He is the single best horse I've seen since I started watching. And say what you will about sheet numbers, they mean something and based on them only Ghostzapper has ever run faster (in history, not just the last 20 years) and that was 1 time. I know what I saw. I don't look to convince anyone else.
By the way I think a serious argument can be made that Spectacular Bid was better than Secretariat (at least over a career.) I will hold off making that proclamation b/c I simply haven't seen enough of the races on videotape. But Bid's career as I have looked at it is astounding. Fast everywhere he went. Few flops, Secretariat would throw in some stinkers.
