    Hey the poll is work in progress.

    Hopefully it will delightful in a few days.

    There is a ton of stuff on this list that has gotten a vote that I thought would never receive a vote, thus the length.

    I will try to cut it down to the top 30 or 25 for the final. It just depends how the votes spread out.

    Northern Dancer retiring to stud. Now does that mean we have to see a live Discovery Channel episode on horses?
