Sorry to be a few days getting back to you. Go Man Go was a great quarter horse that went on to a successful stud career. I'm not really a quarterhorse expert, but Go Man Go is a name that even non-experts know.
Secretariat was arguably the greatest thoroughbred ever to race in America. He was champion at 2 and 3, won the Triple Crown, which no other horse had done for 25 years. His Belmont Stakes was won by 31 lengths in the amazing time of 2:24, which shattered the Belmont track record by nearly 3 seconds. He also won the turf championship, and probably would have been champion sprinter if they'd let him try.
I think Refrigerator may have been a top quarter horse of recent years; don't really know much about him. I've never heard of Doc Bar, Wimpy, King, and Leo.
I hope this is helpful. Feel free to write again.
