Too bad I'm on board too late to enjoy him run anymore.
He was helped by the very weak group of older turf horses this year. He is a good horse but this was a really soft year and BC turf in particular.

Sorry Kev...

True, but he did what a good horse should do against that sort of field and crushed them.

No need to be sorry Chuck. He has his BC Turf win and they cant take it away from him. EC may not have been the best turf horse to ever run...but he provided this dumbass quite a few thrills the past few years. I hate to see him retire...but really....he has done enough.

Maybe - ECISGOD would be nice for your new license plate?

Guess most people would just think you were a big Clapton fan...

EC definitely impressed me on Sat.
