Not quite. Easy Goer was the horse who got me into racing (I was almost 9.) Still, I didn't have to see The Bid in person to know that he was a great horse... thank heavens for video.

Put that video down and just watch Secretariat.
You dont need to see anymore than that.
That is the only good thing about being as old as I am.

30's arent so bad. 40's has been a little rough...

If you are weighing TC races then how can you leave out Monarchos? I can't, and I couldn't stand the horse.

i'm surprised nobody mentioned awesome again. i know he might not have accomplished as much as a 3yo as touch gold, but c'mon.

dinard was a monster before getting hurt. his win over best pal and apollo was a great race.

did anyone list tiznow? not many horses debut as a 3yo and win HOY that same year.

fupeg, when on his game, would beat most of the names i've seen on this list. well, at least a lot of them, if not most.

indian charlie never got to prove how good he really was, but i feel he's definitely among the best on any of these lists. he kicked the crap out of some nice horses butt's in his limited time racing, including real quiet, artax and old trieste.

unbridled on his day was pretty damn nice.

king glorious was pretty awesome.

Awesome Again didn't win a single G1 as a 3yo, and won only one graded stakes race (the Jim Dandy). He was much better at 4.
I agree on Tiznow and Unbridled. They were both on my list.

When you get to your 50's , the 30-40's all seems like easy street. Enjoy it while you can.
