not too hard to believe considering his behavior since they started trying to saddle him....and then his antics in the gate.

It was really nice to see Castellano reach out and and pat him on the neck, before the wire.

Great horse, Great race

I'll bet Cunningham is in a full lather about this point.
His dream has come true, the dominance of the sheiks.

Hahahahaha Good one, Jim! He has a rod from here to Dubai.

Joking aside, I'm still not convinced this horse is the second coming. He has beaten approximately nobody and no one can truly measure this horse against the best or greatest because lets be honest:

A) this 3 yr old crop outside Bernardini and Barbaro is weak, and Barbaro is chillen in the ICU

B) The older horses arent exactly lighting things on fire, either.

Very likely that Bernardini wins the BCC, but in the end, he will be the class of whom he faced and not in the class of some of the greats.

i just give a whole lot of congratulations to the Darley operation. they've earned their success and today was a historic day for them and horse racing.
fastest Travers winning time in 30 years according to Kenny Mayne.

Bernardini did just what I knew he would do...annihilated them. Just to let you know just how fast Bernardini actually was...Flower Alley won the Travers last year in 2:02.76. Just thought that I would throw that out there even though it is a different year. The track may be playing a little faster this year.

unless of course you wanted to compare him to general assembly, than it would be playing slower.....

Well, but his other races haven't been that slow, right... So maybe it just indicates his versatility? He can win easy any number of ways. Sorry if I'm completely off about how to interpret the time.
