Cross Breeds - Who was your favorite race horse of all time?

Who was your favorite race horse of all time?

Notice I didn't say "the greatest", I said your favorite. It could even be Zippy Chippy if you happen to like him. For me, it's a toss up between Holy Bull and a couple of his sons Macho Uno and Giacomo, Cigar, Da Hoss, and John Henry. Loooove them.

Seabiscuit!
RUFFIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"smarty" you might not of heard of him but i liked ihim he was a good racer untill he passed away early this year :(
My favorites would have to be Cigar, Sea Hero, Ouija Board, and Colin. Sea Hero was the 1993 Kentucky Derby winner, and Colin was a race horse that won all 15 out of his 15 starts. Of course, you gotta love Cigar, and Ouija Board, who is now retired and in foal to Kingmambo.
I like Lava Man....the name, the toughness...all works for me...also Giacomo is awesome.
secretariat,k maybe spelled it wrong.
cougar 2nd....
Swaps
BARBARO!
War emblem
Sunday Silence
Silver Charm. Silly reason I guess, but he'll always be my favorite because he won the Kentucky Derby the first year I ever watched it. Plus I adore grey horses. :)
secretariat...of course barbaro....suncatcher.....lost in the fog...man o war......there are so many,and so many are really unknown to most people except me,so i won't name them all.
Tie between Seattle Slew and Secretariat. Both significant race horses, have had outstanding prospects from them. Not just that, but they are a name that not only horse racing people know about, but people who know nothing about it still know their names.
my favourite ever racehourse is rooster booster it was a lovely grey and one of the most attractive horses ever not to mention a top hurdler
My personal faourites are Dubai Millennium - he'd have walked all over the yanks at Breeders' Cup if not for that fracture he suffered on the gallops - and Haafhd, winner of the 2004 running of the 2,000 Guineas and Champion Stakes. http://www.racingpost.co.uk/horses/racing_horse_form.sd?horse_id=504160 http://www.racingpost.co.uk/horses/racing_horse_form.sd?horse_id=572724
I liked Snow Chief , because he was a undersized horse with an odd running style . I think he liked to run with his head real low . He was dark as hell too. Not a typical race horse.
