I don't hold injuries against horses, any horse.

Again, this must just be a comprehension thing because its becoming consistent.

You cant hold injuries against horses. But at the same time, you cant hypothesize what they "would have" done if not injured. The fact is, soundness has a lot to do with how much a horse accomplishes.

You look at pure talent when defining "greatness". Thats fine. I look more at what they accomplish on the track. Neither is right or wrong.
