Well thanks it was fun to write. I might try to keep up the series "Hall Of Lame" if I get enough horses for it, i'll make another forum post for it.

Would you want to write about some of the old sim horses that sort of faded into obscurity? There's a lot that somehow never made it into the HOF so I wonder how much the newer sim players know about them. Lokite Magic, Sparkle Factor, Baby etc. Canoe's breakdown his debut, back when the Sim was feral, and Mighty Big pulling off what I think is still the biggest bomb in the Derby to this day. Some get overlooked because the race figures they ran back then wouldn't hold up to today's standards, but when the best the best horses are constantly running 80 speed figures you still have to be special to pull off constant wins in the biggest races.

I never even knew of Canoe's thing but it sounds like a story to retell (as sad as it is). I'll first write Canoe's article and then hopefully i'll go to Mighty Big because i've always liked his story.
