Easy Goer was Cut Off badly by Northern Wolf(it was so bad, his blind in 1 eye jockey JoJo Ladner got suspended 7 or 10 days for it) and had to check and take up sharply during the run by the stands the first time. Then in the homestretch the final time, Dansil drifted into Easy Goer's path causing him to take up again and alter course. All this on a muddy track he spun his wheels on and as Day said, "never even got out of second gear."

a godfather horse that japanese loves forever

So many all-time greats lost the Kentucky Derby and/or at Churchill Downs - Native Dancer, Easy Goer, Damascus, Forego, Holy Bull, Skip Away, Point Given, Go For Wand, Zenyatta, Bold Ruler, Round Table, Nashua, Curlin, Discovery, Sword Dancer, Arts and Letters, Best Pal, and many others.

"Easy Goer met and fulfilled those dreams and expectations embodied in his powerful frame, and authored an unforgettable Hall of Fame championship career, and will always be mentioned in the same breath with the GREATEST of ALL TIME." Bloodhorse,99'. Amazing what a horse like him did do and how many acclaimed,renowned races he ran,even with his unsightly ankles and hating Churchill,and Day's start and stop,start and stop indecisive "total rider error, I got the better horse beat" riding.

The Test of the Champion is the Belmont Stakes. The Classic Distance for the whole world is 12f, 1 1/2 miles.

Crist- "Easy Goer and SS were inches apart but miles ahead of their contemporaries. In the absence of either, each would have been a dominant Triple Crown winner with only history as a benchmark. Instead, each proved each others greatness."

The Sunday Silence vs. Easy Goer rivalry in 1989 probably still remains the best head to head rivalry in American racing since Affirmed and Alydar went at each other hammer and tong back in 1977, IMO. These 2 were pure class, and if not for the misfortune of being born in the same year and having to compete each other in the same Triple Crown races, I think it's likely 1989 would've produced a Triple Crown winner? Because these 2 were head and shoulders above the rest of the 3yr.old's in 1989.

Sunday Silence beat him 3 out of 4 times and the excuses still rained down. The only place Easy Goer beat Sunday Silence was in his own backyard. Sunday Silence never got the respect from the snobs in Kentucky, because he was sired by Halo. He proved them wrong in the Derby, Preakness and BC Classic and then went to Japan to become one of the most prolific sires in history.

so cool, love these horses- i painted a watercolor of Sunday Silence & Easy Goer coming into the finish.

Pat Ron Franklin Esque Day (Pat Wait All Day, Pat Start Stop Start Stop Start Day, Pat a Day late, Pat Delay Day, Pat so passive & patient he could watch a faucet drip for days Day) himself said, "I was on the far superior, far better horse in Easy Goer, but we lost a few photos to him by the slimmest of margins totally due to rider errors on my part. I had FAR MORE HORSE than I knew what to do with. It was totally my fault." Pat ron franklin esque Day (aka Pat Wait All Day, Pat Start Stop Start Stop Start Day, Pat a Day late, Pat Delay Day, Pat so passive & patient he could watch a faucet drip for days Day) got so many superior horses beat - Easy Goer, Sky Classic (in the 1992 Arlington Million & 92 BC Turf), Forty Niner (in the 1988 Kentucky Derby & Lexington), Turkoman (in the 1986 BC Classic), Java Gold (in the 1987 Jockey Club Gold Cup), Rampage (in the 1986 Kentucky Derby), Seeking the Gold (in the 1988 Haskell,Travers & BC Classic), Menifee (in the 1999 Kentucky Derby & Preakness), Heavenly Prize (in the 1994 BC Distaff & 95' Beldame), Surfside (in the 1999 BC Juv Fillies), Timber Country (1995 Kentucky Derby, Santa Anita Derby, etc.), etc., & an endless amount of others. Day's rides were downright despicable. Day's riding was horrendous - start stop start stop start, start check in major traffic start, inside outside way outside as wide as can be, back inside back outside back way outside as wide as can be, back in as tight as can be on the dead rail, turn his head in turn his head out, pull the trigger then fold up & put out the fire of a splendid Hall of Fame Champion in full flame, etc. A lemming could have rode better than Day. "Day is so patient he could watch a faucet drip for days. Day drove many a captain of industry, hard-boot trainer & horseplayer to the brink of rage."

