Bernardini will never be as popular as Cigar even in the American horse racing world for a variety of reasons. First, he won't win 16 races in a row. Second, again, he's owned by a Sheikh. I realize Sheikh "mo" as some like to call him is practically American, but still, it's not like the Chapmans or Sackatoga or the Cash is King gang. Those three horses I just mentioned are probably the three most popular horses among the general public in the last ten years, and it was 100 percent because the average joe could probably identify with the underdog story.
