So you are telling me that you don't think Scrappy T would have won the Preakness by open lengths if Afleet Alex would have broken down 200 yards in?

After reading all of these posts about Bernardini today, I guess I would like him to beat every living horse on the planet "backwards while towing the starting gate" (I'm paraphrasing from another post)

Let's go back and remember Bellamy Road from last year.

Remember after his allowance win and Wood Memorial how people were talking?

This is the same type situation.

Bellamy Road beat the hell out of very suspect competition in those two races, and all of a sudden he was a GD world beater.

While Flower Alley just scrapped up to win the piss poor Lanes End at Turfway, and then he wins the Jim Dandy/Travers and gets second in the BCC to Saint Liam.

I haven't heard anyone say that Flower Alley is the second coming of Christ, where are those posts?

I mean, he beat Bellamy Road in the Travers. Who was the best horse since god damned Eclipse himself.
