I would say that these races highlight different aspects of Invasor.
The BC win was awesome, coming very wide around that turn, bumping with another horse, and running down Bernardini. It was a huge field although I wouldn't say that the also rans were necessarily any better than the ones that ran yesterday. Actually i feel the ones yesterday are better. Yesterdays race was run in a different style, and ended up being a real speed fest finish. I can't wait to know the speed figures. I sense that they are going to be way up there.

Right now there is nobody to really challenge Invasor. Hopefully he keeps running well into the fall and is able to defend his title in the BCC. Then by that time one of the 3yos might have emerged as a legitimate G1 10f horse. If that happens, and Invasor defeats that animal, he will move to another level and perhaps will enter the discussion as one of the greats.
The fact that he continues to pile up wins in big races is no doubt impressive, but right now his signature victories have come over Premium Tap and the incredibly over-hyped Bernardini. He doesn't HAVE to defeat another great horse to be considered great in my opinion, but if he doesn't, than he needs to continue to demonstrate his dominace for the rest of the year to enter the discussion of all-time greats. He sure is impressive though. Last edited by miraja2 : 04-01-2007 at 02:35 PM.
