One word answer.
LAST
I would probably rank him a little below average on that list but I certainly wouldn't rank him last.

His performance today surprised me. I thought he was the horse to beat but I thought it was a competitive field. I thought he deserved to be the favorite but I thought he should have been the 5-2 favorite, not the 6-5 favorite. I was totally wrong. He blew them away. He won like a 6-5 shot.

This is too funny. You were going on about how great a race it was and using your imaginary Beyers to support that, then when you are told the accurate figure, Beyers are meaningless and subjective.

I did not go on and not one told me an accurate figure... I said likely 110-115, you said something that I ignored lol. Where did I go on? Every single time you say anything to me, your wrong.

You say this, and then when I don't respond to your posts or PMs seriously, you cry about how I'm just trying to clown you.

You're losing it. You used Beyers to back up your contention that it was a great race, then several others and I showed you why the Beyer wouldn't be close to the number you pulled out of your ass, and suddenly Beyers are meaningless to you. It was a mediocre race by any metric, so deal with it.
