Bingo! Five races do not a legend make. If he blows away the Breeders Cup Classic field, we can start the conversation.

Right on srmanuel.

What Secretariat did as a 3yr-old was phenomenal.

you can tell..he keeps his head going in one even motion...and thru the stretch, he stays straight as an arrow...no drifting..no nothing but pure power. Hes won his 5 life time starts by a combined 67 lengths....

Did you want to name one Florida Man? When I start raising TBs I’ve got to name one that. ;-)

Nope ... the name I wanted was “Different Drummer”. I was riding dressage in hunter/jumper territory so definitely riding to the beat of a different drummer. I think I tried a variation of that - turned down. Then I saw that pic of a wild ‘winter ocean’ in the Nat Geo ... perfect ... and they took it!
