By the way, not the analogy I would have made when defending my love of Godolphin.
The point is that its all about the HORSE...thats what this game should be about to me....If you are a baseball fan you should apprecaite teh talent and abilities of Alex Rodriguez if YOU ARE A TRUE FAN THAT LOVES TO SEE GREATNESS....not because he plays for the Yankees. Hell, I'm supposed to hate A-Rod by your theory if you say that you would'nt apprecaite any horses Hitler owned - becasue I really dislike the yankees...But i like A-Rod becuase I apprecita good talent...that i the draw and dynamic for most fans...seeing something spectacular happen that average people cannot do, right...

I appreciate horses that are extra-ordinary - such as Bernardini and Discreet Cat...I could care less who owns them......What I cannot appreciate is an owner who I'm personal friends with that has a horse that wins the Louisiana Champions Day Lassie because - while I'm happy for that person - i know that the horse really is just another horse...a dime a dozen..

Bernardinis and Discreet Cats just don't come around enough for me to dislike them and not appreciate them for the petty reason of who owns them....
