I believe Einstein actually ended up running on pretty well in the 2007 Dixie, but couldn't chase down a loose Remarkable News.

It was Cosmonaut, not Einstein, who couldn't chase down Remarkable News. How could I have doubted DrugSy?

Einstein was also the 5/2 favorite in the race where he lost the jock.

I like how he tried to bring up Onion beating Secretariat ... a race that happened way before he was even old enough to pose for Playgirl.

That race was long before I was born ... but ... the time of that race didn't seem so impressive ... and Rule By Reason finished 3rd beaten just 1 length. The same Rule by Reason that made 91 career starts and never won a single stake race.

Also ... wasn't Riva Ridge beaten by some 50/1 Witchita Oil horse on the turf that very same week? It feels like "Big Red" probably just didn't fire that day.... but like I said ... that was long before my time.
