She should 100% be in.

She was the best filly of the decade before Rachel and Zenyatta came along. Point Given was the best of nothing. I'm not even sure he was the best horse of that class, I might vote for Congaree over him.

I agree on that. Older campaigns still matter to me.

Azeri is 100% deserving.

Point Given retired after the Travers and never even faced old horses. Give me a break. I don't deny he is absolutely talented enough to belong....but that isn't the criteria....unless I missed it and Danzig is in the HOF.

i agree on all points. point given didn't do enough to get in, it's ridiculous that he was even on the ballot.

It is a sympathy vote for Romero. You really can't knock it because the guy is, like Phil said, the poster child for little people who are heavy.

I agree with you, if Point Given is in, it opens it up to every Tom, Dick or Harry or in this case perhaps Alex Afleet to get in also. Fantastic way of lowering the bar.
