How about a little informal voting here to see where DT people who actually took the time to vote ranked some of the ones who have been discussed? At the risk of being ridiculed, here are some of mine with the current top 20 and a few others I feel are misplaced.
Secretariat Man O War Seattle Slew Affirmed Spectacular Bid Dr Fager Forego Count Fleet-fringe top 50, yeah, more like top 5 Citation- top 5 Kelso Anyone not have the above as 10? ______________________ Northern Dancer- I gave him 9 John Henry- 9 Sunday Silence- 9 Zenyatta- 9 Ruffian- 9 Alydar -9 Swaps- 9 or 10 Damascus- 9 or 10 Seabiscuit- tough one..9 __________ Goldlikova- I gave her 10. 3 BC and all those open G1 Cigar- 10 AP Indy- 8. Talented, better sire than compiled results Native Dancer- 9 because he never beat older horses Buckpasser- 10 Whirlaway- another tough one. 9 or 10 Barbaro- in the context of top 250, maybe a 6 Eight Belles- seriously, was 2nd in Ky Derby and that was her best. 3 Rachel Alexandra- best 3yo filly I have seen gets you a 9. Nashua-9 Proviso- top 100? 5 Colin- 9 Lost in the Fog- lost his only tough race. 5 Blind Luck- good 3yo filly, maybe 7 Ouija Board- underrated. Globe trotting mare almost won 3 BC. 9 ....oh there are just too many that raced in the last 5 years that are overrated. Almost all of these are champions of high class, but in the context of a "top 250 all time" they just don't measure up.
