Affirmed will be turning over in his grave, talk about earning a triple crown!

Just the way it is. Seems racing can't win at whatever they do. I do think he is a lot better a colt then must experts but my opinion is based on virtually nothing more then a gut feeling that would be crushed the minute he got passed in the lane..lol

He could be Seattle Slew and he could be Afleet Alex will never really know.

of course I don't know exactly how good he is either, i don't think anyone can be sure at this point. he rates somewhere up with the better horses, but without seeing at least one really fast race, its hard to put him at the very top.
