His Pacific Classic was along the same lines as Ghostzapper's Iselin, BC Classic, and Met Mile. That's why Doug said Candy Ride had one and Ghostzapper had multiple sensational performances and I think he's absolutely right.

I don't believe I put the other two on a par with the Pacific Classic. I just thought it wasn't fair to say he had one good one either. I also thought that his single best performance was the best of anyone else's single best performance in at least the last decade.
