I just think it's silly to make it sound like he did anything more than just run faster than the horse that beat him last year.
I agree though, he was sensational yesterday. I had Mubtaahij and would have done nicely if he'd won, but I was screaming with joy to see Chrome do it.
And the owners, whether Martin, Coburn or Taylor Made, have kept Sherman as the trainer for the entire ride, so they're all ok in my book. What a wonderful thing, to see a guy hit a career high in his eighth decade.
