Cat Thief-Breeders Cup Classic Winner, also won one of the Strub
Prime Timber-I believe was hurt and retired after the Derby
General Challenge-Won the Pacific Classic as a 3yo and the Big Cap

Geez, Slot are you done with me blitzkrieging that theory? Really, this is revisionist history to say that AA and SJ were so much better, just look at the facts.

Come on, Mace, I wasn't saying that those guys weren't great horses, but I much prefer the exploits of Rock Hard Ten, Eddington, and Castledale, that's all I'm saying. No need to go the blockheadd route with me.

I think the bottom line for me is that of the two horses I saw with my own two eyes - Smarty was the better racehorse.
