I like the fact that he beat the horse that the savvy analysts had annointed as a horse for the ages before he even proved much of anything on the track.

Horse for the Ages, huh, I guess i missed that as well, he was a very good horse, he did win a G1 as a 4yo, so kind of hard to rip on a horse that has won 3 G1's. Empire Maker was a better horse, but that's not to take away from FC. He's been chronically mismanaged, but definetely not overrated.

Point Given is the most overrated, never beat older horses and his Sheet figs were not that fast...
