I always thought Silver Charm was good but never thought he was great. He made his big claim to fame by winning the first two legs of the TC but I thought he was lucky to win the Preakness because of Touch Gold's rough trip. I thought Touch Gold was the one that should have won two legs that year. Silver Charn certainly earns points for consistency at the top level but I never considered him to be truly great.
