Lorenzaccio (horse)[edit]

(

... that the Triple Crown winner Nijinsky lost the 1970 Champion Stakes by three-quarters of a length to the 100/7 long-shot Lorenzaccio?

Comment: Not a self-nom. --PFHLai (talk) 14:32, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Created by Tigerboy1966 (talk). Nominated by PFHLai (talk) at 14:32, 21 September 2013 (UTC).

Article - created new on 18 September, so new enough; 5631 characters of readable prose, so long enough; neutral; at least one inline citation to every paragraph; no copy vios detected using earwig and running some others through duplication detector; assessed as start class.
Hook - within length criteria at 133 characters; correctly formatted; correctly cited/supported by refs #6 (AGF) and #9 in 'five-year-old season' section; and I find horse racing/pedigree articles interesting!
QPQ not required as not a self nom; no image.

AGF tick as I can only check one of the refs. SagaciousPhil - Chat 09:19, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
