They weren't bad ... but when horses like Candy Ride, Medaglia D'Oro, and Congaree are around ... and he's not beating them ... the opposition is going to seem terrible.
Perfect Drift was an excellent horse when he beat Mineshaft - and Mineshaft ran the better race of the two in defeat anyway.
I think Mineshaft (with lasix) might have toyed with Invasor. But yeah, He's obviously not even close to being the best horse since '80 and the collection of horses he beat is not very impressive at all.
