I liked him a lot - but he would be a huge stretch.

He'll always be hopelessly overlooked cause he beat Lefraudesanimaux and his sore feet, who happens to have been a good front running turfer which resulted in his speed figures being ridiculously overrated as they often are when a turf runner gets loose on the lead in a top race. The same Lefraudesanimaux that beat Artie exactly zero times in his entire career yet has thousands of people that will adamantly claim he was a superior horse.
