Travis stop it...really. You're taking a blanket remark about normal horses and throwing it over a horse that may not be an all-time great but is clearly not normal. We're treating horses like such pansies right now and it's ideas like thinking that huge performances where they win on cruise control leave them zapped that have led us to crowning "champions" every year.
