Easy Goer's record three year old mile of all time in 1:32.2, thrashing Secretariat's record by one full second and a tick off Dr. Fager's world record, and this devastating,monster,second fastest Belmont Stakes of all time, are the two greatest performances by any horse since Spectacular Bid in 1980, and Easy Goer's 89'Whitney and Travers are truly not far of these two performances.

Easy Goer, this is the greatest performance in any Triple Crown race since Secretariat almost 40 years ago, and Easy Goer had these all time performances at all distances, from sprints to mile to routes to the European and worldwide classic distance of 12 furlongs. And great point on NY being totally drug free back then, while every other state in the US was not.

"Easy Goer met those expectations and dreams embodied in his powerful chestnut frame and authored an unforgettable Hall of Fame champion career, and will always be mentioned in the same breath with the GREATEST horses of ALL TIME." Bloodhorse 1999. Could not state it better.

It is/was no mystery why Beyer stated that "from a speed-performances standpoint, Easy Goer ran even faster and better than Slew,Affirmed and Bid, at the ages of two and three years old."

Easy Goer needs to be on ESPN's Sports Science to measure how fast he really ran and I bet the doubters would shut up!!!???

[DELMARCLUB1]

Easy goer ran these top ten all time performances and he ran these top ten all time performances many,many times in his career at every distance he ran,6.5F,7F,8F,9F,10F,12F!

@footyunit Easy Goer ran without chemicals no lasix were allowed in New York back then that was the reason Sunday Silience didnt run in the Jockey Club gold cup

[EASYGOER4LIFE]

Easy Goer, a once in a lifetime horse , one of the true all time Hall of Fame rare greats that come along once in a lifetime, who combined wicked record speed at a mile and at shorter distances, with a thoroughly brilliant and genuine stamina, and ran every distance in between brilliant.

Easy Goer proved his worth at the hardest race of them all, but love Sunday Silence, beautiful horse. They both were great.

Easy Goer, just colossal performance after colossal performance in his lifetime filled with colossal performances. Not many greats ran these colossal performances at sprint,mile,route and stamina distances, but Easy Goer did. It is also amazing to think how many lengths Easy Goer was in front of Secretariat in that Gotham record mile, and under a total hand ride.
