I understand your point though but do u really want to compare First Defence to Surf Cat here?

I will not compare at this point in their careers First Defence to Surf Cat, but if both are entered in this years BC sprint my money goes on First Defense. I would much rather have a horse that can press a 43 and change half and is proven on the Monmouth Dirt than a horse that will have to make up 6-8 lengths in the last quarter mile while having to weave through a half dozen horses on the Monmouth speed favoring dirt (and I am sure it will be "souped up" on BC day) and short stretch. Oh and I would also like the 20-1 or so I would get on First Defence vs the 5-1 Surf Cat would be.
