yes
I think Phar Lap
yes, people did win millions because of Phar Lap. He was such a magnificant horse.
Despite dominating the racing scene in Australia during a long and distinguished career, Phar Lap only won the Melbourne Cup once. In the four years of his racing career, he won 37 of 51 races he entered, including the Melbourne Cup in 1930. In that year and 1931, he won 14 races in a row.
Three.
Phar Lap won a Melbourne Cup, two Cox Plates, an AJC Derby, the Agua Caliente Handicap, and 19 other races. He is ranked #22 in the Top 100 U.S. Racehorses of the 20th Century, and inducted in to the Australian and New Zealand Racing Halls of Fame.
They added weight to the lead pad.
No, i think he got poisoned because some other opponent was worried that he would win.
Phar Lap was Australia's Seabiscuit. He was a national hero in that tiny island continent in the 1930s, winning 36 of his 41 races there. He then came to North America and won a distinguished race in Mexico. A few weeks later, he died from eating poisonous herbs while grazing, and there was a suspicion that he was poisoned by enemies who did not want to see him win more races in North America. http://museumvictoria.com.au/PharLap/

No, he did not win the Stanley Cup.
No Mexico will not win the world cup in 2010.
