No shame at all. But it doesnt mean anything these days really. I think you are missing the point.

And what is that point? These fields for these "grade 1" races are shallow. There isnt much quality in most of them especially the restricted three year old races in august.

What was in that Travers? Sightseeing (proven nag) and Cp west (proven nag) and grasshopper along with Street Sense. What did Grasshopper beat? Nothing. What did he beat before? Nothing. What has he beaten since? Nothing.

So you inferred that there was form reversal between three and four. I dont see it as i have said. He still hasnt won a stake in either year. He still hasnt beaten a decent horse in either year.

Where is the form reversal? You based his quality on a "grade 1" race devoid of quality outside of the winner and an allowance race devoid of quality altogether.

What am i missing?
