Doesn't get much better than 1993, though the field was very small, with Kotashaan just edging Bien Bien in a world record clocking. I think Epsom Derby winner Quest For Fame was 3rd.

*No, it was '92 BC Turf winner Fraise in third.

I was there, though for some reason I keep thinking it was the 10F race before that one....just remember Kotoshaan being a machine, because Bien Bien was pretty friggen good.

Bien Bien was my favorite horse when I got into the sport.
