You're making it seem like Twirling Candy is Beyering in the 120's when he's not at all.
Yes I do think it matters. For you to say ML is better you need some sort of reasson for this.... I came back with at least TC is winning races. I went from being a huge ML fan to not trusting him anymore. Its not like Im a ML hater with some biased opinion.

I gave you my reasssssson. TC ran down Smiling Tiger (3rd at 2/5 in his next start) and beat the mighty Tweebster in the Strub, while getting nice trips and pace secenarios each race. YAY!!! TC is beating shitty fields.

Morning Line ran a monster race in the BC and IMO was even more impressive on Saturday and I hated him in that spot. ML is not winning, but running better against better, especially when you look at the races and how they unfolded.

I hate Smiling Tiger and bet Euroears that day, but hell before that next start he was a total stud. I think Byk had him as Eclipse sprinter. TC was a bit wide in the Malibu also.

Of course you bet Euroears....your redboard aside, Smiling Tiger was a total stud before that?

Im sure me beting a first time GOAT is a lie.
Good way to deflect from the actual point though. Smiling Tiger won how many G1's last year? Where did he finish in the BC sprint?

I'm sure it is too. Glad we are in agreement.

He finished 3rd in the Sprint (behind Hamazing Destiny) and beat the mighty Supreme Summit and EZ's Gentlemen in his grade 1 wins last year. What a stud. Just because a race is a grade 1, doesn't mean it has any quality in it.

These are all very basic concepts.
