Point Given was Horse of the Year and Champion Three-Year-Old Male for 2001. The colt won the San Felipe Stakes and Santa Anita Derby. As the favorite, he was fifth in the Kentucky Derby but was able to win both the Preakness and Belmont Stakes. Point Given, ridden by Gary Stevens, also won the Haskell and Travers. Trained by Bob Baffert, Point Given retired with nine victories in 13 career starts and earnings of $3,968,500.

In 2002, Azeri won the Breeders' Cup Distaff and was named Horse of the Year and Champion Older Female. She again was voted Champion Older Female in 2003 and 2004. When she retired, she had won 17 of 24 races and was the all-time leader in earnings among females with $4,079,820.

In a seven year racing career, Best Pal earned $5,668,245 with 18 wins in 47 starts. In 1992 he won the Santa Anita Handicap and the following year took the Hollywood Gold Cup.

Randy Romero won 4,294 races and had earnings of $75,264,198 in a 27 year career. He was the regular rider of two-time Champion Filly Go for Wand and the undefeated Personal Ensign. Personal Ensign, who died in April, won the 1989 Eclipse Award as Champion Older Female.

The four new members were elected in the contemporary category by the 182 members of the Hall of Fame's voting panel. The Hall of Fame's Historic Review Committee will announce its selections on Wednesday, June 9, completing the Class of 2010.
