To be fair though, that thread is over a year old and there are lots of newer posters who might want to answer...

I assumed he already did.

I'm gonna guess that Java Gold is not in the Hall Of Fame.

Only because of a West Coast bias.

Second best horse I've ever seen. Right Behind King Glorious. Neither would be in.

King Glorious was horrendous. He may have been as good as Forestry as far as sprinting 3yos (that occasionally stretchout) go.

I laughed. Lots of 2yos earn Beyers of about 104 and 110 (at a mile) and have the speed to run 6f in 1:08 4/5, 7f in 1:21 1/5, and also win the 9f Haskell as a 3yo. For whatever it's worth, McCarron once said that up to a mile, Sunday Silence and Easy Goer wouldn't have known what hit them. That's good enough for me. I've never limited what I think is good to what's good at nine or 10 furlongs on dirt.
