Talk:List of millionaire racehorses in Australia

message: Good work on the list, but I do have a question about the list. What are the criteria?
For example horses like Delta Blues, Pop rock etc have won over a million dollars in prizemoney in Australia - no problems there.
However horses like Elegant Fashion won LESS than $1M in Australia ($842,600 to be exact)the rest was all won in Hong Hong..... If she is going to be included then what about horses like Subscribe who won $64,000 in Australia before being sold to Hong Kong and winning over a million as Vengeance of Rain? You could go even further - Silent witness never won any money in Australia (only a trial for David Hall) before being sold.
The criteria for inclusion needs to be consistent, this is an encyclopedia after all.

message: A list of 300 horses in rank order is hardly sustainable (or useful), unless an editor volunteers to take on the page as a full-time project. It would have to be updated after almost every major race. Much better to trim it down to a top 20, which can easily be supported by references.
The lede needs to say what the article is, because I'm confused. Horses trained in Australia? Prize money won in Australia? What's the score with the likes of Americain and So You Think who were trained in Australia for part of their career? Are overseas earnings included?  Tigerboy1966  10:21, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with your comment of 2012, this page looks like it is unsustainable and it shows. It would be better being a top 20. Mind you, with inflation and the huge money attached to some specific races now days, do racing followers place any regard in a highest stake money earner list ?
