Also notice that in the latter part of 04 and early 05 is when Eddington really did start winning, like I mentioned.

Dude, you claimed a GI winning $1 millionaire had "no shot" in a race, like it was preposterous that Eddington was even entered in the race, and since he was, it was a given that the horse was there to bother Smarty Jones. All of this while apparently forgetting Rock Hard Ten (or Purge for that matter) were even in the race.

And now your argument has changed to something regarding Eddington's performance in the Preakness? I don't think I could make up your line of reasoning if I tried. With all due respect.
