This is absolutely the worst top 10 list I have ever seen. I have to admit I'm glad it was posted though because it is hilarious.

Funny Cide--well hes washed up and will show up once in a while

Naughy nyer---top class ny bred and ny stakes horse. But the Woodward puhhhlease

Wild Desert-- a mirage from frankel/dutrow into making some believe he would turn into a top class horse after Canada

Flower Alley--wonderful great horse a true Grade 1 performer, but just didnt come back the same FLower Alley

Andromedas Hero---a first class plodder but couldnt win a damn race

suave--didnt run a lick that day, was probably a Grade 2 horse at best

flower alley jerry?????????? LOL cmon severly overrated!

when I first saw this thread, I have to be honest, I thought it was a joke, just aimed at getting some laughs.

to see you know defending it makes it even funnier. good work.

that's why I thought it was intended as a joke. why would a top ten list have eleven horses?

but yeah your point is well taken, to put Admire Moon, who just won a $5 million dollar turf race against the best in the world on the same level as Curlin? and below Rags To Riches? its hard to write such comedy.

Well the eleven horses thing didn't bother me, as awhile back I had a (/) on my fifth spot for my Derby horses. It's usually used when someone is really having a hard time figuring out that very bottom spot. But yes, a twice race three year old on even terms with a grade I winning monster.

If this list were a horse in a race, the DRF comments would say "no thanks; toss."

Why would nightmare affair be on there? What telling expose on the validity on the list Curlin is a legit Ky Derby horse and top 3 yr old? Admire Moon is a well traveled handicap horse in Japan who won in Dubai? Whats the problem?

Why on Earth would Curlin be on par with Admire Moon?!

My list is only slightly more absurd.

I don't even know why I'm trying to reason. It's like PG1985 redux.

Yep, pretty much.
