Each was being paraded around the track; Niatross was the recipient of cheers and Spectacular Bid was the recipient of jeers.  He was paying for his trainer's bragging.  I cannot understand that behavior.  The horse was a true champion, someone special.  How can anyone actually dislike a horse?  It is like disliking Lassie or Elsa the Lioness.  Animals bring so much to our lives.  Anyway, I am rambling, but I swear that there are people who dislike Bernardini because he is not Barbaro.  Seattle Slew suffered this because he was not Secretariat. |
