Fine effort by Commentator to overcome the training job by Zito.

not taking anything away from commentator..but it just shows how sad the horses are in this year....great job by commentator /zito knowing the rail,the speed, the lack of talent.. means a 7 year old wins the whitney..

Is Commentator a gelding? I didn't think he was, but now I'm thinking he must be. Can't find any mention of it online.

Distorted Humor has somehow become a great big route race stallion.

Hystericalady just embarassed the field going 10fs in the $1 million Del Cap

Commentator has two Whitneys.

Funny Cide has a Derby and Preakness

Any Given Saturday has a Haskell score over Curlin and Hard Spun

Flower Alley has a Travers win and a 2nd in the BC Classic.

It was either the jockey or a thrown shoe.

Two Questions:
1) Do you think the fact that he won a race named the Salvator Mile is what gave him that extra something special to be a great sire?

2) Do all of those big victories by his progeny make up for the fact that he also is the one responsible for the creation of Cowtown Cat?
