This Dick Jerardi guy wrote a piece at drf.com comparing these two fillies race the other day to Affirmed - Alydar and Sunday Silence - Easy Goer.

Then he compared BL to Zenyatta.

Maybe his article on Guerrero was just stupidity after all.

I'm glad nobody else though, is getting carried away with this!!

It's not equatable to either of those rivalries, but in this era of a million different stakes races and connections of top horses doing everything they can to duck each other, it looks pretty damn special, with their latest meeting being their best yet.

I'll agree with that. But writers, they really are so desperate to make anything remotely good into something much more than it is.
