Richi, let me ask you a question, if I may. Do you think in the Arlington Million that EC was compromised by he far outside post position, then he was bumped even wider out of the gate by Cacique and then raced 3 wide for most of the race?? If the roles had been reversed and EC broke from the 2 hole made an easy lead and led through soft fractions and TTM had the same type trip as EC did, would TTM have done any better than EC did???? Would any horse have done any better than EC did that day??

Anyone that thinks that Cacique is that much better is fooling themselves. They didn't see the way that EC ran by him in the UN like he was standing still.
