Thats his 4th grade 1 win of the year. 6 in total, 2 on turf. Unbelievably consistent animal who still gets knocked on here for beating Perfect Drift, Magnum, Super Frolic, and a few others who I guess are a cut below horses like Flower Alley, who gets big time notoriety for beatng Bellamy Road off a huge layoff and the ridiculously overrated Roman Ruler.

So I guess he wont be validated until he wins outside of CA, meaning the BC Classic. Okay, so if Flower Alley wins the Woodward that wont count for anything because NY is his homestate and he only beat Sun King, who if you think is a world beater, well then I have a professional baseball team in Alaska waiting for you to buy.

Yeah, where were you the last few days, we've already hashed out the Eastern bias bull**** that exists. If this was an East Coast horse everybody would be sporting woodies over him, instead it's just ho-hum that a horse for the first time in 20 years has won a Grade 1 on turf and dirt, actually gets in the starting gate more than 3 times a year and is UNDEFEATED!!!!! this year, all in stakes!With 4 GRADE 1's!!!!
