He's got to be trolling.

I'm still nostalgic about when he lectured me about Chatain being a much better router than sprinter last year, because Penna said so - while posting under the PG1985 moniker.

If Commentator won the JCGC and Whitney, I'd hope they'd have enough sense to run him in the Classic instead of the Mile.

he already won the whitney, and based on numbers and speed figures is one of the fastest horses EVER, OR AM I TROLLING ? OR SAYING FACTS THAT NUMBERS BACK UP ?

That was the part that really cracked me up.

How many of these top horses that go bad ever really come back to top form? When I say go bad, I mean like Daaher this year or Flower Alley as a 4yo. Once these good ones throw in a real stinker, even one, that is usually the end.

Commentator is actually probably the best example right now of one that can throw in a real stinker and then come back later to run huge.

He has not run well in the top class races in a few years.

With Commentator, the question is did he go bad or did he just meet conditions that made him look bad then found conditions that made him look great? Each time he's come back later to run huge, it's been against far less than the top competition.

Kinda like top golfers; Seve B. and David Duval.

Great, I got my stupid analogy of the day out of the way early.
