He must be the best horsey ever.

He lost way too many races as a 2YO, whether he was best in them or not, and while he won some big races, and was a very good horse ( better, in fact, than the greatest horse ever, Big Brown ), he had an injury shortened career. He never faced olders.

Next.

We don't know what Point Given would have done, but he was certainly no ordinary horse, even by G1 standards. As discussed, he is the only horse to win 4 straight million dollar races in a 6 for 7 campaign at 3. He missed being the 2yo champ by a desperate nose to Macho Uno in the BC Juvenile.
