The Breeder's Cup was hardly a difficult trip. Lesser horses than Bernardini have overcome much worse trips. Bernardini was exposed for what he is. A very good 3-yr-old. Probably the best 3-yr-old this year. But not a horse-for-the-ages.

If you have watched the horse's races critically, you would have realized by the half mile in the BCC that the horse was not on his A game.
