The 3-year-old males are a brutal group to rate. A good case could be made for anyone of seven or eight.

Well done list, but War Pass was the best 2-year-old male of the decade? No mention of Vindication?

Good thing you gave a of some kind to Barbaro Doug... As it is you've targeted yourself for death threats from the 'FOB' with the 3yo awards...

Riboletta's best races rival any of the females in this decade....Easily better than Azeri.

Ridiculous.

For a minute, I thought this was the "Selections" forum...

I agree to an extent but Congaree was one tough SOB. He will never be remembered among the best of the past decade because he didn't have a signature win but he won 10 graded stakes races including Grade I's ranging in distance from 7fs to 10fs.