People who saw Hovdey's article & wrote about it DID mention this & other facts. Why did they only focus on Harthill's illegal administration of the diuretic Furosemide to ND & Harthill's introduction & illegal administration AND on Harthill's introduction & illegal use of Clenbuterol in the 1980's? Perhaps, because these 2 drugs became the most widely used, most popular, most influential LEGAL (BOTH) drugs, among numerous other drugs, used. In the Natalie Voss 1/15/2020 article titled, "When It Comes To Lasix (Furosemide) And Federal Legislation, Horse Racing Has Been Here Before," Voss states, "Controversial veterinarian Alex Harthill ADMITTED to using furosemide on Fear A Bit, a runner on the undercard of the 1974 Kentucky Derby , at about 2 p.m. on race day. The horse ran significantly better than he had in his past several starts and officials wanted to know why." That's incorrect & also 10 years after Harthill admitted to Hovdey that he illegally gave the illegal drug to ND. Why didn't Voss mention that, Harthill, in his infamous cloak & dagger doping scheme story, admitted to Hovdey that he illegally gave the illegal diuretic drug to the famous horse Northern Dancer in the actual Derby in 1964 a FULL TEN years prior to an UNKNOWN horse named Fear a Bit who only ran in a meaningless undercard race?? Did Voss NOT want to denigrate the famous Northern Dancer (& his trainer), & so instead only mentioned an unknown horse who ran in a meaningless undercard race a full 10 years later? And no mention of the famous horses (& trainers) Harthill treated in the actual 1974 Derby itself. Did Voss NOT want to denigrate the famous horses (& trainers) who ran in the 1974 Derby? By the same token, Harthill also admitted he gave the same illegal diuretic diuretic drug Furosemide to other famous horses Proud Clarion, Kauai King, Lucky Debonair, Majestic Prince, Forward Pass & Master Derby. Why didn't Voss & others mention these other famous horses (& trainers)? Perhaps, Voss didn't want to denigrate these other famous horses & trainers? Perhaps, because Furosemide became so popular, influential & legal in every state except NY? Perhaps, because ND was the most famous, or the cloak & dagger illegal doping scheme? By the same token, Harthill admitted to Hovdey of illegally giving the famous Sunday Silence the illegal ped drug Clenbuterol (plus the other 2 drugs). Harthill also admitted to Hovdey that he gave the illegal drug Clenbuterol to other famous 80's horses Ferdinand [Whittingham], Spend a Buck, Wild Again, Alysheba, Skywalker, Gate Dancer, Sunny's Halo, Gato Del Sol, Deputed Testamony, Lil E Tee, Black Tie Affair, etc. Why did other articles only mention that Harthill introduced Clenbuterol (mentioned Sublimaze also) in the ‘80s & trainers who knew (or used) Harthill benefited greatly, with no mention of any of the 80's horses? Why did other articles mention Sublimaze & a test for it only starting in 1979 (but from 79 to 95, the only state that banned it & all other drugs was NY)? Perhaps, they also did not want to denigrate SS (& his trainer) & these other 80's horses & their trainers? Perhaps, because Clenbuterol became so popular, influential & LEGAL in every state except NY. Direct evidence, voluntary admission (nothing more factual than a voluntary admission) & direct quotes from the DRF/Hovdey article: "Sunday Silence's veterinarian Alex Harthill, toward the end of his life, was BOLD ENOUGH to TELL ME (Hovdey) how he illegally gave numerous horses illegal drugs, including Clenbuterol, Sublimaze & Etorphine to Sunday Silence. Harthill ADMITTED to illegally breaking the laws in enhancing his horses performances. Harthill ADMITTED to illegally using the immensely effective performance enhancing Bronchodilator drug Clenbuterol regularly in the 1980's on his horses, 15 years before it was approved by the FDA, INCLUDING using it on Sunday Silence. Harthill introduced the incredibly effective performance enhancing drug Clenbuterol in the 1980's & illegally administered it to Sunday Silence, who benefited immeasurably by its immensely effective performance enhancing effects. Some of Harthill's other drugs that he administered to Sunday Silence (& other horses) were Etorphine & Sublimaze."

McGaughey did NOT say that he gave the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory aspirin bute in the BCC at Gulfstream in Florida, & not in the Swale Stakes in Florida, & not in the Preakness in Maryland. McGaughey also said he did not give the nonsteroidal anti inflammatory asprin bute in the Preakness. McGaughey also said that he was reminded even though the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory aspirin bute would be given 3 DAYS before a race, KY law absurdly still listed the horses as being given the aspirin bute in the actual race 3 days later on race-day. When did KY correct this? 1993. Go look up here on the web of every KY Derby race chart starting from 1993 to 2020, & you will see NOT ONE horse listed as being given the aspirin bute (B) in every Derby. Why? KY did not ban the aspirin bute in 93 & going forward, but because the KY law was/is that the aspirin bute is only permitted to be given 1 to 3 days (2 days was/is the standard) before a race, or 24 to 72 hours before race (48 hours was/is the standard), it was/is incorrect, erroneous & absurd to list horses as being given aspirin bute for races on race-day, nor being on aspirin bute for races on race-day. Claiborne Farm said, "One of the many claims to fame for Easy Goer is, in an era of vast legal and illegal drug use, he ran his entire career drug-free in 20 starts for a total of well over 20 miles of racing. From the day he was born, Easy Goer had a clubfoot, a crooked turned-out left knee, bad grapefruit sized ankles and knees, but he made up for it all by his exceptional balance, action and stride, and never ran on any drugs." McGaughey ALSO stated, "Easy Goer had these issues, but he had such an outstanding way of going that he'd glide so smoothly. The issues didn't really bother him, he was so muscular, strong and competitive, he'd run through brick walls, and I never ran him on any medications. He never needed them." McGaughey's factual voluntary admission & the nsaid aspirin Bute? When McGaughey himself is quoted directly in two 90's Claiborne Farm books, KY Law, all official DRF & FIGS Form papers, Claiborne Farm, Bloodhorse, Thoroughbred Record, DRF, etc., & all (all are reliable sources & all intimately familiar with DRF publications) say that EG ran drug-free & was never given any medications (including the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory aspirin bute) or drugs (race-day medications/drugs) within a minimum of 24 hours (1 Full Day; & most likely 48 hours or 2 days because 48 hours or 2 days was/is the standard) of any race in his career, it means EG did not run or race on any drugs; & they are all 100% correct. EG was never given any medications (including the aspirin bute) or drugs on race-day (within a minimum of 24 hours or 1 Full Day & most likely 48 hours or 2 days because 48 hours or 2 days was/is the standard) of any race in his career. EG also was never given any performance enhancing drugs in his career. Back in the 80's, KY erroneously & incorrectly listed horses as being on (given) bute on race-day, even though they were only permitted by KY law to be given bute 1 to 3 days before a race, 24 to 72 hours before a race, & a minimum of 1 day or 24 hrs before a race. Yet, the diuretic & painkiller drugs Hydrochlorothiazide, Etacrynic Acid, Torasemide, & Furosemide, as well as Banamine, Acetylsalicylic Acid, Meclofanemic Acid & Naproxen, were are allowed to be given within 4 hours of a race, yet KY only listed horses being given Furosemide. "In the 1980's KY law only allowed the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory bute to be given a MINIMUM of at least 24 hours, a FULL DAY, before a race, and up to 72 hours, three days, before a race, but not within 24 hours of a race, not on race-day of a race. However, the diuretic & painkiller drugs Hydrochlorothiazide, Etacrynic Acid, Torasemide, & Furosemide, as well as Banamine, Acetylsalicylic Acid, Meclofanemic Acid & Naproxen, all are allowed to be given within 4 hours of a race." And the dosage of the aspirin bute given a minimum of 24 hours to 72 hours before (48 hours was/is the standard) a race was/is a 0.9-gram to 1.8-gram dose. Scientific studies show (for BOTH EG & SS & every other horse): "If 0.9 grams (the standard) of bute was given 24 hours before a race & a horse's post-race test, or if 1.8 grams (the standard) of bute were given 48 hours (the standard) before testing, what is the amount of bute actually remaining in the horse 24 to 48 hours post-administration? The half-life of bute in the horse is about 7.22 hours. This means that every 7.22 hours the amount of bute in the horse (& the horse's bloodstream) decreases by 50%. Dr Tom Tobin of Gluck Equine Research Center, has performed extensive research on the metabolism of bute, & reports that with a half-life of 7.22 hours, 90% of the bute remaining in the horse will be metabolized (gone from the horse) at the end of each day (24 hrs). In the first 24 hours, the amount of bute in the horse decreases by 90%. After another 24 hours, an additional 90% of the bute remaining in the horse is metabolized (gone from the horse). The horse now has only 1% of the original dose left in the system. This is what is present in the entire horse, including all its tissues, not just the bloodstream. The amount of bute in the bloodstream will be even lower." No wonder Harthill went with the illegal drugs Sublimaze, Etorphine, Powerful Narcotics, Opiates, Opioids, & illegal injections of long-acting steroids into injured areas. You can be damn sure that even if the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory aspirin Bute was given it was given 1 to 2 days before a race (2 days before was/is the standard), or 24 to 48 hours before a race (48 hours was/is the standard). You can be damn sure that even if the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory aspirin Bute was given it was not given within 1 to 2 days of a race (2 days before was/is the standard), or 24 to 48 hours before a race (48 hours was/is the standard). You can be damn sure that even if the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory aspirin Bute was given it was not given within 1 to 2 days of a race (2 days before was/is the standard), or 24 to 48 hours before a race (48 hours was/is the standard), & it was not given on race-day of a race. They all don't think aspirin, bayer, aleve, ibuprofen, bute, motrin, advil or any other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, are drugs as they are certainly not illegal performance enhancing drugs, nor are they performance enhancing, & they are not stimulants, depressants, narcotics, opioids, opiates, potent diuretics, ergogenic drugs, blood boosters, blood doping drugs, corticosteroids, amphetamines, methylphenidate, ephedrine, noradrenaline, erythropoietin, epinephrine, potent bronchodilators, anabolic steroids, long-acting steroid injections, potent stimulants, or drugs that have the same effects as these & many other drugs. You can be damn sure that both EG & SS both ran drug-free without any drugs (& without ss's banned illegal criminal vet Harthill as well) when running in the Belmont in NY because NY was the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs, & as importantly also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Harthill as well.

