In retrospect I don't think he ran a terrible race at all -- 3 lengths from hitting the board in America's richest race. Even with no dirt experience, I think he deserved to be there more than half the field did. Their experiment had a better chance of winning than Flower Alley, Lava Man, Perfect Drift, Lawyer Ron, Sun King, Suave, etc.

There are different discussions here, and I would not say he had no right to be in the race, but to me all that matters is relative chances of winning versus betting odds and regardless of outcome George Washington was a horse who's odds were significantly lower than his actual chances of winning.

I don't think he had a better chance in relation to odds of winning the race than a number of horses you mentioned. To me that is what really matters.
