Isn't that backwards? All I see on message boards are Barbaro fans who are so upset about their horse (and rightfully so, obviously) that they disparage Bernardini EVERY chance they get.

I am beyond thrilled about Bernardini, but I respect Barbaro a great deal -as a racehorse, but more as a fighter. Albetrani was hoping that his colt would step out of the shadow of Barbaro; I don't think this will ever happen with most fans, because they won't let it happen. Oh well - I just hope he keeps winning
