Najran is a world record holder with Dr. Fager. It is that simple. The original poster needs to add Najran.

As for the Bid and Secretariat, the Bid could never be Secretariat, because Secretariat pulled off the toughest feat in the sport. He won the triple crown. The Bid couldn't get it done. There are no excuses when talking about greatness either. You either get it done or you don't.
yeah, i'm sure secretariats five losses were 'getting it done'...

as for the original poster, take up your issues with his question with him. i see no problem with only putting dr fager up there, since dr fager is the only one to break the mile record while carrying 134 pounds.
