Okay so clearly Perfect Drift and Lava Man are the arguing points. Maybe even throw Game On Dude in there. No one has argued the 9 other horses on my list, and that is only since 2003. How in the world is Commentator among the all-time greats if he might not even be among the top 10 since 2003 according to nearly everyone on here, which was my original point?

My post about Perfect Drift lacked his '03 running lines cause I could only screengrab so much. I'll post the rest tonight.

There's really only one person who has said that Commentator was an all-time great in this thread. Myself, and just about everyone else have offered that what Commentator lacked in durability he made up for in brilliance. He just didn't do it very often at all.

"one of the GOAT" now means "one of the 13 greatest since 2000?"
