I think the comparison is kind of a reach considering Hot Dixie Chick was a 2 year old. Every year we see 2 year olds that have matured quicker than their counterparts win big and then when the rest catch up, they are brought back to reality.

I don't know if I view Bellamy Road in the same light as some in the thread, but he was freaky good when he was healthy enough to make it to a race.
