Ummm.....okay.....but HE would have deserved it. See the difference?
When Big Brown starts beating horses as good as Riva Ridge and Sham, or starts winning races by 30+ lengths, or starts setting world records, or makes last-to-first moves in the first turn of a race and wins, etc......few will criticize you for "grandstanding" for him.
I did happen to think it was a good performance by the colt yesterday. He is a versatile and fast horse with legitimate two-turn ability. The sport needs more like him.
But that doesn't make him great.
