I grew up watching horse racing during the 1970's as a teenager - -

I think Honest Pleasure & Bold Forbes should definitely be on you list

I'd include Key to the Mint, Little Current

John Henry started winning in the 1970's - I swear I was at Aqueduct with my Dad the day (May 1978) he ran in a claiming race (I wish I could find the program) - I think R. Donato was the trainer.

My favorite horse of the 1970's was Wajima (relished the mud)

Seattle Slew did everything easily - Spectacular Bid was a monster - -

Everytime Forego ran was a big event !!!!

The Bloodhorse has an area with a searchable index for the Eclipse Award winners by year. That would be a good place to look for some of the stars of the 70's. Here's the link:
