I didn't hear Karl had retired. I was wrong about him ending his career as the greatest trotter ever.

When you trip out as the 3/5 favorite and only win by a length or so--that proves he is NOT the "greatest ever"

he only has another 4 or 5 races left-so time is running out

Correct. Like I said I probably posted 30 times Karl will end his career as the greatest trotter ever. Unlike you, smart people understand the post. It must really suck to go through life at a 3rd grade reading level.

How do you measure greatness?

Greatness in my opinion is measured by continually beating the best of your era. I thought Sebastian K was great because he not only destroyed the best here but also did it in Europe.

That is why in my original post I stated Peace Corps is the greatest ever.. multiple breeders crowns Almost 6 million in earnings and she dominated here and Europe. The only place she failed was in the breeding shed

Nevele Pride won 57 of 67 races--is that not continuing to beat horses from your era?
Mack Lobell won 71 of 94 races--does that not qualify?
