Bernardini's Beyer: 116
Bernardini got a 116 Beyer yesterday. That gives him 2 of the top 3 BSFs given any dirt route horse this year.
Henny Hughes got a 108 for his fine effort yesterday. He handled those horses much more easily than I thought he would. --Dunbar

Thanks for the info, Dunbar! Bernardini finished in 24 4/5, a pretty darn good time considering he was winning easily. This guy's potential is unlimited - what race the Gold Cup will be.
What a great weekend for racing - Bernardini, Discreet Cat, Henny Hughes, Aragorn.........fabulous performances.

He is no where close to his best yet either, which is the most scary part about him...plus, he never has had to run all-out yet, so your not seeing his full effort in these races because he doesn't have to try...nobody can push him enough in the stretch to make him lay his body down...hsi is winning too easily beacuse he is pounds better than the other 3-year-olds...

If he didn't also get a 108 ... then these speed numbers don't mean a thing.
