1. Who do you consider the best 3 horses of all time? My vote goes to 1.) Secretariat, 2.) War Emblem, 3.) Affirmed

2. Would Alydar be considered the Best Horse To Have Never Won a triple crown race?

3. What horse is considered the best horse to ever breed (based on conbined race records of offspring)?

4. On a scale of 1 - 10, 1 means not difficult at all, and 10 means extremely difficult, what do you rank Afleet Alex's recovery at The Preakness?

5. Who is your favorite horse of all time? Mine is Afleet Alex (I know surprise surprise).

1. Secretariat
2. tough....but I'd say no Spectacular Bid comes to mind
3. couldn't tell you
4. 10
5. Silver Charm....that I've seen, The good Dr. Fager in legends and lore
