CH,
The more I think about your post, the more I disagree.
How many horses has Beyer gone into the 120's on in the past few years?
Ghostzapper and Bellamy Road. I think that's it. And by now, everybody except Chuckles the Clown and Silver Charm, realize Ghostzapper is a very fast horse.
Beyerguy is right, there were similar 120+ numbers for Skip Away, Formal Gold and Will's Way. I actually thought Groovy was 132, but I could be off on that.
Beyer called this year's group of the 3 year olds, the worst in years. Jerry has 4 of the 5 fastest 3 year olds ever in this year's class. (That was before the figure from Saturday's Peter Pan, which has the potential to be big....)
There is a difference between the two views.
