This is why I like this forum. There are more actual horsepeople on here that know the game than just a bunch of people that like them cause they are so pretty. I've been bringing up this topic for years now. I remember when Eddington won the Pimlico Special and it just sickened me. The only reason he won it was because every single horse that SHOULD have been there and WOULD have been there had this been the late 80's to the late 90's.....was gone. Either they were retired, injured, or just resting. Yet, he won it and everyone thought all of a sudden that this made him a good horse. U try to tell some people that just because Flashy Bull or Colonial Colony won this race doesn't make them a legit grade one horse and they'll argue that it does. To me, a legitimate grade one horse is one that u could drop into any era and they would be competitive with just about any other horse.
