His accomplishments already well-chronicled, all I can add is: Isn't he, and the way he has been campaigned for the past 4 years, exactly that for which fans are clamoring?
Side bar: Did anyone listen to last Saturday's paddock interview with owner Shane Ryan, when asked about bringing him back to run as a 5YO, and again as a 6YO, his short but sweet response was (paraphrasing), "We love racing." Owners who claim to love racing, take note.

I didn't get to hear the interview, but are you sure that was the real Clement and not somone doing his EXCELLENT Clement impression?
