Even Big Brown's "fast" run was against turf horses off turf in mud...or something like that.

They aren't slow, and I tried to point that out. Just because the figs say they are slow does not mean that they are... Just because the Cali horses are going to take a huge jump in BSFS (like Sierra Sunset did) when they come East does not mean that they have improved.

So, like I said, how does El Gato Malo go from a 99 to an 85 when he runs his guts out in both races?

How does visionaire jump up to a 98 without switching leads while Pyro only got a 95 while beating Visionaire in the Risen Star. Does that mean that I should think that Pyro is slow and that Visionaire is the better horse?

If someone would answer these questions, maybe I would quit spewing the "nonsense" and think that these horses are "slow" too like the rest of you since the figures say so.
