How can you connect w/that type of horse? People connect w/him, but just for now. He is a horse of his time, quickly forgotten.

It would have been spectacular to have seen him hook w/another horse early, go nose to nose, stride for stride, crack of the whip for crack of the whip in a thrilling stretch drive and show that what he has compares to those that have demonstrated they truly have it. This one, don't think so. I was at the Bloodhorse site the other day and the headline mentioned something about his "legacy"; kidding me, right?

Read today horse is back in training, so not all is lost, he still has time to show he has the right stuff.

I will, once again, pose the unanswered questions: Where do Justify's Kentucky, Maryland and NY final times rank compared to those that ran before him? How would you rank him when compared to the previous 12 Triple Crown Champions?



Sunday Silence . . .

Both highlighted quotes also laughably inaccurate. Beat what was hailed as the best 3 yr old crop in years and won the triple crown so he no longer has to prove anything to anyone. If Justify doesnt have the "right stuff" then none of us know what the "right stuff" is.
