Peace Chant couldn't beat 62,500 claimers, but (with Oneil's potions) could beat Machismo(who just ran a nice 2nd to Georgie Boy...A length off In Summation before that.) I'm still waiting for the explanation on Modification being pretty close to winning that Grade 2 last Sunday. What did Modification beat the week before? Caramel Coffee?

Informed was claimed last summer. Its not like he was just claimed and immediately moved way up. Maybe he had physical issues that are being handled better now. Why is it so surprising that a $500,000 purchase ran well? The winner only had a mid 90s beyer anyways.
Did you bother to look at what Peace Chant's record is on dirt? And by the way he ran 107 beyer in the past as well. This horse has an awesome pedigree. A $900,000 purchase. Again not surprising when placed on his best surface that he ran well.
Modification was not even close to winning that race. Finished 4th not 2nd.
Before you go ripping somebody you might want to have your facts straight.
