Relying on the grade of the race as your only argument is silly. If you want to make a case for Taiba over Epicenter, you should let us know who he beat — which he did beat some solid horses this year.
Does anyone believe that Taiba’s “Grade 1” win in the Santa Anita derby, for example, was a better accomplishment than any of Epicenter’s Grade 2 wins or even Grade 1 place finishes?