Easy Goer actually did get pinballed sideways & totally cut off in a melee caused by Northern Wolf. Additionally, Easy Goer did actually have his path taken away from him in the stretch by Dansel. It was amazing that Easy Goer's class, heart & talent got him second. I say that because Easy Goer didn't even run like the shadow of his normal great self. It did look as if the entire field was running in peanut butter quicksand in 2:05, though Churchill tends to produce very slow times when they have a wet track (muddy or sloppy). To me, the great nose to nose Preakness two weeks later in 1:53 4/5 proved: A) Easy Goer's explanations for not running even near his best in the Derby were justifiable, or perhaps I should paraphrase and state it like the King of KZfaq does and say it his way, "Easy Goer's only slow performances occurred at Churchill Downs when the track was muddy and every horse in those races ran very slow as a result. The only times that EG ran slowly was in the mud at Churchill Downs and that conceivably had MUCH to do with track conditions and the FACT that he did not like CD mud", and B) Sunday proved he was no fluke despite this. The greatness of both shined in the nose to nose Preakness. Then the greatness of Easy Goer shined in his totally dominating romp in the Belmont Stakes, while SS's explanations (distance, track size, in NY, track surface, etc) for not running even near his best race in the Belmont were justifiable.

Without being whipped? Of course he was whipped, and he was furiously being whipped. It looked like the entire field was in quicksand

People who saw Hovdey's article & wrote about it DID mention this & other facts. Why did they only focus on Harthill's illegal administration of the diuretic Furosemide to ND & Harthill's introduction & illegal use of Clenbuterol in the 1980's? Perhaps, because these 2 drugs became the most widely used, most popular, most influential LEGAL (BOTH) drugs, among numerous other drugs, used. In the Natalie Voss 1/15/2020 article titled, "When It Comes To Lasix (Furosemide) And Federal Legislation, Horse Racing Has Been Here Before," Voss states, "Controversial veterinarian Alex Harthill ADMITTED to using furosemide on Fear A Bit, a runner on the undercard of the 1974 Kentucky Derby , at about 2 p.m. on race day. The horse ran significantly better than he had in his past several starts and officials wanted to know why." That's incorrect & also 10 years after Harthill admitted to Hovdey that he illegally gave the illegal drug to ND. Why didn't Voss mention that, Harthill, in his infamous cloak & dagger doping scheme story, admitted to Hovdey that he illegally gave the illegal diuretic drug to the famous horse Northern Dancer in the actual Derby in 1964 a FULL TEN years prior to an UNKNOWN horse named Fear a Bit who only ran in a meaningless undercard race? Did Voss NOT want to denigrate the famous Northern Dancer (& his trainer), & so instead only mentioned an unknown horse who ran in a meaningless undercard race a full 10 years later? And no mention of the famous horses (& trainers) Harthill treated in the actual 1974 Derby itself. Did Voss NOT want to denigrate the famous horses (& trainers) who ran in the 1974 Derby?

