I still will take horses like Accelerate over City everyday.
Just glad it wasn't SATURday!

To use the uk expression, city of light was unexposed, we all knew what accelerate can do at 9f. We had yet to see what COL could do at 9. That 106 Beyer in the last G1 sprint set him up nicely for the race. Basically only had to beat accelarate and he did.
Now they have proved that COL can do two turns and sprint at a high level. They have plenty of options for future races.
