Very fast at all ages, very consistant at all ages, very heavily raced and travelled at all ages. I've posted about him many times.
His fastest race at age 2 was the LRL Futrity. The LRL Futurity was his 3rd Grade 1 in less than 3 weeks - in three different states no less.
He broke the 8.5f track record at LRL by a full second. General Assembly was 2nd by 8.5 lengths. Clever Trick (who was 18-for-29 lifetime and an excellent 2yo) was 3rd by 20.5 lengths. Tim The Tiger (a Grade 1 winner who brought a 5-for-6 lifetime record into the race) was 4th by 25 lengths.
He basically lived in the low to mid 120's at age 3 and lived in the mid 120's to low 130's at age 4.
Bid's fastest race at age 3 was probably the Malboro.
Won by 5 over General Assembly. GA won the Travers by 15 in his prior start and took the Vosburgh over older sprinters in his final career start.
Coastal was 3rd in that race. He came back to run a good 2nd to the older Affirmed next out. Czaravich (a soundly beaten 3rd) won his next three starts on dirt including a win in the Met Mile under 126lbs.
Cox's Ridge (an older horse who was 16-for-28 in his career and a Met Mile winner) was 4th
Star De Naskra (who had crossed the wire first in 7 straight) was 6th.
Bid was even consistantly faster at age 4 until the last race or two.
