It should be noted that he is running as a 4 year old this year.

That said, I am probably also in the "you need at least 10 starts to be an all-time great" camp. Up till then you've simply had brilliant/great performances in my book. Others are welcome to have lower thresholds.

My all-time greats also wear the same silks every race once they start reeling off those great performances, and their ownership line doesn't need an "et al." at the end. (Get off my lawn!)
