Touché. That argument is baseless.

Lewis Michael and Henny Hughes faced off once this year. Who got the better of that matchup?

Proves nothing.

Plus, I already admitted earlier this thread that EC is a better horse, just didn't when when it counted.

I just think the WHOLE YEAR needs to be taken into consideration and when you do that, BOTH TTM and EC had more complete years than did MA.

ALL 3 ran some not so good races

Well Ole Tinny did run that not so good race in the Dubai Turf,,,so I dont think that is really a "not so good" race.

running second to a horse that would have been likely odds-on in the BC Turf?

Not a bad race by any stretch.

Somebody please enlighten me as to what race the Tin Man ran that was "not so good" ?

To me his least impressive race was that last race where he was life and death to hold on at odds on. But he still won and most horses on their not so good days would be passed.

David Junior would have beaten any horse in the universe that day in Dubai. Running a game second to him is no disgrace.

Oh believe me, when I said that it was with tounge firmly in cheek. Tinny ran no worse than 2nd this year, and that came to a very,very nice horse, that the connections decided to try the dirt for some strange reason. Maybe that made the 2nd look less than spectular?? maybe? I just think its crazy.

Tim, yes he won the Clement Hirsch...all out to hold off TH Approval. Then take into consideration how God Awful TH ran in his next race out...the Clement Hirsch came up kinda weak...
