Synthetics really do a good job of identifying talent, don't they?

No more so than biased speed dirt tracks (or biased turf courses). Think any of the beneficiaries of what's happened this summer @ SAR will repeat their performances over fair surfaces?

As for Helicopter: he's won at AP, WO, and KEE. And while he was running more cheaply in Florida, his races were pretty much always competitive. He's not the best horse around but he tries.
