there are no real handicap races anymore, the race is more often to the shed any more, rather than on the track.
thanks for the post, i do need to try to keep this more in perspective. i'm very high on the horse-it's a shame that lack of stiff competition might mean he's another 'could be' great rather than proving he is great.

He obvously is a very good horse and it is not that easy to ship and win anytime but I just don't get this feeling that I am watching a great horse when I watch him. Maybe it is the workmanlike style but I think it is that there are no really good other horses out there to compete with him. It would be interesting to see him ship west to take on Lava Man on his home turf in a race like the Pacific Classic. But there is no chance that will happen.
