It's mind boggling that virtually all of the lists have, where ranked, Ouija Board toward the top but no mention of Pride. I can only imagine this is because Pride hasn't raced in the US, as on the book it is very difficult to conclude that OB is better than Pride - for all that I love Ouija. In my mind Pride is the best filly/mare to have raced on turf since Bosra Sham.
George Washington
Invasor
Rail Link
Bernardini
Barbaro
David Junior
Hurricane Run
Dylan Thomas
Shirocco
Pride
Honorable mention to Discreet Cat who has yet to achieve as much as those above, but who is almost certainly capable of doing so.
