What bothers me is the guys who come on here proclaiming his BCC SECOND-PLACE FINISH (Not up the track like their hero Lava Man) is indisputable evidence that he's a fraud. Listen, none of us KNOW ****.

People like me and KY Roses will continue to think he was one of the best horses we've ever seen. People like Sniper and Windu and ArlJim will continue to think he was an okay 3-year-old. There's no proving either opinion wrong, and they should be stated as that, opinions.
I don't think he's an okay 3yo, I think he's a very good with a possibility of being a great 3yo, unfortunately we'll never know...I always thought he was talented, but I did not think he was a great horse at least not until he would have had a chance to prove it...I thought he was going to win, he didn't, maybe I undervalued Invasior, he gets another prep and he might have won by more...He's going to be 3yo of the year, how many 3yo's race a year, that's pretty good to be the best of your generation...
