In the BC Classic....he got his trip and setup...but he beat a very tough field.
He did everything he had to do today---however, it was no historically great performance....like many are acting.
I appologize for knocking Sun King....for his no doubt "great" performance in teh Whitney.

it was a great performance in that he had a troubled trip, which could have been disastrous and thankfully wasn't, and came back on to win.
as for sun king, he did have a good performance in the whitney. horses do that sometimes, run over their head. hell, look at seek gold and colonial colony in their stephen fosters!
