Far better than any other horse as a 2 and now a 3 year
old. If this horse stays sound, draws well, and the Derby
track plays fast like many times in the past he does not
get caught.

Who in the devil does not like this horse?

i just think it's strange that his effort today is the complete opposite of every race he's ever run before. yeah, not as suspect company as a few weeks back, but this horse did a 180 compared to his usual effort. had he lost by just a bit, that would tell you that maybe the field had caught up to him maturity-wise. but this was certainly an anomaly for him. and unless your name was seattle slew, smarty jones or majestic prince, you've suffered a loss at some point leading up to the first saturday in may.

we'll see how he comes back. if he comes back.

one good effort doesn't make a champ, and one bad one doesn't mean you're not.

He might have the title of Ultra Mush, seriously, any free square he talks about always runs poorly....

I haven't seen a 3 year old that's superior.Pyro is consistent,but I think somebody can get by if they run their race,or get the pace they've been lookin' for all their life.
