listen to frankels comments, pretty funny, Frankel should post on the message board, he would fit right in,
"Frankel said other handicapping figures he uses didn't have Ghostzapper's Iselin any faster than the Tom Fool or last September's Vosburgh. "As fast as he's run, this is not a top for him," Frankel said. "He did that number twice before. It was the same for Midas Eyes."
Frankel was referring to Midas Eyes winning the Grade 1 Forego 10 days after running one of his best speed figures 10 days earlier in an allowance race.
Though Frankel said he doesn't fear a regression in the Woodward, he elected to run Ghostzapper here rather than the Jockey Club Gold Cup on Oct. 2 so the horse would have more time before the Classic on Oct. 30."
