So, with that sound line of reasoning...

Peppers Pride would have beaten both Zenyatta and RA?

If she won against open company on a major, against the best horses in the world, on multiple occasions....YES. Since she just ran against NM breds, you tell me

Oh.

So now that that particular argument is useful for your position, it's ok.

Got it.

Yes, running lines are very important. More important than anything else in handicapping, IMO. Class lines are more true than any speed figure

He's a rabid fan of Brownie Points.

She also CRUSHED Ginger Punch that day.

Wouldn't you kill to own a barn full of Brownie Points? Man, that would be sweet!

Its just what I think, its how Im successful.

I can see using the figure as a light gauge, but past that I think the class of a horse, the running lines, I think that holds much more merit

[Indian Charlie]

So, yes.
