Fastest weekend runners: Flightline and everybody else

There's Flightline, then there's everybody else. That pretty much sums up the list of the weekend's fastest stakes runners. 

Pick your superlative to describe the 5-for-5 Flightline's 19 1/4-length blowout in Saturday's Grade 1 Pacific Classic. By the numbers, though, the 4-year-old colt trained by John Sadler earned a 117 Brisnet Speed Rating, a 126 Beyer Speed Figure from Daily Racing Form and a 152 TimeformUS Speed Figure.

Here are a couple of Twitter posts to put his accomplishment in perspective.

That's not to say there weren't other nice performances over the weekend. Country Grammer, the one who was closest to Flightline on Saturday, earned a 130 from TimeformUS. "I think he thinks he won," said his trainer, Bob Baffert.

And Olympiad got triple-digit figures from all three rating services for his bounce-back win in the Jockey Club Gold Cup (G1).

But Flightline's Pacific Classic, with Flavien Prat aboard, was incomparable – at least in recent years.

Here are the figures for the weekend's graded-stakes winners, with the highest Brisnet Speed Ratings, along with Beyer Speed Figures from Daily Racing Form and TimeformUS Speed Figures, where available.
