You Easy Goer fans will never get over the fact that Sunday Silence was 3-4 over Easy Goer and the only time he lost it was on Easy Goer's home track at 12 furlongs on a track that mysteriously became heavily biased towards outside closers on Belmont Stakes day - not that a certain ownership could have influence over track nmaintenance in NY.

You guys see with your hearts instead of your heads.

SS had greater tactical speed, more brilliance/acceleration, the ability to handle tight turns better, the versatility to handle wet and dry tracks, and the ability to win around the country instead of just in NY.


Easy Goer was better at 12 furlongs at home on a tiring track and occasionally put up a very fast figure against 3rd string 3YOs and older horses.
