![]() No because I would never include Rombauer and good horse in the same sentence. I also am not all that big on Hot Rod Charlie, Mandaloun, or Midnight Bourbon. All nice horses but I don’t believe they are in the same league as Life is Good and Flightline. I don’t think Essential Quality was either. Hell, he lost to Medina’s Spirit twice and we saw how Life is Good toyed with him. Since I’m not in the camp that says the only way a horse can be considered good is if he excels at 10f and faces 20 horse fields and runs 15 times a year, I’m just going to be forced to believe that Life is Good and Flightline are good horses and if they only run 4-5 times this year, I’ll enjoy those 4-5 races much more than watching inferior horses run 10 times.
