I wasn't sure if he was kidding or not until I saw that Song of the Sword wasn't even on the list.
Then I knew for sure that he was just joking around.

In no particular order and I'm sure I'll be leaving someone out.

Alysheba
Winning Colors
Risen Star
Sunday Silence
Easy Goer
Holy Bull
Thunder Gulch
Mecke
Silver Charm
Lemon Drop Kid
War Emblem
Smarty Jones
Afleet Alex
Street Sense
Curlin


These are just a few I would consider to be very good 3 year olds.

bernardini and barbaro were both very special
barbaro obvious tragedy
