Sorry, Bernardini is not a great horse at this point in his career and as far as I'm concerned he needs to both run faster and accomplish more in order to move into that imaginary group. It's possible he will, and that would genuinely be exciting, but sadly we've gotten to a point when pretty much no horse is even allowed to establish greatness.

It does make you feel a bit old though

Yes, but lucky to have seen some horses to give me this perspective.

That is true but it also makes me a little frustrated knowing that we probably wont see horses like that again.
