Seattle's Top 10 horses

[cakes44]

This is absolutely the worst top 10 list I have ever seen. I have to admit I'm glad it was posted though because it is hilarious.

Funny Cide--well hes washed up and will show up once in a while

Naughy nyer---top class ny bred and ny stakes horse. But the Woodward puhhhlease

Wild Desert-- a mirage from frankel/dutrow into making some believe he would turn into a top class horse after Canada

Flower Alley--wonderful great horse a true Grade 1 performer, but just didnt come back the same FLower Alley

Andromedas Hero---a first class plodder but couldnt win a damn race

suave--didnt run a lick that day, was probably a Grade 2 horse at best

flower alley jerry?????????? LOL cmon severly overrated!

[Crown@club]

when I first saw this thread, I have to be honest, I thought it was a joke, just aimed at getting some laughs.

to see you know defending it makes it even funnier. good work.

That right there is a telling exposé on the validity of the list.

That's like me making a list of the best horses ever and saying
1. Secretariat
2. Man O War
3. Nightmare Affair/Citation

that's why I thought it was intended as a joke. why would a top ten list have eleven horses?

but yeah your point is well taken, to put Admire Moon, who just won a $5 million dollar turf race against the best in the world on the same level as Curlin? and below Rags To Riches? its hard to write such comedy.

Well the eleven horses thing didn't bother me, as awhile back I had a (/) on my fifth spot for my Derby horses. It's usually used when someone is really having a hard time figuring out that very bottom spot. But yes, a twice race three year old on even terms with a grade I winning monster.

If this list were a horse in a race, the DRF comments would say "no thanks; toss."

Why would nightmare affair be on there? What telling expose on the validity on the list Curlin is a legit Ky Derby horse and top 3 yr old? Admire Moon is a well traveled handicap horse in Japan who won in Dubai? Whats the problem?

Why on Earth would Curlin be on par with Admire Moon?!

My list is only slightly more absurd.

I don't even know why I'm trying to reason. It's like PG1985 redux.

Yep, pretty much.

he's tired of PG stealing all his thunder and getting all the attention. got to show who's really the boss and the best at making off the wall pronouncements.

oh please! this is another example of your unintentional hilarity.


yes you're are a very quiet and unassuming poster, never one to step into the light with an opinion.

[Seattleallstar]

1.Invasor--self explanatory

2.Vengenace of Rain--has been a consistent top class horse in Hong Kong being two time horse of the year there, strung two victories in a how with his stellar run in the Dubai Sheema

3.Asiatic Boy--with his run in Dubai and connections, it suggest that he could only get better as he gets older. Defintely has proven to be one of the top 3 yr olds in the world. Hopefully we will see him here in the summer

4.Discreet Cat--we have heard the excuses, came off a layoff, was undefeated before that produced amazing performances here and in Dubai.

5.Street Sense--won the BC, then came back off the layoff with one hell of a run against AGS could probably be the best 3 yr old right now.

6.Circular Quay--my KY derby pick, shown early on as 2 yr old the talent and his last race is a indicator of what he can really do. Hopefully Pletcher will have him at his best come May 5th

7.Rags to Riches---whats there to say, you all have seen the races, granted it was against suspect competition, but we all saw the way she won. With her breeding, and the way she looks an absolute stunner of a horse. She could very well turn out to be the next great Distaffer after Azeri's retirement

8.Red Rocks--took a while to get this one goin in England, also had a bit of bad luck in 2 races id say, shown what he had in the BC Turf, stunk it up in Dubai, but im willing to give this one a shot as the year progresses

9.Ravel--the races in SA were eyecatching, the darn horse just got hurt

10.Curlin/Admire Moon--Curlin has won his two races in way that would make you think hes a legit horse and the Arkansas Derby will prove it. I'm sure of it

Admire Moon--the guy has been there and done that, the Dubai Duty Free solidified that hes gonna be someone to look for in our races this year.
