Franks hyperbolic review of Pyro will most certainly be eclipsed by what we are soon to hear from him regarding Big Brown.
He is at Belmont now and phoned in a report to TVG yesterday and its already started. he said things like Big Brown now is twice the horse compared to the Big Brown that won the derby. He said something else like the best horse he has ever seen in his life prior to Big Brown is only about half of what Big Brown is now. Couldn't look any better, etc,etc,etc.
