[EASYGOERFLIES]

Easy Goer was simply the vastly faster racehorse, Easy Goer ran seven or eight 120+ or higher beyers in his career(that is double more than any horse since Bid, including Ghostzapper,Alysheba,John Henry,Cigar,Holy Bull,Skip Away,Curlin,Zenyatta,etc) while SS ran ONE!!ONE!. Easy Goer was the vastly,faster horse and was over deeper,slower eastern tracks, but two despicable rides is what cost him by an inch and desperate neck in two races.

Same thing just in different words from Steve Crist, "If not for the 2 typically atrocious rides that got him beat a nose and desperation neck in 2 races, Easy Goer would be mentioned in the same reverential breath as Man O'War,Secretariat and Citation, and his campaign acclaimed the greatest in racing history."

Clearly the better horse head to head??? Noor beat Citation 4 of 5 head to head. Beau Purple beat Kelso 3 of 4 head to head. Dr Fager lost 2 of 4 to Damascus head to head. Formal Gold beat Skip Away 4 of 6 head to head. Big Spruce beat Forego 2 of 3 head to head. Interco beat John Henry 2 of 3 head to head.Get over it.

But Easy Goer was always undoubtedly a top ten all time thorobred in talent,ability,constitution, record speed-stamina combo, with the clear evidence of this coming from his many,many top ten all time performances in his life at every distance, 6.5F,7F,8F,9F,10F,12F, but the 2 typically atrocious Pat Day rides that got him beat a nose and desperation neck in 2 races vs. an also great in ss, sent him into the thirties where ss always belonged. There is nothing wrong with the thirties, yes.

Surprises you? They all deserve and get credit. Well Citation lost 4 of 5 races to Noor.  Kelso lost 3 of 4 to Beau Purple. Dr Fager lost 2 of 4 to Damascus. Skip Away lost 4 of 6 to Formal Gold. John Henry lost 2 of 3 to Interco. Forego lost 2 of 3 to Big Spruce.

I thought that the quotes of Crist,Beyer,Nack,Haskin,Joe Hirsch,Edwin Pope,Pal Moran mean "nothing"? Which is it?

Andy Beyer: "Easy Goer is ran FASTER and BETTER at the ages of two and three years old than AFFIRMED, Seattle Slew and Spectacular Bid.".....Andy Beyer: On the anddownthestretchtheycome website, said after Pat Day's career was over and Beyer was interviewed, he lamented Day's riding on EG and in general of the man he called Pat "wait all" Day.
