I understand your argument, thanks. I think and believe MDO's best distances are probably 9 furlongs and less, that I think we both agree on. Now saying that he did finish 2nd 5 times from 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 all grade 1 races. The lowest beyer of 4 races that were beyered was 104 in the Belmont and his beyers ranged from 104-106-117-118. Now beyers don't necessarily mean a horse is great, but I think it is a good measure of his quality in this instance.
