When did Ghostsprinter first become great? Was it in the Vosburgh where he beat Aggadan by 6? Aggadan has never won a graded stakes. Posse was in that race and finished a length behind Aggadan. Not sure Posse ever ran again.
Was it the Tom Fool where he beat Aggadan again by 4 lengths and Unforgettable Max by seven? Everyone beats Unforgettable Max by 7 sprinting though.
Was it the wet Track Iselin where he beat Presidential Affair by 10? Hard to say, Presidential Affair just got beat near that badly the other day by Eddington.
Was it the neck decision over Saint Liam with Bowman's Band back 9 lengths in third? Was that Bowman's last race or did he go one more? Great Ghostzapper seems to be catching lots of horses in their last race doens't he?
Was it the Breeders Cup Classic where he negotiated a pace with Ramsey and ran over the best part of the track while nearly the whole field encountered tough trips, injury or retirement?
Ghostsprinter has caught some decent breaks in this Met Mile. He's very lightly weighted and the field is not stellar. If he wins this one by 6 though we can start calling him Great.
