Afleet Alex doesn't lug in with a few jumps left and he's probably your first Triple Crown winner since 1978. That being said, I know there are many DT-ers who don't think much of Afleet Alex.

I still can't believe he didn't go down in the Preakness. A truly athletic horse. And he was very good short and long. I was impressed. Not as much as by Smarty but yes.
