People have short memories. Bernardini was being showered with "one for the ages" accolades, too, similar to what we're hearing about Big Brown now. Thankfully Bernardini ran in the Breeder's Cup. We probably won't have that luxury with Big Brown.

i agree with you 100% . you were joking about bernardini earlier. the whole list has only 2 that are worth a vote. man o'war or secretariat. with curlin approaching them , maybe. but as i said in previous post man of war was 20 for 21. these horses can't even sustain a career like this. its rare for them to even get 20 starts. which points to the whole breeding/drug mess!
