oh ****
But, apparently, he's 'mentoring' Classhandicapper (over at PA), with the eventual goal to get him to 'see' that Bernardini moved too soon in the Classic. A very tall order, no doubt. If anyone can do it, it's Davidovitz.

Some of us know that Bernadini was used hard moving early, but also appreciate aspects of Invasor's ability and the trip that day that were less apparent that should be considered.
Some of us supplement our income with gambling, but choose more lucrative and less demanding ways to make a living either inside or outside the sport.
I can't speak for Steve.
But I've made more money in a week trading the stock market than most winning players have ever made in a year at the track. The thing is, I also know that Bernadini was used hard early and understand Invasor's ability better than most. So I win at the track too.
If you want to talk about me you should at least tell the truth.
The debate at PA was never about whether Bernadini was used hard early in the Classic. Almost everyone agreed on that. The debate was whether Invasor was an all time great racehorse even though some of his Beyer figures weren't as fast as other great horses (kind of like the Zenyatta debate now).
I argued that he developed throughout the year and had a couple of trips that made it impossible for him to demonstrate the kind of figures he was capable of given better circumstances. So I considered him worthy of being considered an all time great at the end of his career even though some of his figures weren't that fast and none were as fast as Ghostzapper's etc...
