Or you could look at it objectively and recognize his performance was a phenomenal one in defeat...

I can...the idea that it was the most impressive horse in defeat is hard to imagine over the course of 2 days...I always feel that Euros in general have short man's syndrome in a big way. It was evident way back on the ESPN board as well. It is an illness.

Hard for me to say it was better than Will Take Charge. He ran well, but so did Za Approval and many others. I'd probably pick a few more over him if based strictly on the thread title.
