I loaded-up on a dappled-out schooler at Gulfstream the other day. The horse faded to last. I remembered around the 16th pole why physical handicapping only works when you do it everyday, and see the same horse everyday. This is not a knock on Steve at all, but more general.

That is a terrific point. I was totally unimpressed seeing Summer Bird school in the paddock before the Haskell, thought he looked like a bag of bones...problem is I don't know if that was just his look...obviously he ran a terrific race against Rachel that I didn't see coming.
