right....he is a 3yo. that is why he was carrying 4 lbs
less than invasor. but even with that advantage he still didn't show anything when invasor ran up to him.
as for him being a great 4yo. that is no sure thing. look no further than the 3yo last year that (like bernardini) followed up victories in the jim dandy and travers with a second place in the bcc. flower alley regressed considerably this year because apparently, he just stopped trying. same thing could easily have happened to bernardini if he had kept running
