Ugh... perhaps I can enlighten you on what 'hanging' means. Hanging is when the horse is in front and just stops trying... how can Sun King be a hanger in his two seconds when he wasn't leading to begin with? He was closing... tough to hang like that.

Hanging to me is also when a horse refuses to pass another one. Not saying that Sun King has done that, but I don't think hanging is just getting to the front and easing up.

Yes. Since when did you have to be on the lead to hang? Perfect Drift is one of the most notorious hangers of all time and many of his near misses were when he was trying to pass a tiring horse, my favorite was when he couldnt get by Peace Rules at Saratoga!

Actually he blew by Peace Rules at Saratoga and hung to Roses in May who finished second to Ghostzapper in the BC Classic.

But, hey, we're not really sticking to the truth here anyway.
