Not to worry, no one can look him in the eye they said.

Really?

I'm happy for Kiaran, what a great trainer this guy is!!
Agree, ArlJim. Things are different in big fields with lots of competition the whole way around.

If they go ahead and retire him now, at least they can't say "there's nothing else to prove". Nothing against Bernardini. He ran a super race, and finishing 2nd in the BC Classic can hardly be called a disgrace. But to say he's the best thing we've seen in decades was over the top for the amount he'd raced.
