... exactly how did you calculate those "20 lengths"?
You're not one of those naïve folks who's comparing a great 4YO to a great 3YO are you? Can you cite anything Spectacular Bid did as a 3YO ... which can compare to what Secreatriat did as a 3YO?

What the **** is wrong with you? I gave Sec the edge as a 3 yr old. He was better as a 3 yr old. But the totality of a horse's career matters. And Bid's 4 yr old year would've been tough to top even by Sec.
