Well winning from the outside posts and blowing everyone away in The FL Derby and Kentucky Derby says quite a bit.

Compared to what he looked like he was gunna be, he has been a slight disappointment. For instance, last Spring, Kent said this is the best horse he has ever been on. If you asked now, then what would he say? Is this horse(right now) the best horse he has been on? I don't think so. I think the horse he was on last Spring felt like the best. I think he is doing it with desire, and last Spring he did it with ease. He is a very good horse. He has lost just one time. I don't think desire is gunna be enough to win the race they've targeted. For whatever reason, others are better right now. I think that's what some are saying. That's all.

All this complaining about football - I thought now would be a proper time to interject that I am a Lions fan. In other words, stop complaining.
