Baffert, Point Given among Hall of Fame finalists

Best Pal is long overdue to get in, just as Manila was last year. He was a Grade I winner at 2, 3, 4, and 5. Who's the last horse to have accomplished that feat? I still vividly remember him winning the inaugural Pacific Classic as a 3YO, defeating Twilight Agenda, Unbridled and others.

The HOF has been suspect at best. From constantly changing-up the nomination and voting policies, to allowing some very questionable talent in, it seems to have lost its punch versus what the HOF means in other sports.

I respect and truly enjoy steeplechase racing, but when they toss in three or four every other year or whatever it is, it seems lopsided when you compare # of t-breds versus steeplechase horses, and their respective participants.