Why didn't Voss & others mention these other famous horses (& trainers)? Perhaps, Voss didn't want to denigrate these other famous horses & trainers? Perhaps, because Furosemide became so popular, influential & legal in every state except NY? Perhaps, because ND was the most famous, or the cloak & dagger illegal doping scheme? By the same token, Harthill admitted to Hovdey of illegally giving the famous Sunday Silence the illegal ped drug Clenbuterol (plus the other 2 drugs). Harthill also admitted to Hovdey that he gave the illegal drug Clenbuterol to other famous 80's horses Ferdinand [Whittingham], Spend a Buck, Wild Again, Alysheba, Skywalker, Gate Dancer, Sunny's Halo, Gato Del Sol, Deputed Testamony, Lil E Tee, Black Tie Affair, etc. Why did other articles only mention that Harthill introduced Clenbuterol (& mentioned Sublimaze also) in the ‘80s & trainers who knew (or used) Harthill benefited greatly, with no mention of any of the 80's horses? Why did other articles mention Sublimaze & a test for it only starting in 1979 (but from 79 to 95, the only state that banned it & all other drugs was NY)? Perhaps, they also did not want to denigrate SS (& his trainer) & these other 80's horses & their trainers? Perhaps, because Clenbuterol became so popular, influential & LEGAL in every state except NY. Perhaps, some of these people want to portray that Furosemide, Clenbuterol, Sublimaze, etc., are just fine & no big deal, & they do not want to tell the truth & expose this stuff about a sport & industry that employs them. When the racing writer Bill Nack exposed facts about fatal injuries & the use of both legal & illegal drugs, calling both "appalling & unacceptable by any humane standard", many in racing not only turned against Nack as a result, they despised him for it. Perhaps many despise Hovdey & many others for exposing this or parts of it, & others do not want to tell the truth & expose this stuff about a sport & industry that employs them. DRF began listing only the 2 aforementioned drugs starting on 7/1/90, & Equibase charts for horses started to be available here online for races starting with races that took place on or after 1/1/91 to the present time. Perhaps Charlie Whittingham really meant it when he said, "treat owners & bettors like mushrooms. Keep them in the dark & feed them horse crap." Meaning, I am lying to you, & you are meant to happily keep paying the bills & betting your money. I don't think anyone who would hear that & want to be an owner or bettor, since they would be taking the word of a trainer who is lying to them, & they are meant to happily keep paying the bills & betting their money. Whittingham also said, "Drugs have been great to me. Ban them like they do in New York? No way. I'm a trainer. I make money training. When you must make money from these rats, I do whatever is necessary to win. When my opposition are using drugs, I can't permit them to have the advantage." Looking up Whittingham & all of his graded stakes winners charts here online on Equibase for his stakes winners races from 1/1/91 until his death in 99, I found all of these Whittingham trained stakes winners (all can be found looking them or Whittingham up on Equibase): Strodes Creek (AHancock owned like SS), Rainbow Blues, Urgent Request, Perfect, Aube Indienne, the aforementioned Flawlessly (all races trained by Whittingham outside drug-free NY), Numerous, Sir Beaufort, Qathif, Miss Alleged, Campagnarde, & Royal Touch, & they all ran with Lasix &/or Bute in all or almost all of their races under Whittingham; while Compelling Sound ran with Lasix &/or Bute in some races, Golden Pheasant ran with Bute in most races, Anshan ran with Lasix & Bute in some races, & The Prime Minister ran with Bute in all but 1 career race. SS? The owner of SS, Arthur Hancock, owned many other horses (all can be found looking them up on Equibase), including Menifee, Harlan, Owsley, Quest, Burnish, Ascend, Wanderin Boy, & the aforementioned Strodes Creek, & they all ran with Lasix in all or almost all of their races; Strodes Creek & Harlan also ran with Bute in all or almost all of their races; & Wanderin Boy ran with both Lasix & Adjunct (listed as A) diuretic drugs. SS? The big problem, however, is DRF (starting 7/1/90) & Equibase (starting for races on or after 1/1/91 until the present time) ONLY published info on the use of Furosemide & Bute. This is in fact only a very small part of the drugs story. Out of NY, in most racing states there are numerous types of diuretics, painkillers, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory's & other drugs permitted; literally, hundreds of drugs permitted. So some horses listed as running with the diuretic drug Furosemide &/or the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory Bute, or some horses listed as running without any drugs, might have been running instead, or also, with the diuretics & painkillers hydrochlorothiazide, Etacrynic acid, Torasemide, Flunixin (Banamine), acetylsalicylic acid, meclofanemic acid or Naproxen, etc. (like SS), literally hundreds of drugs. The only Whittingham horse who didn't was a horse from Europe who only ran in the US in 2 or 3 races under Whittingham. Harthill also admitted to Hovdey that he gave the illegal drug Clenbuterol to other famous 80's horses besides SS, including Ferdinand (trained by Whittingham) & Gato Del Sol (owned by AHancock). The illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill (admittedly) is the one who administered all of the illegal performance enhancing drugs (to SS & many other horses), all of the powerful illegal stimulants, narcotics, opioids, opiates, potent diuretics, ergogenic drugs, blood boosters, blood doping drugs, corticosteroids, amphetamines, methylphenidate, ephedrine, noradrenaline, erythropoietin, epinephrine, potent bronchodilators, anabolic steroids, long-acting steroid injections, or drugs that have the same effects as these & many other drugs. Direct evidence, voluntary admission (nothing more factual than a voluntary admission) & direct quotes from the DRF/Hovdey article: "Sunday Silence's veterinarian Alex Harthill was BOLD ENOUGH to TELL ME (Hovdey) how he illegally gave numerous horses illegal drugs, INCLUDING Clenbuterol, Sublimaze & Etorphine TO SUNDAY SILENCE. Harthill ADMITTED to illegally breaking the laws in enhancing his horses performances.

