Why is it bad for a front-runner to be one-dimensional (esp. when his one dimension was spectacular) and a closer not to be?
Spectacular Bid wasn't a one-dimensional closer - on 7 different occasions he won Graded Stakes races in wire-to-wire fashion. On 5 different occasions he won Graded Stakes from 5 lengths back or further after a half mile. But ideally - he was a presser.
