Monday’s (8-3-2015) Power Page and KHSS for Saratoga are ready for download…

It’s truly been a blessing to see such a great horse as American Pharoah win again, in a championship manner.  Full of grace and power.  What is the first criteria for greatness, it’s not simply brilliance.  Brilliance is something is a trait all horses have to some degree, the ones with the most brilliance are often the most easily forgotten.  Here’s a pretty well known name, but if he isn’t a top notch sire, nobody will remember him in 5 years – Uncle Mo.  Who thinks that Eskenderaya or Verazzano were great horses.  They all had brilliance, but none of them had durability.  The ability to train and race, then train and race again and hold their form.   When American Pharoah steps on the track, just as Affirmed, Alydar. Seattle Slew and Secretariat before them – you knew in your bones – you would see something special.  Out of the ordinary – WHOW was what you would expect and almost certainly get.

We needed a Great horse and now we have one again…