"Sunday Silence had been TREATED WITH DRUGS in the Kentucky Derby, Preakness & Breeders' Cup Classic when edging Easy Goer, but couldn't for the Belmont Stakes in New York, the one state where all drugs are banned. Easy Goer was free from all of the controversies & debates about drugs, for ALL DRUGS are prohibited in New York, as they are in the rest of the racing world outside the US. The key questions that influenced racing all year was: Could Sunday Silence beat Easy Goer without drugs? Could Sunday Silence win without drugs? He gave definitive & assertive replies to the questions: NO. Sunday Silence struggled home edging Le Voyageur but was thoroughly beaten, as the splendid Easy Goer sprinted off with the Belmont Stakes. Racing should be filled with SUPERIOR horses like EASY GOER, who did NOT require ANY drugs to perform at his best, & NOT DRUG-RELIANT horses like SUNDAY SILENCE, so we focus our attention on the sport instead of drugs. Racing wears drugs like festering, self-inflicted wounds on the end of its nose opened by the ax of greed & stamped with the endorsements of every racing commission in the nation except New York's. Racing's drug dependency, like any drug problem, has become a major problem & tarnished the sport. It is to New York's merit & acclaim that their major races stand as giant hurdles to drug-reliant horses. Winning major races on drugs is not what racing is about." Paul Moran.

Both Easy Goer and Sunday Silence. Even with dying very premature, Easy Goer is in the bloodlines of a numerous amount of G-1 winners in the USA and Europe.

If you want to be a Hall of Fame Champion, you'd better be great in New York. There are over 200 horses in the Hall of Fame & no matter where they were based, 99% of them ran/will run in New York. If you want to be a top colt or champion at 2 & 3, 4, 5 or older, or any age, you'd better be great in NY. So many Hall of Fame Champions & "Top Champion Horses" lost the Kentucky Derby &/or at Churchill Downs - Native Dancer, Easy Goer, Forego, Damascus, Holy Bull, Alsab, Discovery, Skip Away, Point Given, Go For Wand, Zenyatta, Bold Ruler, Round Table, Gallant Man, Nashua, Curlin, Discovery, Sword Dancer, Arts and Letters, Slew o' Gold, Beholder, Risen Star, etc etc etc. Man O' War, Kelso, Dr Fager, Buckpasser, Ruffian, Tom Fool, John Henry, Bayakoa, Stymie, Lady's Secret, AP Indy, Gallorette, Cigar, Precisionist, Ghostzapper, etc., never even ran in the Derby or at Churchill. New York ran/runs many many many more Prestigious, Championship G1 races than Kentucky (Churchill). Easy Goer, Forego, Kelso, Ruffian, Man o' War, Tom Fool, Buckpasser, Native Dancer, etc. King of the Hill, Top of the Heap, A Number One, the True Tests of Champions are in New York, Champions are Crowned & Championships are won on the Championship Tracks in NY - the Test of a Champion, The Handicap Triple Crown, the Fall Championship Triple Crowns, the Filly Triple Crown, etc etc. The Litmus Test of a Champion is running & winning drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs; & during that era New York was the only state in the entire country that banned all drugs. Plus, as importantly, NY banned the illegal criminal vet of ss Alex Harthill [arrested an endless amount of times for illegally drugging an endless amount of horses]. During that era, it was a huge credit to NY [& the rest of the whole world] that the endless amount of their championship G1 races stood as gigantic obstacles to drug-reliant horses like ss; & these horses, like ss & many others, got exposed badly when they were forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. ONLY no-drugs races were/are true championship races. Only no-drugs races could/can be called championship races. Only No-drugs races kept/keep the outcomes crystal clear. No-drugs races are the only true tests of champions. That is integrity, honesty, fair play & complete fairness for all. NY by far ran/runs the most Prestigious, Championship G1 races in the USA with the highest purses in the country; NY was & still is the Center & Pinnacle of Racing in the USA; NY was/is by far the best racing circuit in the USA; champions are crowned & championships are won on the Championship Tracks in NY (they are by far the fairest tracks in the USA because they are all larger tracks); & most importantly, there are over 200 horses in the Hall of Fame & no matter where they were based, 99% of them ran/will run in NY. While all 3 major NY tracks are bigger tracks with larger, wider, sweeping turns, Belmont Park was & will always be the Championship Track, as it was/is, by far, the fairest track in the US being the largest with the biggest, widest, sweeping turns where horses run as fast around the bigger turns as they do on straightaways. The best horse almost always wins at Belmont. You don’t have to tip-toe your way around the smaller, tighter, sharp turns on the smaller tracks, you can run at top speed around the bigger turns. The bigger, the wider, the larger the turns, the less bad racing luck. The fewer the turns, the less bad racing luck. Belmont was/is the track where championships were/are decided not by racing luck, but by the horse that won, the best horse. There are no places for horses to hide on the huge track; horses are bare-faced out there on the huge track, & it was/is by far the best testing ground of champions to prove themselves. Belmont was/is the ultimate test because it displays & reveals every strength of authentic, genuine greats, & it exposes every flaw of imposters. The True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer won outside drug-free NY, & won 6 races away from his home track, & EG only lost by the slimmest of margins in other races to drug-reliant horses who had been given Performance Enhancing Drugs. Clearly, the True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer wins these other races had the others not been given all of these performance enhancing drugs, & all been forced to run drug-free w/o any drugs. Forego was 0 for 3 outside NY & FL. The Hall of Fame Champion Ruffian won 0 races outside NY & NJ. The Hall of Fame Champion Zenyatta won 0 races outside California & Arkansas. Many Hall of Fame Champions won all or almost of their races (&/or all or almost all of their major races) in New York, Florida or California, including Forego, Easy Goer, Kelso, Ruffian, Man o' War, Zenyatta, etc. NAME ALL OF THE RACES SUNDAY SILENCE WON WHEN FORCED TO RUN DRUG-FREE WITHOUT ANY DRUGS. ZERO. Name all of the races ss won when he was forced to run without his banned illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill. Zero. Name all of the races ss won on larger tracks with circumferences bigger than 8f. ss LOST 4 races on bigger tracks with circumferences larger than 8f.

