I'm not being a prick. This is a fact.
Sure. He was 3 seconds faster today than English Channels win in the same race last year. EC ran over a yielding course though. My friends told me he looked faster than EC one morning at Belmont, so who knows. Remember, it was only his 5th career race, 1st on the turf.

The guys who told me about Showing Up today, and Barbaro on derby day, said Showing Up will likely be one of the favorites for the BC Turf. They kept telling me he had an explosive turn of foot and they were right. This horse can compete with anyone.
