Best Standardbred in last 25yrs.

In your opinion, who was the best Standardbred, taking all factors into consideration, and regardless of gait, in the last 25yrs? Just an opinion poll, nobody wins nor loses.

Thats me!, however, it's a simple question and should therefore be right in your wheelhouse.

I think The Beach & Bulldog are great choices but my choice would be Foiled Again.

Definitely the best pacer in the last 25 years.

Bulldog Hanover by a mile. The way he dominated and the times he did it in week after week stands in my mind as the real deal period.
Johnny Johnson fucked up Chicago harness racing. I hope you die !!!!

Beach and Bulldog, great choices, Foiled bettor on small tracks.  My choice was Sweet Lou. 2 time world record holder, fastest 2 year at time 149. ever,  fastest pacer on a 5/8 147 and recorded 6 wins in a row in 47.4 or faster.  2 time dan patch winner.

My vote is for Foiled.  109 victories in 331 starts.  Aged pacer of the year 3x.  Career earning of 7.6 mil with avg. annual earnings of $587,000.  Oldest horse to earn a Breeders Crown (I think that still stands)  Doesn't have those speed miles but I think he's overall the best.  One tough SOB.
