Other than PD's one insane performance in the slop anyway.
I think the most interesting thing in Better than Honour's PP's is La Ville Rouge. I'm sure there's not too many MSW's which featured mulitple dams of Triple Crown winners...

Probably because he will be short odds to repeat his Kilroe effort in the Shoemaker.

Im a huge fan of EAF...but never in a million years did I see him being a Graded stakes winner...much less a Grade 1.

The Lexington at Keeneland, the Californian at Hollywood, and the Hollywood Turf Cup (too numerous to count), seem like big offenders.
We have a winner.

as far as fillies go, hollywood glitter has to be up there with sutra.

and i most strongly disagree with ruler's court. he suffered a bad injury after his devastating norfolk win, which was just a thing of beauty.

i think that horse was going to be special. oh well.

here's a link to his 15 or so length win in 141.1, a stakes record, in 2003.

Bypassing the Breeders Cup for a trip to Dubai really did that horse wonders...

yeah, it's pretty well established now that they are idiots with their 2 and 3 year old american based horses.

Because Sinister Minister and the horse that won last year's Blue Grass are worse.

Is there a Saarland fan club here that's blocking that nomination? I was looking up a couple I remembered and while he only managed a G3, how 'bout another Lukas nominee, Buckle Down Ben. For the G2 threshold there's Fifty Stars and Spanish Chestnut. Not that they weren't once interesting but they're one hit wonders really, that's all. Does anybody care to sing the praises of Onion?

PS. I happen to enjoy Wonder Lady Anne L to a degree. She did beat Wait a While for a G2 and Pine Island for her G1. Of course not the fastest races on the planet but oh well..I'm rooting for Real Quiet as a sire so it's hard for me to vote against her.

I might have topped myself after a little research. Dawn of War was a GRADE I winning colt and was strikingly mediocre.

How about Almutawakel winning the Dubai World Cup?

He also died before the end of his 3yo season. Tough to hold that against him.
