I was actually trying to think of 49 horses superior to Quality Road going a route of ground since 1990, and I think we could probably come up with a pretty good list. Quality Road would be aiming for listed stakes or would be probably pacesetter fodder in the 96-98 or so years.

Zenyatta did cross the Mighty Mississipp once, though she was kindly kept in her stall rather than run on that awful muddy track!

That Ouija Board was only 10 for 22 lifetime! Hardly the stuff of legend!

Another statement that is impossibly clueless to the point that I don't know if you are serious or just stirring the pot.

I didn't think it required explaining, I was hoping that folks would see the juxtaposition of Smooth Operator's critique of Winning Colors for only going 8 of 19 and a short list of several other HOF-worthy fillies and mares who also didn't win 50 percent of their starts and further note the sheer ludicrousness of his statement.

The prospect of facing superstar Miss Isella was a daunting one.

Gallorette won a measly 21 times in 72 starts. And she only beat Stymie once and - gasp! - ran against Triple Crown winner Assault. Hall pass revoked!

Don't even get me started on Princess Doreen, Lady's Secret, Susan's Girl, or Shuvee. Bums, they're all bums.
