Best Horse since Affirmed. "March Madness" vote! Got 64 horses. *LOOK*

[Free House]

THought this might be kinda fun. Vote for the horse you think would win. We will say this race would be run on dirt, 1 1/4 miles, neutral track. I will take the 1st 5 votes for each, and move them on to the second round. We will eventually get to the final 4, and then the eventual champion. These horses are all after 1978. No TC winners.

Can't wait for the KD. Should be a classic TC series this year. The wife and I will be in Hilton Head, and we were talking today about where we want to watch it. Sun, surf, a drink, and fast horses. I like the combo.
