He had the benefit of Invasor "having a fever, LOL" and being forced to miss his last prep, while getting Bern his, and Invasor lost tons of ground on a track that was favoring rail running speed and Invasor blew by him with ease.
Kiarin fed him and the most sickeningly overglorified horse in history his nuts for dinner. It was truly a beautiful thing to behold.

Actually from your posts, I think Circular Quay is the most overglorified horse in history. Atleast Bernardini was competitive. A ten length beating for the greatest two year old ever. :eek:

Albertrani is nothing but class. I see why Oracle attacks him. Polar opposites.

Albertrani is indeed a classy guy, and handled the loss with dignity and class.
When I said he was outrun and outrained it was not a knock on him, it was meant as an incredible job by Kiarin.
Invasor missed his prep(the ole cough:rolleyes: ) and Kiarin then had to get him ready to run on training alone. I'm shocked but guess I shouldn't be to be reading this crap on here on different threads that actually tries to make excuses for Bernadini. He had his ideal prep, he drew a great post(on that scraped inside track), and got a great trip getting first run on the speed. Invasor drew the 11 hole(other 4 dirt races were won by horses who drew post 1), missed his prep, and had to circle wide and motored on by Bern.
Albertrani did an awesoem job this year with Bern, he really did. He won a classic race with him, he kept him sound, and he ran 2nd in the BCC. Not much else you can really ask of a guy. Bern ran his race on BC day, he just wasn't anywhere near as good as Invasor. Quite frankly if Invasor met him again in a month he'd beat him by 5-7 lengths. The layoff and post worked against him.
Albertrani certainly has nothing to be ashamed of with this horse, he will be crowned a champion and noone can take that off his resume.
