King Glorious, how about you respond with four horses beaten by Zenyatta and Curlin combined this year that would be better horses than these four:

Colonel John
Denis of Cork
Eight Belles
Tale of Akati

What would be the point? All you will say is that the four aren't better than the four you named. But what the hell............

I know, I know. You don't even have to say it. I know that all of those horses that I mentioned are grade one and grade two winners, some of them of multiple races, and that doesn't compare to what Denis of Cork and Eight Belles did in their careers but I thought I'd mention them anyway.

Honestly, the list you provided are not better than the four I named.

Honestly, the best two horses you probably named were Proudinsky and Shakis and that is pretty sad.

You're kidding? People are still buying this Colonel John crap after Mambo in Seattle's debacle against Curlin? And Tale of Slowkati around two turns? What exactly did Denis of Cork accomplish this year? You have to be kidding.

Correct me if I am wrong but didn't Denis of Cork hit the board in both the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes? Unless you don't consider those two races very important?

Restricted races are meaningless when you are running against a terrible crop. Someone had to hit the board in those races. Doesn't automatically make them a good horse, just better than the crap in their crop.

Once again, when did I ever say any of those horses were "good horses?" I was making comparisons to the other HOY candidates competition and simply making a point that Big Brown belongs in that conversation.
