It just gets tiring to hear about controversy over every little misstep.
Secretariat beat 21 rivals on his way to the Triple Crown in 1973. Justify just fended off 37.
The new standards and criticism will never be met.

Man , am I with you there.
Everything is scrutinized.
Could you imagine the blow back if Chad trained Restoring Hope and he DID lay all over Justify and Gronk had caught him?
It seems this stuff will come up no matter what.
I don't care for it at all. But like you, we all want "fair".
I guess you can't have one without the other these days. Yikes !
