I would also say that Strike the Gold was more productive despite only winning another three races and one of them being an allowance. He did win the PImlico Special and Nassau County Handicap in consecutive starts in 1992 and finished 2nd in the Jockey Club Gold Cup the same year, just ahead of subsequent BC Classic winner A.P. Indy.

I'll take that back about SS,I didn't recall those spa victories. I guess all I remembered was both horses finished 4th in the BCC. Strike the Gold's wins trump Giocomo's grade 3. I was too lazy to look it up. I knew I could count on someone to jog my memory.
