He was implying Sunday Silence was better than Easy Goer, something I'm not convinced of.

He was saying Java Gold had a soft schedule compared to the rest of the crop.

He obviously had no appreciation for King Glorious (the horse), as yeah, he is certainly one of those overlooked horses in history that most people did not appreciate.

I don't know what he was thinking with Dinard. That horse was a near certainty to win his derby. EOTY I agree with him, sorta. I doubt he could have beaten that field.

I'm with you on Arazi too. What a waste. I always felt that that ******* trainer sabotaged him to prove his point.

The last bits of his post I thought were good. Except for Candy Ride losing to PP.

Of course, had Grand Canyon and Landaluce not died AND not been Lukas'd, who knows what they could have achieved.
