Default side note

while a lot of champion horses hit the ground running, some take a while to realize their greatness.

here are the first 3 races for the following:

secretariat- 4th, 1st, 1st
ferdinand- 8th, 3rd, 2nd
johnhenry- 1st, 3rd, 2nd
sunday silence- 2nd, 1st, 2nd
cigar- 7th, 1st, 4th
serenas song- 5th, 4th, 1st
tiznow- 6th, 2nd, 1st

so lets not throw him away just yet.
also, none of the horses listed above tried to run a mile first out.
