I botched the thread title.
I can't do anything correct today. Someone test me for Bath Salts.

These results smell fishy. Current/recent wonderhorses Frankel, Black Caviar, Goldikova, IHA, Shackleford all lose?

Afleet Alex did at least beat Silver Charm...but other than that, the right horse won in a surprisingly high number of instances. The person from the Paulick Report who choose the top 64 horses and made the seedings looks more dopey than the Internet voters.

Excellent points on all counts on Afleet Alex. My appreciation has grown for the horse in spades by the two minutes it took to read this thread.
