Favorite / Best Crop

[Holland Hacker]

With all of the talented three year olds running this year it kind of reminds me of 1987. It also got me thinking about which crop or crops of horses could be considered outstanding after their racing careers were over and were into their stud careers.

I'll start off with my favorite which was a crop that what was originally considered a weak crop as I recall. After all the derby winner still qualified for Non-Winners of 2 Other than Maiden Claiming or Starter as he entered the gate on the first Saturday in May.

The 3 Year Olds of 1987.

Alsheba, Bet Twice, Brave Raj, Capote, Cryptoclearance, Gulch, Gone West, High Brite, Java Gold, Lost Code, Miesque, Personal Ensign, Polish Navy, Sacahuista. Plus I'm sure I left some off of the list.

So what is your favorite crop?
