Default Pharoah vs. Older, what's next . . . ?

So he romped today, Victor nudged him slightly on the far turn to take over the race with 2 or 3 little hand pumps and then sat chilly, hands still, throttled down and coasting to the wire . . . thus he had an easy work out today . . . So there are no 3YO's that can carry his horse shoes let alone run against him. Question is, is there a horse of any quality of any age that can give him a run for his "money" . . . can't think of any . . .

Who is out there . . . anybody, I doubt it!!!

What has Obnoxious done and who has he or she beaten? Never heard of the horse. Must be a dark horse.

I'd really like to see some horse make him earn. The Derby was somewhat of a test but he was still learning and there was 18 other freaking wanna-bees he had to deal with.

Speaking of freaking . . . AP is truly the definition of a FREAK. Bring'em on I say, bring'em on.
