Haskell victory was quite impressive. It proved he could win from behind, something he never needed to do.
And if you are going to use the "savage right-handed whip card" then you might as well include the majority of other champions in the same breath.

Umm newsflash...he was further back in the Derby. Also was off the pace in The Preakness. At least get your facts somewhat straight.
What was impressive about The Haskell? He sat a perfect trip 2nd to an average horse...then he was all out to beat him. BB didnt pass Zito's horse....Zito's horse slowed down enough in the final 100 yds for BB to get by.
