That is absolutely fair, but it is frustrating that I am being attacked because I love Bernardini. Please go back and read any/some/all of my posts and tell me exactly where I compared Bernardini to ANY great horse. I think it is way too premature (as I have stated numerous times), but I think he's got scary ability. Who knows what's going to happen? I'm just excited about Bernardini's potential.

That being said, I take offense at snide comments that I love the horse so much that I can't be unbiased. Personally, I think some people are bending over backwards to not give Bernardini any credit for anything (and I don't mean those people who are saying "hold on, he's not great yet") but I don't personally attack them.
