As for Helicopter: he's won at AP, WO, and KEE. And while he was running more cheaply in Florida, his races were pretty much always competitive. He's not the best horse around but he tries.

Hey, I've made money on the horse. He's certainly admirable and does win a lot.
I should have been more clear- synthetics don't identify DIRT talent. It is a third surface, and when we look back in 10 years at this era, must be analyzed/recognized as such.
