If I had a vote, Sky Beauty and Safely Kept would both be left out. I have a rule that I apply and that says that a horse has to have been voted HOY at least once OR have won divisional championships in more than one season. I also strongly favor a horse that wins outside of their division. Safely Kept didn't satisfy either one of those requirements and let's be honest, that BC win was because Dayjur lost. She didn't beat him. I really loved her but that's the truth. With Sky Beauty, she also failed to satisfy a requirement and never won outside of her division. She was quite brilliant in NY but much more ordinary than great outside of the state.
