Top 25 3yo's 1987-2007
 
For anyone that wants to undergo such a task, I'd like to see what some of the lists would look like. If you want to take it a step further and rank them, even better. I'm assuming that there will be at least 10 that will be on every lists and that the remaining choices will cover a wide array of horses. Use whatever criteria you feel like using.

2. Pyro
3. Cool Coal Man

This would be fun King. Even though it was a quick look this morning I went back and looked at every Derby chart from 1989 and it was pretty interesting. It's also interesting to go down memory land and see some of the horses that just seemed to disappear after the Derby and/or the other two triple crown races.

No Suave Prospect?

King Glorious 02-25-2008 04:58 PM

Well, it was worth a try.

1) Sunday Silence





































































24 others that weren't nearly as good.

fpsoxfan 02-25-2008 05:03 PM

I give him credit for trying, but Egghead?

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.

Gotcha, now that I look at the rest of the list. I'm a mess.

I was going to put Sarava, Giacomo and Commendable after the obvious three but everyone else took care of the levity.

fpsoxfan 02-25-2008 05:27 PM

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