He floundered in all his other dirt starts (which all happened to be his most important--ie Kentucky Derby, Belmont, and BC Classic).
As opposed to worrying about what surface he was running on, I'd rather see what he could do with a cutback to a flat mile (or even 7f).
A BC Dirt Mile-Cigar Mile double would satisfy everyone, I suppose, unless someone wants him on grass.

well I agree about the distance part of your argument...I think its funny you say his two major dirt wins....those are the only major wins the horse has really had.
