A wall comes up because of Bernardini's win in the Preakness. I think of that day as a dark one and I can't get past it. I think if Bernardini had not run in the Preakness I may be more on his bandwagon. Call me crazy...

see.
I dont even think of the Preakness when thinking Bernardini.

its Saratoga.

He was never asked at all in winning 2 of the most historically significant 3YO races on dirt.

this horse is a total freak.
he is what I think Mineshaft would have been if allowed to run on dirt as a 3 YO.
only difference is that this horse really has more natural speed than Mineshaft did.

there are no holes in his game.
any pace scenario is fine b/c he will just adapt.
hes smarter and faster than his peers.
at least the ones he has run against so far.
