Where's the best horse to ever look though a bridle? Spectacular Bid!!!!

Very easy question.
Only one of those horses was awesome enough to put away a superstar like Sinister G, and still have enough left in the tank to nose out absolute freaks like Master David and Swingforthefences.
I don't think any of those other donkeys in the poll would have had a chance in the '04 Wood.

Where is Casino Drive & Commentator?

Perfect Drift?

Tapit -- gaining ground and picking up supporters . . .

Eric

funny cide beat empire maker, it's obviously him.

Tappit... hands down.

Tapit

I voted for Tapit cause Colonial Colony (swoon) wasn't in your list...

How does Funny Cide and Tapit get on the list?

You forgot:

Ghostzapper, Mineshaft, CIgar, Skip Away, Candy Ride, Dubai Millenium, Seattle Slew, Sunday Silence Easy Goer, Holly Bull, Point Given on the List

Did you say this with a straight face?

i voted for Funny Cide

Lighten up Bro.

I voted for Tapit since I could not find Dollar Bill on the list.

Too humble to vote for yourself?

he also missed saarland. it's unforgivable.

you're kidding right?:confused:

Since Easy Goer wasn't on the list, I voted Man O' War.

Voted for Man O' War. Tough to choose between him and Secretariat...In a race between them and Big Brown.. Would have to say Big Brown in 3rd..At this point anyhow. He would have to go on and win the Belmont by 20 lengths, and win the Breeders Cup against Curlin for me to put him past those two greats. I love the horse, but can't imagine him beating one of them.

Usually I don't take personal shots at people but Cannon Shell is a true idiot. How could he make a list like this and not include Zippy Chippy and Rick's Natural Star? Stupid.

I was between Zippy Chippy and man o war and decided we needed some old school horses included

Zippy Chippy/Man o war

Flank steak/ 20 oz. T-bone

Sarava

Birdstone

ok

Tapit

I actually had that one in the Wood Memorial
sorry

he was kinda short price at 25-1 +/-

Now that I think about it, Master David should be on that list.

if big brown won the belmont by 20, and beat curlin, you'd move him ahead of secretariat and man o war?
remarkable.

but what about Tapit?

oh, i'd definitely move him past tapit if he did the above. now, had tapit won the belmont by 20, and having beaten master david, he'd definitely move ahead of the two big reds.

LMAO

I'll never forget Master David ... :D

Well, would definately put him in second perhaps.. Don't know which I would put in 1st or 3rd :p

that's the funniest thing i've read all day.

Yes. I thought it was pretty obvious that each horse on the poll except for Man o'War and Secretariat was a horse that has been way over-hyped. I was always firmly in the Bernardini-is-over-hyped camp.

People have short memories. Bernardini was being showered with "one for the ages" accolades, too, similar to what we're hearing about Big Brown now. Thankfully Bernardini ran in the Breeder's Cup. We probably won't have that luxury with Big Brown.

--Dunbar

you are joking ? i hope. i can't believe funnycide and big brown are even in the survey. by the way bernardini beat mostly crap. the travers he won was the weakest field i ever saw and i've been going to it for 30 years. besides curlin , afleet alex is probably the best recent horse. if he doesn't get in trouble in the derby, he wins the TC. his preakness was awesome, i've never seen a horse recover and win like that .

You vote for Tapit or Curlin?

man of war. when any of these horse go 20 for 21. well they will never come close. they don't even run 20 times any more

best horse
 

you forgot a lot of horses on the list , but it doesn't matter cause secretariat was the best. Seabiscut should have been a least a nomination for the best heart category

people are actually voting for tapit
 

War admiral , citation, real horses- tapit was a half a pig to be considered best horse - people voting for him are to close to the glue factory
