There is a big difference between the Barbaro Who crowd and the Bernardini supporters. I thought Bernardini was ok but still wasn't a 100% believer until this weekend, but now I have to admit Cunningham and even Bold Brooklynite were correct.

The jockey didn't say the horse was better, he just liked him better, which is probably because he is still running. They are jockeys, of course they are going to say they like the current runner better. But still, if he is comparing the two than Bernardini must be a special horse.

I'm not talking about anything the jockey said because yeah, you are right about that. I mean after all, GS rode the "greatest horse he had ever been on" about 402 times in his career. I'm talking about the posters who said something like "Bernardini will probably end up being better than Ghostzapper because GZ didn't beat Roses In May by very much in the BCC." What?

Well, whatever. I am done talking about Bernardini until Travers week.
