Name a horse in recent memory who was better in defeat than Congaree was in the KY Derby?
Name a horse who was better in victory than Big Brown? - keep in mind he broke from post 20 and was hung up both turns and still won in surpisingly good time.
Bernardini broke his maiden March 4th in career start #2. He was conservatively pointed to the Preakness.
Which race do you think they should be aiming Miner's Reserve for? The Barbaro stakes on the Preakness undercard?
