Let's just make it a hall of good horses then. Forget making it the elite of the elite. Put Open Mind and Sky Beauty in the same sentence with Personal Ensign and Lady's Secret. Put Best Pal in the same hall with Spectacular Bid. There's virtually no difference.

The thing that your aren't getting is that they aren't all CLEARLY hall of famers. If they were, nobody on here would be debating it. If Spectacular Bid is on a ballot, do you really think anyone would say "no"? Would we really have to break out his past performances and go over his record? Would anyone need to make a convincing argument on his behalf? That's the point I'm making. You may clearly believe that all three of those mares deserve to be in. That's fine because it's all subjective anyway. But if you can't get 90% of the people to agree on it with you, then I just don't believe they should be in there.
