Yet many of the Bernardini goo-goos on various forums I attend were really harsh critics of Fog. If Bernardini throws a clunker in the BC Classic, their careers will basically be identical except Fog traveled more, was undefeated and raced a couple more times.
You cant compare the Withers, Preakness, Jim Dandy, Travers, and Jockey Club Gold cup with the Kings Bishop, Riva Ridge, Sunshine millions and Carry Back.
