maybe it's just me, but i don't see anything amazing about big browns ability, or his turn of foot. hell, my dog would look like she had a quick turn of foot vs this group of 3 yo's. i think afleet alex would be comparable, and i don't think he was anything incredible or special.
but then, just think if alex had won the derby and preakness like he did the preakness and belmont. there'd have been 1374 threads about him and his sure tc win leading up to the race in new york.
