I remember the sheet numbers on Alydar and Affirmed. Alydar always got the better sheet number, but could never beat Affirmed. If I remember correctly some sheet user wanted to bet $10,000 that Alydar would beat Affirmed. I think it was the Derby. Straight up bet, didn't matter who won race. Affirmed was just a better horse despite the numbers on a graph. More to horse racing than numbers.
