No excuses for Bernardini !!!

[pmayjr]

I agree DaHoss. What if he just wasn't good enough?

I could run with all my heart vs. Carl Lewis, but in the end he'll still smoke me in the 100 year Dash. AND YES THIS ANALOGY DOES APPLY TO YESTERDAY.

So I don't understand all of this "Bernie has no heart" talk. And to set the record straight, I'm a longshot player who was trying to beat him. So I'm not trying to make any excuses on the basis of wagering here. I just hope we can see them go head to head 1 more time. Now that Bernie has this one under his belt, let's see how he responds.

If they were to meet up again, and Invasor romps again, are you still gonna say "He's got no heart", or are you gonna say "Invasor is just better"? But I hope we get 1 more time to see... Otherwise- BRING ON DISCREET CAT

Damn guys he is a three year old. You think he has peaked? Bernadini is a very good animal but inexperienced in battle. He just got a lesson. He stayed out of the cavalary charge that is the Kentucky Derby. He ran against small fields. If he would keep on running, I could easily see him becoming a great horse.

right....he is a 3yo. that is why he was carrying 4 lbs less than invasor. but even with that advantage he still didn't show anything when invasor ran up to him.
as for him being a great 4yo. that is no sure thing. look no further than the 3yo last year that (like bernardini) followed up victories in the jim dandy and travers with a second place in the bcc. flower alley regressed considerably this year because apparently, he just stopped trying. same thing could easily have happened to bernardini if he had kept running

i'm glad to know you guys are at least consistent. in your minds, even after yesterday....it is still completely improper to question bernardini.

Sure that can happen. I just think Bernardini is a much better horse all the way around.
