Default Quality Road's (negative) 7.5 fastest Thorograph fig ever

Not sure if I agree with that assessment, even if the margin of victory agrees with something close to it. Jerry Brown on TVG right now discussing it and says he "hates giving out numbers like this."

Did Secretariat get a -7.5 from Jerry Brown? Case closed!

That's why he gives them out every other year.

Left Bank ran the fastest TG number ever in Mid 2002

Congaree ran the fastest TG number ever in Nov of 2002.

Mineshaft ran the fastest TG number ever in a race where Perfect Drift beat him.

Ghostzapper ran the fastest TG number ever.

Midnight Lute ran the fastest TG number ever.

Quality Road is the 6th horse since '02 to run the fastest TG number ever.

Fer f*cks sake, Joe. I'm a STUD too, but you don't hear me proclaiming I'm one of the all time greats of the past whatever years.

I'm assuming you think Rock Hard Ten was an asbsolute stud too?
