4) i have respect for you, regardless of what you may think of me. you were certainly in the bern camp, but you were not one of the more extreme ones. if you feel that calling me names such as "clown" is the best way to go.....fine.
Weren't you touting Mauralakana all week or was that someone else?

You're right though, I was out of line and am sorry for spazzing on you.

Barbaro would have ended up being the better horse
I think he could have handled Invasor

Through all this I was reminded of 1989, when Easy Goer was winning all those races in New York with the same sort of ease that Bernardini had this summer. After the Belmont, he won the Whitney, the Travers, the Woodward and the JCG Cup, which is a bigger and better list than Bernadini racked up. Tom Durkin proclaimed him New York's Horse of the Year. The East Coasters could NOT believe that their darling could be beaten again by that scrawny black thing from California, which had been run down in CA by Prized in a G1 at 10f since. Surprise, surprise, Sunday Silence beat Easy Goer again and Prized displayed his quality by winning the Turf over elders in his first turf outing.
