 Yep... it's pathetic that it took me as long as it did to be impressed with him.  You know... I wouldn't call him a "great" horse, but he sure has a lot of talent.  All of these negative posts to the Bernie supporters are kind of unwarranted IMO.  The horse proved a lot to me on Saturday.  He lost by one length to a better and OLDER horse, but he beat everyone else and did so even though he had been asked a bit too early by Castellano.  It's a shame we won't see him run again.  I would have loved to have seen him run...
