as for sharp humor, i guess you(ateam) and i are reading different posts. seems the only time i really see him mentioned is an occasional pick, and by ateam to knock those who like barbaro. such bitterness.

I dunno how you could whine about what he beat, he beat a good field.
I just don't know if anyone besides me ever watches undercards and realizes how incredibly fast this track was playing.
Great race yeah, but when you have ole Bark going in 1:21:3 on the same card, well I mean, do you need to be a rocket scientist to see how fast the track was?
using his raw time to try and prove hes Dr Fager isn't logical.
great horse yeah no doubt. I dunno about anything more than that.

Anybody complaining about him equaling or setting the record on today's track because it was extraordinarily fast, which it was, doesn't remember the track the day Easy Goer set the record. That track was the same kind of highway.

Believe me, I loved Easy Goer, and hate to see him lose any record, but if it was going to happen at least it was a super talented horse like Discreet Cat. I doubt there is any shame in sharing a record with him.
