I think he sets a bad example going forward because I imagine we would have seen similar brilliance from more than a few horses over the last 25 years if they only ran 3 times a year.

That and GrEaTeSt HoRsE eVeR nonsense by people who should know better is over the top. He ran a 121 today. Very similar to Ghostzapper, et al. I read someone say he would have beaten Secretariat by 5 lengths in Secretariat’s Belmont. We’ve reached the point where logic is out the window.
On NBC, the stat guy, I don't remember his name, but he said somebody did figures on Secretariat's Belmont and his beyer would have been around 139.
I knew Flightline was a nice horse but didn't expect the dominance he showed today.
