Witchdoctor,
With all due respect, and I'm sure George William Smith knows whereof he speaks, I'm going to take that list with a "grain of salt".
Reasons...too numerous to mention but I'll start with...
1981- Alydar was a much better broodmare sire than Affirmed.
1982- Spectacular Bid, great runner. How many offspring did he pass it on to?
1985- Caerleon, who do you think you're kidding?

Thanks for the input.
I think there are much better stallions than those cited.
