Im not saying thats what BB was doing, but its the most overemphasized part of the game.

Vgallop performed well in the triple crown races.
so ppl want to see his horses do well in the triple crown races and consider him a disappointment when they do not.
its BS.
same for Free House.
he was a very good California sire when he was alive.
so what if they did not run in triple crown races.
its just 3 races, and to be honest, the Preakness and Belmont are 2 of the softer Grade 1 races around at this point.
the Haskell and Travers almost always come up tougher as far as 3Yo Grade 1 races are concerned.
