You are correct, and I should not have brought it (pedigree) up.
My main point was/is that race experience counts for something, and in a field this big the difference between what he (Taiba) experienced at SA versus what he will encounter at CD is like the difference between swimming laps in a pool and swimming in the open seas.
I was reminded of Honor AP's SA Derby when he defeated Authentic in that the race set up great in front of him. After Forbidden Kingdom chucked it, he (Taiba) had just one horse to beat, and he came and got him.
I was acting the fool last night, so if you think he is that good don't let me talk you off of him.