2:18 "Easy Goer is a SuperHorse." 11:56 "Easy Goer is the best since Secretariat." 12:31 "Easy Goer had some problems in the beginning, he was bumped & bothered in the run to the first turn (being cut off & wiped out by Jockey Jo Jo Ladner [who was suspended for it] on Northern Wolf), & had some problems in the stretch having Dansil drift into his path forcing him to alter course." 13:32 "Watch on the outside, Northern Wolf as he cuts across pinches off Easy Goer pretty good here. Whoa. A real rodeo." 13:59 "Easy Goer was crowded." 16:12 "There's Northern Wolf who causes a traffic jam behind cutting off & wiping out Easy Goer." 16:51 "Here comes Northern Wolf again up on the outside cutting off & wiping out Easy Goer. Bumper cars, & Easy Goer took the worst of it." The drug-reliant & banned illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence did NOT get CUT OFF & WIPED OUT & LOSE 2 to 3 LENGTHS like Easy Goer did. Besides that, the drug-reliant & banned illegal criminal vet Harthill-reliant sunday silence was not even barely winning by the slimmest of margins if he was was not given all of the illegal performance enhancing drugs Clenbuterol (an extraordinary drug with 2 completely different effects that dramatically & greatly enhance performance & significantly enhance speed, stamina, endurance, lung capacity & energy levels; it greatly aids breathing by significantly expanding the air passages in the lungs letting air flow much more freely, & it causes rapid fat burning significantly decreasing fat; it also has a similar effect on the body as Epinephrine & Amphetamines by increasing the production of Epinephrine & Noradrenaline, & thus significantly enhancing performance: it also thins blood & widens the vessels that carry oxygen, so the volume of oxygen in the blood increases, & thus significantly increases energy, & thus significantly enhances performance), Sublimaze (A Potent Narcotic So powerful that it makes horses feel like they don't even have legs, & significantly more powerful than aspirin bute) & Etorphine (An Opiate 80,000 Times More Powerful than Morphine - So powerful that it also makes horses feel like they don't even have legs, & significantly more powerful than aspirin bute), plus the potent performance enhancing drug Lasix (many studies have scientifically proved that it gives a 6 to 9 length performance enhancement), etc etc. The True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer demolished the drug-reliant & banned illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence when forced to run drug-free without any drugs, & without ss's banned illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill as well, in the only state in the whole country during that era which banned all drugs, & also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Harthill as well. Case closed.

Pay Day refusing to high five Valenzuela at the end of the race is pure gold.

SUNDAY SILENCE ZIG ZAGGING DOWN TO THE FINISHLINE AND STILL BEAT EASY GOER .....REAL EASY..

According to Alex Harthill's voluntary admission to Hovdey in 01 DRF/Hovdey article, "Harthill gave the illegal performance enhancing drugs Clenbuterol, Sublimaze & Etorphine TO SUNDAY SILENCE." Whittingham's vet's in California were Jock Jocoy & Greg Ferraro, while Harthill was Whittingham's vet when he ran outside California. However, the outlaw Harthill was always on call for Whittingham, & would make regular trips, even to California, for Whittingham. Without a doubt, Harthill obviously would have been treating SS in NY if NY had not have banned him & prohibited him from practicing; & Harthill most certainly treated SS in Kentucky, Maryland & Florida. As far as other states, Harthill was banned, prohibited from practicing, &/or lost his license's in New York, Louisiana (Harthill also failed the Louisiana state exam), & Ohio. Harthill also lost his Illinois license for 3 YEARS; not sure if Harthill ever regained his IL license, but if IL let him back in that would be criminal. In 1972 Churchill EXPELLED Harthill from the barn where he maintained an office & lab; of course they let him back eventually. Churchill allowing him back was criminal. In 1976 US Customs ARRESTED (AGAIN) Harthill for trying to smuggle illegal drugs into the country. US DEA caught him with an enormous amount of illegal drugs in 1996. Harthill was even banned in Kentucky multiple times, but KY allowed him to return, which was criminal as well. Harthill was even denied veterinary credentials in Maryland in 1979; Maryland eventually allowed him, which was criminal as well. In 2001, Harthill paid a fine (AGAIN) because of a July (01) incident in which he used a stomach tube on a horse several hours before a race at Churchill. Raceday "tubing" of horses had been banned in Kentucky; KY outlawed tubing's, known as "milkshaking," whereby a stomach tube is used to administer a concoction of materials that give a horse additional energy. Numerous abuse of drugs usage by Harthill surfaced in many other jurisdictions & he was denied veterinary privileges & credentials in multiple states; but, not sure of his status in many other states. The fact that the banned illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill would, & many other vets would, give all these, & many other, legal & illegal drugs in races is PURE TRUTH. In the Headless Horsemen book by James D. Squires, Harthill also admitted in 1990 (11 years before he told Hovdey) to California vet Rick Arthur that, "It (Furosemide) started with me. I gave the illegal diuretic drug Furosemide to Northern Dancer in 1964. (period)." Harthill didn't specify even one race, not even the 64 Derby, & he did not specify that he only gave it in the 64 Derby. Besides ND, Harthill also admitted he gave the same illegal diuretic diuretic drug Furosemide to other famous horses Proud Clarion, Kauai King, Lucky Debonair, Majestic Prince, Forward Pass & Master Derby. Harthill also admitted he gave illegal amphetamine & stimulant drugs to Decidedly, Iron Liege, & Tim Tam. Besides Sunday Silence, Harthill also admitted to Hovdey that he gave the illegal performance enhancing drugs Clenbuterol, Sublimaze & Etorphine to other famous 80's & 90's horses Ferdinand [Whittingham], Spend a Buck, Wild Again, Alysheba, Skywalker, Gate Dancer, Sunny's Halo, Gato Del Sol, Deputed Testamony, Winning Colors, Lil E Tee, Summer Squall, & Black Tie Affair. Harthill also admitted that he gave "routine" illegal blood-building drugs (EPO) to Lil E Tee (ONLY Lil ET) in the 92 Derby. These "routine" illegal blood-building drugs (EPO) were developed in THE 1980's (?), & horse racing didn't develop an EPO test until 2012; however, even with tests, many drugs are masked & flushed by diuretic drugs & other drugs, & were/are undetectable on tests. Harthill mentioned this in the book "The Longest Shot: Lil E. Tee and the Kentucky Derby", by John Eisenberg. Harthill also admitted to Hovdey, etc., that he injected illegal long-acting steroid drugs (for ailments & injuries) into the injured areas of horses he treated, without naming names.

