Hey Cajun,
At least his career can go forward in the "All Boy Horse Choir", neighing at a higher pitch.
Future life as a teaser. Ain't we all?

Bernardini's mother was a damn good horse however.

That's arguable, considering that Cara Rafaela had a "giant" 4 wins from 24 starts, and never won past her 2YO season, and didn't even get a placing after her 3YO season.

Numbers are not the end all to determine if a guy was "great".

Pat Day has the numbers.....but he couldnt wash either McCarron's or Cordero's jockstraps.



Clearly you arent worth wasting my time on.......adios

I dont believe Baze or Gall won 9 triple crown races and 12 breeders cup races. Did McCarron or Cordero win that many?

I think Cordeo retired early in the BC era. He can't have numbers there, but I can rattle off TC wins like Bold Forbes KY Derby and Belmont, Codex Preakness, etc.. Angel Cordero is my personal favorite.

Cordero is one of the best along with Pat Day and a few others. Instead of telling me someone wasnt great, tell me why. Why is Cordero better Day? Why is Day better than Bailey? Tell me why.

I have not compared or contrasted anyone. Others did that here. My liking of Cordero stems from the fact that he rode my all-time favorite horse and I was lucky enough to talk to him about that horse. That horse was Cordero's favorite horse, as well. Of course I am speaking of Seattle Slew.
