Ok. If you want to be technical. He's also won a grade one at 9f, despite what the official record shows. We all saw the race.

OK, but she still won one at 7F, 8F, and 9F...and she didn't get disqualified for a drug positive in any of them. It's OK to admit you were wrong. Really.

I was wrong. I knew what she had won. I was saying much of the same things about her as I say about Charlatan. The point was that she is a lightly raced horse that has faced physical challenges, just like he has. She has shown a ton of talent at shorter distances but also has shown enough talent to stretch it out to 9f, as he has. I think she’s nearly a mirror image of him as far as on track performance.
