I think back just five or so years ago when Invasor ran down Bernardini... those would have ate yesterday's field for lunch. Ghostzapper might have looked like Secretariat.

And not to mention... Afleet Again is now a Breeders' Cup winner.
It's great fun, its great to bet, the harm it has done to the sport is immeasurable at this point I wish we could go back in time but we can't, we are stuck with the 3000 lb gorilla that we love to come watch once a year but hate to feed 364.
