Seriously, what was so great about either Curlins preakness or RA for that matter? What was so special about the BC Classic last year, as a horse race effort that is.
Not much.

Since I love closers, I've got to add Street Sense in the 2007 Kentucky Derby, and Mine That Bird in the 2009 Kentucky Derby.

And then there's Kip Deville's 2007 BC Mile. I loved that horse.

Surfsides Clark.... You dont here anything about this, but she ran a 116 beyer setting ALL THE PACE, beating males handily. I think this is easily as good as any single race Zenyatta or Rachel have run.

Those weren't very good males though. I'm skeptical of that number.

Nice filly though.

Workforce's performance in the Epsom Derby a short time ago was spectacular. That looks to be a true superstar to me.
