Paula B. could you please calm down? You must understand that some of the people on this board (myself included) didn't see Seattle Slew nor Secretariat win the Triple Crown, we were too young at the time, or he/she wasn't born at the time. So some of us here on this board has gained our horse racing knowledge through talking with people and/or reading. Grantided it's no where near as good as being there in person, but please understand that the way you are handling the sitiation right now it seems that you are trying to push the fact that you saw horse racing history in the making so you know it all, and we didn't see it so we know nothing, that's how it seems to us on this board by your choice of words.
Yes we do value a person with horse racing experience on this board, but please keep in mind that everyone on this board has his or her own opinion and yes it may conflict with yours. I just ask everyone on this board that even though you may disagree with someone else that you PLEASE at least respect the person's opinion.
