Many wondered with his sprinting lineage whether he had the chops to truly complete the crown.. He showed well at the Belmont that he's a deserving Champion, putting away the race down the stretch.. You can also throw out his Preakness time with the slop they ran in.. He's not one of the greatest horses but one that seemed to get better throughout the chase..

he wins every year expect 2001 (point given) and 2007 (curlin, street sense, rags to riches hard spun, any given saturday, etc). he's better than big brown and he's not oin steriods like big brown was


i could give a flying frick about the final times. horses aren't running against stop watches they are running aginist other horses.



going into the triple crown everyone in racing was saying this was the deepest crop of 3YO's since at lest 2007 and it was. Durtmond, Firing Line, Upstart, etc are all really really good horses. Pharoah is just running them in the ground
