The King's Bishop of 2003, I believe he broke poorly and finished like a rocket ship for third at 6-1 no less! Pick him that day and had Valid Video as my longshot. This might have been the race to lead him to "superstar" status. I'm I right?

I actually made my biggest score of the meet that day, maybe the year, boxing Valid Video and Great Notion and screaming for the wire to come.
There was an incredible speed bias that day, and on that basis I tossed the Zapper, who came rolling like a train for 3rd against the bias.
But his greatest race was his BCC, although some would argue his met Mile.
His BCC was a flat out display of raw power.

Both races were phenomenal. I was convinced after the Met that the horse wouldn't lose another race. I was right for the wrong reason unfortunately.
