Just bumping up this thread as a refresher.

I "discovered" not only Bernardini ... but Songster and Smuggler as well ... long before anyone else knew of them.

And ... I was the first to expose Lost In The Fog ... and to predict Barbaro's breakdown ... and to spot the decline in Funny Cide's capabilities.

Only the unfortunate injuries to the magnificent Mayan King ... prevented a clean sweep.

Why bring these many triumphs up now? Hey ... I didn't ... someone else created the "Bold Predictions" thread.

It's been a long time since we've had a really "great" colt in the U.S. ... let's hope "my horse" ... Bernardini ... can take us there again.
