The Rapid Redux comparison is foolish to say the least. Take it on the arches rock head
I also like Louisville moneyline tonight.

Not only that, there is one guy who thinks Songbird really won the Distaff and that the photo was faked.

No one I have read that is worth a salt has ever said that.

Its very popular to take twitter and random message posts and make it the "general consensus".

No one said it period. She couldn't warm Zenyatta up, in my opinion.
But.....She ran awesome every time. I still think if Money Mike took her out to see Forever Unbridled, she never would have let her by. She still just got beat despite not being healthy. No one has been able to produce a mirror image photo of Beholder beating her. I'm sure someone would love to post it and shut me up, but since Songbird won, it won't ever happen, or It would have already. Right ?

There aren't many all time greats. Songbird = great, not an all time great.