Yes, who knows. And it sucks that Easy Goer died so prematurely after only a few foals, but his significant success, influence and contribution was and is remarkable. Easy Goer and Sunday Silence's contributions were both remarkable. Easy Goer and Sunday Silence were both all time greats without a doubt. There are also a few ways to look at it. American Blood Horse pedigree expert Anne Peters said, "Had Sunday Silence retired in Kentucky, it's almost certain he would have tanked commercially and been exported in disgrace, but he found his perfect gene pool and thrived instead." S.S. certainly was outstanding and dominated Japan, but so did Northern Taste, Hindostan, Tosco Boy etc. S.S. and Northern Taste are the two best sires in Japan's history. However, they were both big fish in small ponds - small ponds that was/is highly restricted and very insular as well. S.S. also did not sire even one G1 winner in the USA or Europe. You also have to put S.S.'s progeny's earnings into perspective because the highly restricted, very insular Japan have much much higher purses. Average Earnings Index (AEI) is a statistic used to put the earnings of a sire's progeny into proper perspective. Sunday Silence's career AEI was 2.15. This put his progeny's earnings into proper perspective. Some of the all time leading American sires by AEI rankings are: Bold Ruler 7.73, Alydar 5.21, Nasrullah 5.16, Northern Dancer 5.14, Nijinsky II 4.74, Danzig 4.53, Mr. Prospector 4.25, Seattle Slew 4.12, Buckpasser 3.94, Storm Cat 3.93, A.P. Indy 3.90. And many of the best American and European sires had success worldwide and in the USA and Europe - which are far far more open, unrestricted and highly non insular. They were big fish in huge ponds, unlike Northern Taste, S.S., Southern Halo, etc. American Pedigree expert Avalyn Hunter also said, "Generally it has not been successful expanding S.S.'s influence outside of Japan. The numerous attempts that have been made to propagate his line outside Japan have had below average to little success and moderate results. The lack of achievements of these S.S. sires and their offspring have no doubt left some skeptical about S.S.'s worth outside Japan." As for Easy Goer, unfortunately he died so prematurely after siring only a few horses. He still has 33 stakes winners [27 total G1 wins from 15 G1 winners] as a sire, grandsire and broodmare sire; this from only 53 mares and 136 total foals. That is an outstanding percentage. American pedigree expert John Sparkman said, "These are one of the many reasons to regret the early loss of Easy Goer, who combined blistering speed over a mile with thoroughly genuine stamina. Given Easy Goer’s own superb pedigree and the quality of mates he received during his few seasons at Claiborne, there is every reason to believe that he would have made an even more significant contribution had he lived longer."

New York was the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs - and as importantly banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill. When a "horse carries his home track everywhere he went", he runs great on all tracks, not just his "home track" . And yes, The Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion was as brilliant in drug-free New York on many different NY tracks as he was in Florida, Maryland, etc. on different tracks. EG was an undefeated 5 for 5 on 9f sized tracks away from his "home track"; so much for that. EG actually lost two races by the narrowest of margins and while conceding a large amount of weight on his "home track". So much for that. New York by far ran/runs the most Prestigious, Championship G1 races in the USA with the highest purses in the country; NY was/is by far the best racing circuit in the USA; champions are crowned and championships are won on the Championship Tracks (they are by far the fairest tracks in the USA because they are all larger tracks with large, sweeping turns where horses run as fast around the bigger turns as they do on straightaways) in New York; NY was and still is the Center of Racing in the USA; and most importantly, there are over 200 horses in the Hall of Fame and no matter where they were based, 99% of them ran/will run in NY for the reasons listed above. Having acknowledged these facts, EG won on all 3 sized tracks - 8f, 9f and 12f sized tracks; EG won G1's drug-free at 7f, 8f, 9f, 10f and 12f with much less rest and time between races and ran many more career races. The drug-reliant and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant SS gets Destroyed by 8 widening lengths in the only state in the whole country at the time which banned all drugs - and, as importantly, banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill; ss LOSES a GRADE 2 race to the drug-reliant Prized; when Prized is forced to run drug-free in the only state in the whole country at the time which prohibited all drugs, Prized gets crushed by 25 lengths by the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer. SS also LOST 4 races on bigger tracks with circumferences larger than a mile. SS only won G1's with drugs at 9f to 10f on small 8f sized tracks with much more rest and time between races and ran far less career races. SS was a horse who needed drugs, needed his illegal criminal vet, and needed his small one size smaller 8f track.

1:25 Pat Day won his last 5 races ..he was indeed a great jockey

No excuses please. Sunday Silence was best.

"The Kentucky Derby? There´s no an adjective able to describe its greatness" Jose Gregorio Guillot, venezuelan turfman and radio producer

