Upper Nile--

I stand corrected. You definitely did not say that you played any of Frankel's horses on Saturday. As I have mentioned in a previous post, I have a tough time logically explaining how a top trainer like Frankel can have a 2-57 (3%) record in the Breeders Cup.

It certainly raises some doubts in at least my mind as to what is going on differently during the year (20-30%, record # of GR I wins, etc.)that consistently does not go on in the BC.

As for SIGHTSEEK, you'll never see a horse put up two negative 3 performance ratings any easier. I don't buy the explanation she was peaking/over-the-top/bounced...etc..or whatever the other explanations for SIGHTSEEK have been on this site.

Anyway, you certainly are entitled to your opinion on what you think causes Frankel's problems on BC days. Unfortunately we may never find out which side is right.


Good Luck,
Joe B.
