I liked Kona Gold. He's my favorite. Of course I liked Successful Appeal too but that turf mile was a lot of grid lock for him.

Personal Ensign was a touch before I really got into the sport, but watching that finish gives me chills today.

Tiznow was my favorite, but Ouija Board took over the top spot last year.

Ouija Board was the first I thought of when I saw this thread.

Desert Stormer. My first Breeders' Cup, and my first BC winner. If only she hadn't been part of the field.

Tiznow also deserves a mention. Played him big in 2001, and had the exacta many times as well as the double with Fantastic Light.

1. Tiznow
2. Ouija Board
Both with my head and my heart.

Either my head or my heart.
3. Invasor - Proved my belief right and all the Dini Weenies wrong.
4. Spain - Should have had two.
5. Rock of Gibralter - disastrous race. Domedriver was worthy, though.
Also: John's Call, Vindication, Squirtle Squirt, She's a Devil Due, and Macho Uno.

BC horses who irritated me either by their hype or just bitter that they won.
1. Bernardini/Fusaichi Pegasus - ridiculously over hyped.
3. Volponi. I was alive to 8 horses in the Classic for the Pick 4. Figured he might run a nice race, but no way did I think he could beat that group.
4. Wilko. Thought I had that race won for the tri box (and eventually would've hit the pick 4) when my three picks were 1,2,3 just outside the 1/16 pole before this guy all of a sudden woke up.
5. Johannesburg. That race just pissed me off.

Everytime I hear his name I just wanna slap someone, like somone named Bailey.hehe I know,I know Goatzapper was WONDERFUL, blah, blah,blah, dont wanna hear it. hehe And the whole Bernardini can beat everyone, ummm totally forgetting Invasor. How stupid did their little posters look after the race? haha
