Really? What about Lava Man, The Tin Man, Evening Attire, Better Talk Now, etc.? (Minus the "tremendous public followings," of course, since that's impossible in this era).
forego ran third in the ky derby behind secretariat and sham. i'm not quite sure what they mean by being 'thrown to the wolves' since i believe kelso ran at two, as did henry.
hell, i hope a horse hurries up and wins the tc so that this bs can stop.
