Man O' War was, in my opion, the BEST RACE HORSE EVER! He won 20 of his 21 starts and that is VERY impressive. And, as you mentioned he had to carry alot more weight than any racehorse's nowaday's.
I did hear a few things that I was wondering if it was true or not, and was hoping that you could clarify things for me.
First-was he really sire to both War Admiral and Hard Tack?
