That said, I'd like to be the first to congratulate Beyer for nailing the Ancient Title figure that was later proven by Thor's Echo winning the Sprint and the DeFrancis. What a figure that was!

P.S. Damn you guys with the page numbers, now I have to switch my settings to show oldest first so I can keep up!

What exactly is the statute of limitations on the Summit of Speed from 2003? And, by the way, didn't the horse that won the Vanderbilt, Private Horde I believe, compete against Shake You Down on that day? I guess his figure should have been.....faster? And, didn't Valid Video have a perfect rail trip, on a gold rail, just off blistering fractions when he got lucky to win the King's Bishop?

Funny what people choose to remember. I guess one wrong split variant makes the whole concept dangerous. Also funny to hear about this from anyone that uses the Thorographs....where they split the variant constantly ( not to say they are wrong ).
