I must say that I loved the results of the Blue Grass. I would also say that I think it's interesting that someone would use War Pass' rebound performance in the Wood as an example of a horse bouncing back off a poor performance when many people are calling this year's Wood one of the worst grade one's they've seen. He finished second but I don't think it was a good performance.

I hate Pyro and still say that he can't beat War Pass.

who are some of the 'many people' saying the wood was one of the worst? i believe randy moss said pretty much the exact opposite, that the track was playing very slow, that it was faster than many realize.
i think some are discounting the race since they thought war pass wasn't that good, and since he ran well that day, they have to make out that it was a bad race in order to still be 'right' about the two year old champ.
