You're missing the point. Yes, he has built a pretty impressive resume thus far. I have no issue with anyone saying he's the best 3yo this year, because he is. But he's the best of a bad bunch, just like Big Brown was in 2008. He's done very little to say historically he stacks up in my opinion.

Seriously, just looking at the 4 you highlighted- Lookin at Lucky would get crushed by all of them.
