Thank you for a detailed and well reasoned response. My only comment is that
my opinion is that RTR has run her last race; I believe her value has already
been established.
Quirky is an interesting word with regards to Better than Honour's having thrown
Belmont winners (weak or not) in consecutive years, given the past history of
triple crown race winning siblings (no history). It is a strange situation
indeed, that as an unprecedented occurrence, it will be hard to evaluate BTH's
back to back Belmont winner producing double in the scheme of things.
I guess it is just sentimental on my part to think that I may have seen 2
runners who belong to a family which may or may not become legendary. This is
something that will be determined long after I hang up the binoculars.
