I'm surprised you put Easy Goer on the list but not Sunday Silence.

Easy Goer had the better career.

I rated him the best 2-year-old of the 80's - a decade of many super 2yo's - and the 2nd best 3yo of the 80's behind Sunday Silence.

Sunday Silence didn't do much at age 2 - and his edge over Easy Goer at age 3 was razor thin because of the head-to-head matches where he was able to exploit his tactical superiority while Easy Goer was picking the wrong races to break poorly, race erratically, and make pre-mature moves.

I think even Sunday Silence's biggest fans will admit Easy Goer should be rated higher when you take the entire career into consideration - and not just the 3yo season.

I didn't say I disagreed with you. I'm just surprised you made a correct assessment for a change.
