IMO Sunday and Easy can be compared to Affirmed and Alydar. The '89 Preakness is the perfect example. It is similar to the '78 Belmont. The reason Sunday is #31 and Easy is #34 is the will to win. In the Preakness the fact that Day gave him one of many sh/tty rides is of little consequence. Easy could run all day as shown in his Belmont and JCGC wins.. The two were hooked for a 1/4 mile in the Preakness and Sunday just would not him him go by. That is the difference between the two...just like A & A....a greater will to win.
