No sweat. So what do you think? Do you think Bernarndini will be better than any other horse that has run in the new millenium?

of course you would- so would i!

but what about Tiznow, mineshaft, dubai millenium or kalinisi? surely they would be in the gate as well.

I agree completly. Any sheets player knows he was crazy fast and anyone who buys into the beyer numbers does also. Saying now that Bernardini is better or will be better than Ghostzapper is absolutely foolish. Comparing a horse who won the BCC in convincing fasion on the front end and ran a sub 1:34 mile off a six month layoff not even mentioning his unreal vosburgh or that out of the clouds move in the kings bishop to a three year old who has never competed against older horses is insane.
