big brown is a decent horse in a horrible crop... last year hes not even top 5.

Hard Spun was a pretty good horse - but he didn't accomplish as much as Big Brown. I don't think he was much faster, either. He was PROBABLY better but I don't know and it doesn't really matter either way. Grasshopper sucks and I'm not even going to entertain the notion that he is/was better than Big Brown. The funny thing is that I don't even like Big Brown - but his best races (KY and FL Derbies) were decent races compared to last year's crop.
