There are some great horse mentioned here. You've got Kingston Town, Sunline, Super Impose, The Diva, Better Loosen Up etc, from the modern era. But one seems to be missing. The Big O. It's hard to go past him for one reason. Sheer guts and determination. I've seen all of the horses listed above, but Octagonal is the one I'll NEVER forget.

I've just read all 8 pages of this and certainly agree on Kingston Town as the best galloper I have seen live with daylight 2nd to 8th. I am 'however, gob smacked that no one has even mentioned the best race horse I have ever seen, a pacer from Tasmania who did most of his racing at Harold Park named HALWES.I will never forget the night that they had to allow Quinella betting only at the park when he came off a standing start from 96 yards back and beat Cardinal Bruce, the second half of the fav quinella at 20-1, by half the length of the straight. Truly the best I have ever seen.

Has every one forgot about Super Impose. 2nd in the Cup a Cox Plate win and 4 mile wins in a row in Sydney. True Champion.

I had the pleasure of riding Kingston Town and yes you are right
He was a mighty horse, But not the best I have ever seen
But that doesn't matter You were only describing the best you have seen and KT is certainly right up there with the best of 'em

Yes
Mount Eden is by far the best I have seen in 30 years.
Re Gallopers
I cannot decide. So many good ones
But I think if any one has a close look at the deeds of Aquanita,{Check the Millers Guide) - then that horse must rate right up with the likes of Sunline, Northerly, Kingston Town etc.
