Lance,
Thanks, I forgot what a great race that was between two terrific horses, Sunday Silence and Easy Goer.Have to agree the NY bias gave EG the ink but Sunday Silence was better because of his superior gate quickness and overall athleticism. That was the difference in the scorecard 3-1 for SS.Very similar to Alydar/Affirmed, NY Alydar the media darling, Affirmed the superior all around horse.
Interesting in looking back at Sunday Silence and Easy Goer's derby TG figs, both were app 10 lenghts slower than GIACOMO !!
