I'd seriously take Pleasantly Perfect over those last 3 horses listed, and he was certainly no all-time great. Heck, I'd take Smarty Jones over the last two.

Let's hope so - he's still in Japan. Would love to see him retire to Old Friends. Hope when the time comes they can get him back to the states.
