What were the best stretch duels of all time?

[banter]

Listing the top stretch duels of all time would be beyond me, but citing a few incredible duels from the past few years would be readily do-able.

1) agree completely with the 2007 Rags To Riches - Curlin Belmont selection

2) agree as well with the 2004 Fountain of Youth match between Read The Footnotes - Second Of June

3) the 2005 Cornhusker stretch battle between Lord Of The Game - Silver Axe - Mambo Train - Habaneros

4) and with the 2007 Breeders' Cup Distaff (I really miss seeing the name of that race in the BC line-up) bout between Ginger Punch and Hystericalady

5) a tie between Medaglia D'Oro - Candy Ride in the 2003 Pacific Classic and Medaglia D'Oro - Pleasantly Perfect in the 2004 Dubai World Cup

Of course, similar great stretch contests have been waged in the past decade by runners such as Lava Man, Zenyatta, Perfect Drift, Evening Attire, and others, but I'm happy with my list as is.
