Look at the last two weeks in the handicap division. Indiana Derby, Hawthorne Gold Cup, Pegasus, Kentucky Cup Classic, Goodwood and next week the Meadowlands Cup. It's not like the horses aren't there, they just don't want to run against Bernardini. What does that tell you?

Tells me that Zito is a pretty sharp guy, getting 2d and 3d yesterday and picking up about a quarter million dollars or so for his owners from a race neither horse had a shot in hell of winning.
I'm really looking forward to seeing Bernardini having a tough challenge or overcome a bit of trouble.
