Met Mile-
Devil His Due- Multiple GSW including Wood Memorial, Gulfstream Park Handicap, Pimlico Special and Suburban.
Cherokee Run- Multiple GSW and Champion sprinter of 1994. Won BC Sprint.
Tinners Way- Multiple GSW including Californian and Pacific Classic (twice).
Colonial Affair-Mutiple GSW and Classic winner. Won Belmont, Whitney and Jockey Club Gold Cup.
Virginia Rapids- Multiple GSW, including Peter Pan, Tom Fool and Carter
American Chance- Multiple GSW including Jersey Derby and Forego
West By West- Multiple GSW
Federal Funds

Woodward-
Devil His Due, Colonial Affair and Tinners Way- see above
Go For Gin- Multiple GSW, classic winner. Including Kentucky Derby, Remsen
Bertrando- Multiple GSW, Champion Older Male of 1993. Wins include Del Mar Futurity, Norfolk, San Felipe, Pacific Classic, Woodward.
Brunswick- Won gr. 1 Whitney in 1993
Pistols and Roses- Multiple GSW including Bluegrass and Donn (twice)

Pretty comparable fields I think.
That Met Mile field was awesome, would never argue that, and the performance was better than awesome. I was there that day... 3YO's aren't supposed to do that.
