You can say that Easy Goer was better than Sunday Silence, but it's a silly way to argue that the best horse doesn't win the Derby. At worst they were equally talented.
Winning Colors was a better horse than Forty Niner during the Triple Crown. She beat him cleanly in the Derby, and when a frustrated Woody Stevens sent Forty Niner out to run with Winning Colors in the Preakness, which one folded first?
With Real Quiet you are dismissing the closest thing we've had to a Triple Crown winner in 30 years.
Arazi?!! Johannesburg?!! Pulpit?!! Give me a break.
From '87 through '08 I'd say 12 of the 22 races were won by the best horse, and another 3 or 4 are arguable.

I'm pretty sure I used the terms, subjective, can be argued, and in my opinion. Guess in your case....they are all facts.
Sorry for not thinking like you.
