Greatest Living Racehorse?

[smuthg]

With pitchers and catchers reporting, it got me thinking about how Joe Dimaggio required he be introduced as "The Greatest Living Ballplayer" and of course my mind wondered to who is the "Greatest Living Racehorse"? It always seemed to me that the title of the "The Greatest Living Ballplayer" was more out of respect for the old guy who was still upright, and not a title was representative of the truly "best" living player. Using that as a basis (and the fact the HRTV documentary about him was on last night, which got me thinking even more about this question) is it safe to say that Cigar is the "Greatest Living Racehorse"?
