Hoss, he definitely wasn't the fastest T-Bred, but he found the winner's circle on numerous ocassions. His racing record must be respected.

Hurt in the Derby and 4th in the Juvy. Not all that bad IMO.

How could you dislike a face like this?

Eh... 15 lengths or so? LOL

In his defense, Street Sense blew by everyone, not just him.

Bottom line he won G1's at 2 and 3, which you can't say about Jazil or Bluegrass Cat. In this day in age, he deserved to be respected for that alone. I understand that you were not a fan, but to dismiss his accomplishments is a mistake.
