Are you serious man? I thought you were only like 20 years old!

Do you really have kids? No sarcasm here, I just had no idea you were old enough to have a six year old.

As Jerry has posted the number on his board I feel free saying.

A neg 7.5 in a route race. Astounding number.

I look forward to the day when all TG numbers are negative.
But they still have the best trainer and sire stats anywhere.

Yeah .. they aren't a good tool for comparing horses from different generations - unless you really believe that Recapturetheglory would trounce Easy Goer and Sunday Silence with disdainful ease.

I have no real problems in general with how they make their final time figs on a day-to-day basis - and they do have great stats.

For me its not difficult to believe that horses run faster than they used to. People do, why not horses....But I'm not using them to compare generations.
