He was also a nose back in quite possibly the two most prestegious races for older horses in NY, in the Met Mile and Whitney. Both are grade ones. And who beat him in those two races? Silver Train, who is about unbeatable at Belmont, and Invasor, a horse who has lost one race in his life, to Discreet cat, who you think is good. Sun King is definitely a grade I caliber horse, and he has proven it by keeping that company for the past two years.

First thing is that how can it be possible that Sun King was the ONLY one that made a WINNING MOVE in a race in which he finished third? Did the first two finishers make losing moves? I don't understand that. There is a difference, at least to me, in being grade one caliber and a grade one horse. Going Wild was keeping grade one company last year. Did that make him grade one caliber? If EVERYTIME u step up to that level, u lose, that's saying something. EVERYTIME.
