That was his best race by far. I was stunned that chrome got the lead on him next out.

It was his best, but by far? He ran Chrome down on the square in the BC.
My thing is he hasnt been himself the last 2, and this is probably it for him. Why not go and make them beat you.

Yes, by far. That performance in the Travers was incredible.

Considering what Gun Runner did before and since Dubai, I would say his Travers,BC, World Cup triple is as big a 3 races I can remember one horse running. Sprinkle the Gulfstream race in and it's not really shocking he's lost form a bit.

I don't know what's happened to him, but I doubt it's as easy as saying he's regressed somewhat.

Its hard to figure it all out. The 113 beyer last time really stumps me.

Off the top of my head, I'd guess he doesn't care for the surface. Of course, he did win over it last year. Of course, that was over far weaker.

Yep, stumped is an apt way to describe it.
