Sorry, I don't think Kip Deville is all that great. He's good but he's been a very lucky horse in some key races. You seem to be forgetting some relative clunkers he has run when he hasn't gotten an absolutely perfect trip.
Einstein's win at the Fair Grounds in 2007 is better than any race Kip Deville has ever run.

I will say that if the 2 horses swapped trainers, that Einstein would be outstanding and Kip would just be OK. Not a knock against H Pitts, I think she is above average and like seeing her succeed. JMO
