btw, i know this is slightly off topic, but artax, imo, was a vastly underrated racehorse. i really do believe he was better going two turns, and would have proven it with handling that ranked anything better than the absolute moronic management he received at the hands of bradshaw and ernie p.
i still cant believe bradshaw ran him against IC and RQ when he knew he was anemic!
