No matter how great when the run crazy fast they will react.
Sadler is acutely aware of this as evidenced by the spacing of FLIGHTLINE'S races.
He CAN get beat. They all can get beat.
IMO if FLIGHTLINE loses it's because he's unsound.
He's never been sound. Not many would be running that fast.

Agree with Vic, the only way Flightline gets beat is if he gets injured.
The spacing gets mentioned, this race next week will be his first start since September 3, only 63 days after the Pacific Classic. That is by far the least amount of times he will have between starts. Sadler says that the horse needs 30 days to recover before training, can you win the Breeders Cup Classic with such light training, leaving just 33 days to run that next 127 beyer? He will need to bring his A game to a track that he's not that familiar with for a trainer with a 1 for a gazillion Breeders Cup record. The only bets I'd make on the race would be chancing Flightline getting beat. Especially with all the hype Fanduel TV and ABR have put on the horse, there are other fantastic horses in the race.
