times does not lie...the fact that 紅衣醒神 ran more than 15 times at Shatin 1,200m and never once broke 1:08 (the record is 1:07.5) proves that this corp of sprinters is more inferior than what we used to have...
even 無敵神駒 did it twice...the track is definitely faster now (or at least not slower than then), and (unlike 1,600m and 2,000m) can't really say that slow tempo is common for a 1,200m race...
For the record:
紅衣醒神's best time is 1:08:10
幸福指數's best time is 1:08:08
