Is the balance of the crop weaker than normal? Sure. But that's the way it goes - Too bad AGS was born a year too soon, He'd be smoking this crop on his way to immortality instead of an afterthought behind Street Sense, Hard Spun and Curlin.

But BB's accomplishments thus far have been spectacular to watch, and while I am no fan of Dutrow or IEAH, I'm not holding that against the horse. I don't need 115+ BSF's to prove anything - he does what he has to do to get the job done, and does it professionally. That's all you can ask of a horse in my book, it ain't his fault that his competition is sub par.
He's a very nice horse and I don't fault him for that or for not having competition. But until he proves otherwise with a huge performance I don't want to hear people calling him the best since Spectacular Bid or up there with Secretariat and Seattle Slew when that is so far from the truth.
