I was never a big fan of the horse but I don't see how anyone can knock him. He won 4 graded stakes races in a row and then ran 2nd in the Ky Derby. Like everyone else, I thought that he was beating suspect competition on the West coast, but then the horses he beat out here like I Want Revenge and Papa Clem wen back East and kicked butt. And then POTN goes back and runs 2nd in the Ky Derby. He basically validated that his form on the West coast was legit.
I wouldn't call POTN a great horse but he was certainly one of the top 3 year olds in the country this year. If any of you guys buy horses and even if you have several million dollars to spend over the next 20 years, you could only dream of owning a horse like POTN. He's obviously a very good horse. He's a once in a lifetime horse for most owners.
