Commentator's best race was better than the best race of almost everyone on that list. Commentator beat St. Liam fair and square in the Whitney...when St. Liam beat him, his trainer employed a pair of rabbits.

However, nothing is as indefensible as suggesting Perfect Drift was better than Commentator. That is about as bad an opinion as I have ever seen.

Wow. The only thing I find amazing is that it has taken me this long to put you on ignore.

Invasor, Mineshaft, Candy Ride better than the group listed, Especially Candy Ride who I put in the the Dubai Millennium, Ghostzapper conversation.

St Liam, and Curlin are in between being in that group and better than
