Without question. But, I also believe he was one of the most talented horses I have ever seen. Unfortunately, he never got a fair chance to show it. Shocking that Ed Sexton wasn't able to prolong his career.

i agree with you on this as well. i thought bellamy roads wood was an astounding performance. some would say what did he do after-but his race before the wood was awesome as well. then he was injured in the derby, but then came back and showed tremendous ability and willingness in the travers. made we wish for more.
such a shame that he was unable to come back after that.
