No disputing he ran well (he won after all), but if you are proposing it was a much better effort than all his previous runner up performances behind better horses (Flightline) and old rivals he's never gotten the best of (Royal Ship), I don't particularly agree.

And if he did run an improved race, what does that mean in the greater scheme of things? I suppose he can win the Big Cap and/or Hollywood Gold Cup (but he likely won't cuz he'll probably go to the middle east).

If you think his Dubai World Cup was some sort of landmark performance, I'm pretty sure most of the also-rans in that race were coming from the middle east's answer to Mahoning Valley...
