Let me use Lucky Island for example. WAS a great horse until he stumbled out of the gate 2 back at Saratoga and learned how to lose. Look at the horses last race, ran up the track again. Once a horse finally loses a race and sees nothing changes they dont have the will to win anymore. Why risk getting the horse beat???
Im almost 1000% posititive, lets call it 999% that the connections could care less if you are "impressed" or not with how many races they win in a row and how they do it. Im sure all they care about is keeping the horse sound and winning everytime they race.

We may have the most flagrant abuse of the word "great" of all time.
