While I wont be betting him or rooting for him in the BC Classic, I still appreicate this horse and its very possible he is the greatest horse to have ever run. Whos to say otherwise? I wouldnt judge his races by times, lengths of the wins or who hes beaten. Bernardini runs fast enough to win vs the competition (if you call it that).

I think it is irresponsible to pretend something happened that didn't. Sorry, but I find a lot of what I have read about Bernardini to bear little resemblence to reality. Wanting a horse to be good is fine, but pretending one has done something it hasn't, for the sake of drama, is irresponsible. That is what is going on in this article...IMO.
