceptional sire FALCON JET, that was one of the best of Brazil, unhappyly, prematurely disappeared. FALCON JET, born and bred in the same Haras Santa Ana do Rio Grande, district of Bagé, Rio Grande do Sul, was a son of the French sire GHADEER and the Swedish VICTRESS, by HORNBEAM.
LUIZ EDUARDO LAGES when visiting the Haras Santa Ana do Rio Grande, during many years "The Brazilian Champion", winning the respective statistics between the breeders and owners. Today, it continues shining in the top, between the best ones in the country.
The "Centre of Training Verde e Preto", belonging to the
Municipality of the city Teresópolis, in the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil,

many wealth, water springs of first quality, a shape establishment to breed,
initiate and prepare the race horse. It started with specific functions to
breed, with the name of "Haras Verde e Preto", proceeding from the "Stud Verde e
Preto", very traditional and shining many decades as owner, for long time, since
the decade of years 40, in the last century, always been one of the exponents in
the Brazilian Turf! The "Centre of Training Verde e Preto" is, without the
minimum doubt, one of the best of Brazil and the entire world. Another
advantage, the "training centre" is situated only 90 kilometers from the
"Hipódromo da Gávea", in the south zone of the town, called by many visitors
"The Wonderful City"! That is how the city of Rio de Janeiro is known all over
the world.
