Odds Bernardini Races As A 4 Year Old?

[Danzig]

who knows...maybe someday they'll be saying 'he's the best since bernardini' ... 'ah, he's no bernardini...'
i knew bernardini, bernardini was a friend of mine...you sir are no bernardini.

There are those who will not acknowledge excellence, no matter what. I was at the Meadowlands in 1979 or 1980. I am not sure of the date right now. I do remember that The Bid was being honored as a great runner on the same night that the harness superstar Niatross was being honored. Each was being paraded around the track; Niatross was the recipient of cheers and Spectacular Bid was the recipient of jeers. He was paying for his trainer's bragging. I cannot understand that behavior. The horse was a true champion, someone special. How can anyone actually dislike a horse? It is like disliking Lassie or Elsa the Lioness. Animals bring so much to our lives. Anyway, I am rambling, but I swear that there are people who dislike Bernardini because he is not Barbaro. Seattle Slew suffered this because he was not Secretariat.

I definitely agree with you theire. I don't understand how they can be like that either. I mean how can you like racing without liking the all of the horses that run?

I don't think anyone is saying he's not a great 3 year old, but you're comparing him to a horse who was Champion 2-Year-Old Colt, 1978.
Champion 3-Year-Old Colt, 1979,Champion Older Horse & Horse Of The Year, 1980, when he went undefeated, (nine for nine). 3 years of dominance.

putting the chicken in front of the egg....and the great thing about horse racing us bs'ing on here doesn't hurt their feelings one bit.
