How long was the Vosburgh 7F? I always remembered it as 6 1/2, at least the last 10-15 years.

Not a very good memory Phil.

It was seven furlongs for the first 63 runnings....from 1940 - 2002. In fact, when Ghostzapper won it in 2002 it was the only time it was ever run at 6 1/2 furlongs.

His universe is Zapper-centric.

He's just not old like me.

Hell, I remember when My Juliet beat Bold Forbes in 1976.

HA! Probably right.

They caved to the "prep for the BC" stuff, I guess.

If Discreet Cat were to crush the field in the BCC at Monmouth it would be another story, which if he were a good as he is being billed he would easily do. I prefer to pile on the accolades after the great performances are documented. The victory over two opponents in the Cigar was a very fast mile, but I don't think it quite puts one in the rarified air just yet.

He's good, but he ain't Ghostzapper.
