If people think that Bernardini was better than Smarty.....fine. He was certainly a quality colt. But to say that Smarty couldn't "have got Bernie out of a jog" again demonstrates that despite Bernardini's considerable talent, he is probably the most overrated horse in quite some time.
I know, they were both very talented colts. I think that if they ever faced off Smarty wouldn't like it that much. It is stretching it a little saying that he couldn't get Bernie out of a jog. Forgive me, I've been watching the debates, and I can't help myself from stretching the truth
