New irrelevance of Sires' lists

Over the years we have noticed that, if a sire had the winner of a certain race, it had a good chance of winning a category, eg. The sire of the Slipper is almost assured of 2yo Premier sire. Now we see Snitzel has an almost certain unbeatable lead in the General Sires list. Although he may have indeed won it anyway with numbers and class, should we be applauding the Champion Sire in October of the season? Messara sure got his wish when he and his cohorts suggested this over-prizemonied over-hyped addition to the Spring carnival.
JMPO, why not run a "Championship" Spring day, over all various distances? I don't want to get to Syd vs Melb, but Derby day in Melb is just that, races for sprinters, milers, stayers and fixed sex races.
MPO is there shouldn't be conflict between Syd and Melb, there should be collusion and program for progression from Syd to Melb in Spring.
Cut the c**p, Spring/Summer is Syd to Melb to Perth, why not get together to make one flow to the other?
The Everest was a good race, but two points. Firstly, why have a "consolation" over the same distance. We now have questions re winner of the consolation running faster than the main race. Good managers don't let this happen. What if a consolation for Melb Cup, over same distance and same day, resulted in consolation winner outruns the Cup winner. I have suggested a consolation Race for Cup, but over 2900/3000m. The second point is that truthfully this first edition was only a very, very good sprint race that could have occurred at Randwick, Flemington or Perth carnival.
Over to you all fr comment.
Could be in Racing section, but my initial point, this race have scewiffed any semblance of common sense for the General Sires' Premiership, and the brood mare lists as well.

Might point out he didn't sire the winner of the Slipper yet was champion 2yo sire last season.  He does it his way.  Lots of runners lots of winners and lots of black type winners.  Other sires serve the same amount of mares and in past seasons certainly better quality mares also so this boy for some reason has found what he likes and is doing extremely well for all involved.

He has the ability to get stakes winners and winners from a diverse and wide pedigree range , His success in the sales ring cannot be under estimated as his progeny get to the right educational hands . His own studs faith and publicity arm also was a huge tick for him in the past . ! Can't see an heir apparent for a few years , maybe NASD or Sebring .

And yet if you purely judged him by the quality of his foals' legs you would question what you see. Just goes to show conformation is not necessarily the ultimate determinant. Racehorses must have a TICKER & it seems Snitz transmits this. If this is so his mares are gold.

No more different to a staying sire with very few city winners but one major stayer who perhaps picks up the Cox plate (or Caulfield Cup)-Melbourne Cup in the spring and then the Australian Cup and BMW/Queen Elizabeth in the autumn.  Just the spring Cups double puts in more than the winner of the Everest gets!

Maybe so but the spring cups double is a massive achievement

The Everest is one sprint race

There is/will be one Winner of The Everest every year. How often does the Cups double happen? Was Ethereal the last one to achieve the Cups double feat?

The Everest definitely tips the advantage to sprinter producing sires in terms of winning the Champion Sire title.

Possible the doubles and even all the staying races have been spread out since the beginning of multiple stayers coming from overseas.  It's about 5 to 12 any year now.  As they don't usually go for the Cup's double or return in the spring the change can be seen.
