I get the thrust of your post and parts of it, I agree with.
But you are wrong to suggest Confederate is "just another horse" and another will come along in the following years successively. He will most likely close out the season 12 for 12 and miss an undefeated 3 year old campaign by a head. Tell ya what, I am willing to wager you publicly right now, no 3 year old COLT PACER wins 10 in a row or more next year at the stakes/grand circuit level. No matter who they may be. ( sire stakes excluded ) Since we are not dealing with eachother in person, it will be a Gentleman's bet of honor, witnessed by all on here. Money goes to Charity. Mine will be St. Judes. Well???

grand circuit is too open termed
but yes a 3 year old will win 10 in a row next year at some level somewhere.
pick a year and i can name a horse give a take within a year they said was the greatest thing since sliced bread
it happens all the time
wasnt it just last year we were saying this about bulldog?
or bettors wish the year before?
or tall dark stranger the year before that???
or sbsw as the best ever?
growing up for m it was cams card shark
id tak him over confederate too

At the very top level of racing. Not just any 3 year old at any level. The air that Confederate breathes, I submit no horse will win 10 or 11 or 12 or more in a row as Confederate will. He is going to miss an underrated season by a head. I do have Confederate top ten all time already and will die with that assertion. Yes, Cam's Card Shark is there too. But I believe given Confederate's ability to be comfortable in the 1.47, last half 53 to 54 range, last quarter 26 or better range combined with his durability, his desire to win and his electric, on demand gear box, he would pace with anything that ever lived. When Confederate comes at you with that last 1/8th tucked into a 25.2 last quarter, the horse on the lead better be damned special. The bet is always open to you if interested.
