I just don't understand the Ghostzapper knockers. At a time when every flash in the pan that appears gets randomly declared " great " Ghostzapper was a horse that dominated his opposition from 6 1/2F to 1 1/4 with eye catching ease and yet some people are grasping onto the " he didn't run enough races " argument. The Vosburgh, The Woodward, the BC Classic and the Met Mile were all Grade 1s, all at different distances, and he won them all impressively and in very good times ( and we're talking relative time here ). Plus, his narrow third in the King's Bishop, while coming from last, and wide, on a strong inside speed favoring track. If you are unable to see that Ghostzapper was something very special then your mind is clouded by undetermined personal animosity.

Ghostzapper was the goods....and he proved it conclusively a number of times.
