as for how was the bid on turf-i dont' recall him running on it, so who knows? that would be like asking how secretariat was at four.

He won't have any * next to it. That is ridiculous. Do we put an asterisk next to records because one is on a track that is known to be faster, or one that has a pace scenario that benefitted a horse?
Najran is a world record holder with Dr. Fager. It is that simple. The original poster needs to add Najran.
As for the Bid and Secretariat, the Bid could never be Secretariat, because Secretariat pulled off the toughest feat in the sport. He won the triple crown. The Bid couldn't get it done. There are no excuses when talking about greatness either. You either get it done or you don't.
