Do you have (if not ten) a top 5?

Too general.
Categories should be:
Open races:
Dirt Sprint: BC Sprint
Dirt Mile: Met Mile
Dirt Route: Breeders Cup Classic
Synthetic: Dubai World Cup
Synthetic sprint: Bing Crosby or Triple Bend
Turf Sprint: Obviously an International race.
Turf Mile Race: Obviously an International race...and it sure isn't the BC Mile. The connections of Frankel never even considered it. Wise Dan was only there because he's gelded. With anything resembling a stallion pedigree he would have passed on the BC Mile and went in the Classic if he was ungelded.
Turf Route: Arc or King George and QE Diamond
Turf marathon: Obviously an International race like the Ascot Gold Cup or something.
3-year-old races:
Dirt Route: Kentucky Derby, Preakness, Belmont, Haskell, Travers
Dirt sprint: King's Bishop
Turf sprint: International race
Turf Mile: International race
Turf Route: International race
2-year-old race:
Dirt: Breeders Cup Juvenile
Turf: Some International race
