I really hope people watched and enjoyed that. Flightline is a hell of a horse. The 6f fraction popped up at 1:07 and change. That can't be right.

It sucks he raced by appointment; he should never be confused with all-time great racehorses because he never ran enough to be considered for that company. His 12 minutes on the track identified him as unique a talent as I have ever seen.

Mr Serling, I was wondering if you wouldn't mind, can you give your opinion of Life is Good's race in the Classic and although I know it's only speculation, how do you think he would have done if Flightline wasn't in the race?
Thank you in advance.

People said Medaglia d'Oro couldn't get 10F despite him running his best races at that distance.

I don't think we should allow FLIGHTLINE'S obvious unsoundness take away from what he's capable of doing.
What we saw in the six races was ability that is comparable to any dirt horse ever who is not named SECRETARIAT. Saying FLIGHTLINE would have won SECRETARIAT'S Belmont nonsense. Problem is in this day and age when we get one like this it's very hard to know what he's capable of. There's no competition to make him do his best. His win in the Pacific Classic using whatever criteria you choose was either the best race ever run on dirt or more likely second best to Big Red. MARGIN: 19 1/2 lengths TIME: 1:59.28 COMPANY: COUNTRY GRAMMER a very serious, highly accomplished multiple Grade 1 winner. SPEED FIGURE: A THOROGRAPH negative 8 1/2. A number Jerry Brown said he was extremely conservative with. Quoted as saying it could and may still become as fast as a negative 11. Could still get changed to that. EYE TEST: The move leaving the 3/8th's pole was breathtaking. It's sounds like most are willing to anoint him. But the 6 starts stands in the way. I get that as it relates to accomplishments. But what I saw with my own two eyes and felt with my heart. This is either the best race horse or second best race horse ever to stand on this planet.
