He looked very strong and fit coming back to the winners circle. The race didn't seem to take much out of him.

I hope he goes on to win 20. Can you imagine the threads of arguments that would start?

If he wins his next, Peppers Pride and Zenyatta should be forced out of retirement for a 3 horse race to settle the argument of greatest horse ever.

How important was that QH race that TVG had to air it live on a split screen?

The 2nd at Los Al was a Maiden Claimer going 300 yards with a $6,700 purse.

How can you blame TVG for refusing to cut away from an epic race like that? In fact, TVG muted the sound of the CT feed for Eddie B's call of the quarter horse race.

Tvg must have some contract with Los al that requires them to feature that track, and it drives me nuts. Last Friday they showed the post parade at Los al with 9 MTP instead of a stakes race at Remington.

You're correct. They also have similar deals with quite a few other tracks. Woodbine & Keeneland for example also take priority over NYRA tracks if post times are identical.

If he wins 20, would that make him Horse of the Year?

Yes. According to the backstretch and regulars at Charles Town and Penn.
