Default Barbaro vs. Bernardini

Still no comparison in my opinion-

Barbaro would beat Bernardini easy

Here's why:

- Barbaro was undefeated if you throw out the Preakness, while Bernardini was losing allowance races not too long ago

- Barbaro won the derby in convincing fashion close to the lead in a race that was supposed to set up for a closer

- Bernardini won the Preakness against a horse with a bad pedigree who was worn down and a California horse in a year where the CA 3 yos have proven to be weak and inferior

- He won the Dandy against essentially no one since Sunriver didn't take to the mud

I'm not saying Bernardini's not a special horse, but Barbaro was a potential super horse
