any all time list going back to the era of kincsem can't be taken seriously with zenyatta at number 11. that's a lot of horses in those centuries, and she's in the top 20. preposterous nonsense.

she won once ever in open company. tried open company all of twice in all her years of racing. gimme a break.

forego, john henry, round table...left off, but the pretender is number eleven all time.
this thread should be moved to esoteric under 'heard any good jokes lately?'

Your point is well taken but if you look carefully the list actually goes back over 150 years before Kincsem.

i didn't look that carefully; it's not a list to be taken seriously.

Can you imagine if everyone did not one but two lists?

Just sayin...
Watch for my top 500 horses list, coming soon, sure to provoke many discussions about why I placed #426 ahead of #469. It's gonna blow this place wide open.

There is an obvious bias against LA breds in this list as well, I see no mention of Happy Ticket or Costa Rising on this list.
