He used to go off the radar praising him, too. At the end of the Preakness he made a negative comment about Bernie's time; I am paraphrasing now because I blocked it from my memory. He basically said the time was ordinary. Anyway, it wasn't true. His time was a very good one and so were his figures: Beyer, Ragozin, Thorograph.