The 3-1 means as much or as little as Noor 4, Triple Crown winner Citation 1; Beau Purple 3, Hall of Fame Champion & HOY Kelso 1; Alsab 2, Triple Crown winner Whirlaway 1; Big Spruce 2, Hall of Fame Champion & HOY Forego 1; Wajima 2, Hall of Fame Champion & HOY Forego 1; Cabrini Green 4, Hall of Fame Champion & HOY John Henry 0; Darby Creek Road 3, Hall of Fame Champion & HOY John Henry 0; Gallant Bloom 4, Hall of Famer Shuvee 1; Damascus 2, Dr Fager 2; Akureyri 3, Eclipse Award Champion Pleasant Colony 1; Formal Gold 4, Hall of Fame Champion & HOY Skip Away 2; Billy Kelly 8, Triple Crown winner Sir Barton 4; Summer Squall 4, Eclipse Award Champion Unbridled 2; Bayern 2, HOY & Eclipse Award Champion California Chrome 1; Star of Cozzene 3, HOY & Eclipse Award Champion Kotashaan 1; and an endless amount of others. And it was all done ILLEGALLY by ss - the illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill of the drug-reliant ss admitted to illegally giving illegal performance enhancing drugs (Clenbuterol, etc) to ss. "That the drug-free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer was the superior, better horse than the drug-reliant & criminal cheater veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss is officially as clear as day." In the Test of the Champion drug-free Belmont Stakes Easy Goer killed ss; like wheat separating from chaff, the cream rose to the top. Easy Goer ran drug-free in the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs, which banned all performance enhancing drugs; while the drug-reliant & illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant ss got exposed badly & romped when he was forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. The Litmus Test of a Champion is running & winning drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs; & during that era New York was the only state in the entire country that banned all drugs. Plus, as importantly, New York banned the illegal criminal vet of ss Alex Harthill [arrested an endless amount of times for illegally drugging an endless amount of horses]. During that era, it was a huge credit to NY [& the rest of the whole world] that the endless amount of their championship G1 races stood as humongous, gigantic obstacles to drug-reliant horses like ss; & these horses, like ss & many others, got exposed badly when they were forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. ONLY no-drugs drug-free races were/are true championship races. Only the drug-free no-drugs races could/can be called championship races. No-drug races kept/keep the outcomes crystal clear. No-drug races are the only true tests of champions. That is integrity, honesty, fair play & complete fairness for all. In the drug-free EG's few very slim losses by the narrowest of margins to the drug-reliant ss, ss needed all of his performance enhancing drugs administered to him & still only beat him by the slimmest of margins. Plus, The drug-free Easy Goer won G1 races at 7f, 1 mile, 9f, 10f & 12f drug-free with much less time & rest between races & ran many more races at more fluctuating, different distances in faster times with far superior speed figures & performance ratings; while the drug-reliant ss only won G1 races at 9f to 10f with his ped drugs & much more time & rest between races & ran far less races. And most importantly, Alex Harthill confessed to illegally giving illegal performance enhancing drugs to ss. I quote the DRF for the factual truths: "Sunday Silence's veterinarian Alex Harthill, toward the end of his life, was BOLD ENOUGH to tell me (Jay Hovdey of the Daily Racing Form) how he illegally gave numerous horses illegal drugs, including Clenbuterol to Sunday Silence. Harthill ADMITTED to illegally breaking the laws in enhancing his horses performances. Harthill ADMITTED to illegally using the immensely effective performance enhancing bronchodilator Clenbuterol regularly in the 1980's, 15 years before it was approved by the FDA, on his horses - INCLUDING using it on sunday silence. Alex Harthill introduced the incredibly effective performance enhancing bronchodilator Clenbuterol in the 1980's & illegally administered it to Sunday Silence, who benefited immeasurably by its immensely effective performance enhancing effects. The drug Clenbuterol has a similar effect on the body as epinephrine and amphetamines by increasing the production of epinephrine and noradrenaline, and thus significantly enhancing performance. Clenbuterol also thins blood and widens the vessels that carry oxygen, so the volume of oxygen in the blood increases, and thus significantly increases energy, and thus significantly enhances performance; plus clenbuterol dramatically reduces body fat by causing rapid fat burning. The drug Clenbuterol performed miracles for horses who made inexplicable improvements with major enhancements in performance. Some of Harthill's other favorite performance enhancing drugs that he gave his horses were Etorphine (infinitely more powerful than aspirin bute), Banamine (50 times more powerful than aspirin bute) and Sublimaze (infinitely more powerful than aspirin bute). The drugs Etorphine and Sublimaze are drugs that gave/give horses such a sense of euphoria and well-being that they feel like they don’t have legs. The US Drug Enforcement Administration filed suit against Alex Harthill on 102 charges of possessing and using unusual quantities of these and other drugs, such as the powerful performance enhancing bronchodilator Clenbuterol, powerful steroids, loop diuretics, extremely powerful painkillers, and very strong amphetamines, etc. Alex Harthill and drugs have led to the destruction of integrity in North American racing. Harthill was at the vanguard of giving drugs to horses that were used to vastly enhance their performances, and they were remarkably effective turning good horses into great horses, bad horses into good horses, slower horses into faster horses, horses with no business winning doing so, and causing horses to run far over their heads. Harthill was a vet who had stolen a 30 length lead in the race to discover drugs that would significantly move up racehorses, and Harthill had no hesitancy in using whatever was available. Harthill was a magic man vet practicing the dark arts of racehorse manipulation. Harthill was arrested many times (Kentucky, Illinois, Louisiana, NY,etc) for tampering, bribery and doping horses with drugs. Sunday Silence's vet Alex Harthill did more cheating with drugs to win horse races than any vet in history." Besides Harthill admitting it to the DRF, there is the CERTAINTY of MOUNDS of more evidence regarding Harthill's illegalities. Case closed.

1989 HOY and the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Sunday Silence will always be the Drug-Free Test of the Champion (The Classic Distance for the whole world) winner; the most coveted prize is being the 1989 Horse of the year and Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion in the Hall of Fame and beat Easy Goer 3 out of 4 times

Had Sunday Silence remained in America for breeding instead of being sent to Japan, he probably wouldn't have made any "deep" impact at all --- who knows. Anyway, SS has become a key factor upon the rise of the Japanese thoroughbred racing --- IMO, that is the most worthy point instead of anything else, including his so-called possible disqualification here.

McGaughey probably was right: "A day like today on a quirky muddy Churchill track like today probably cost us 1 Kentucky Derby" with Hall of Fame champion Easy Goer(with his troublesome, very swollen ankles floundering on that specific quirky type of mud at Churchill)."

Simple. 1- Wikipedia states Harthill "treated sunday silence in the Derby & Preakness." "Only" meaning Wikipedia only states Harthill treated ss in the Derby & Preakness, with no mention of Harthill treating ss in any other race or races, & also states that all drugs & Harthill himself were banned in NY, as well as Whittingham being angered that Harthill was banned in NY, as well as ss being forced to race without Furosemide in the Belmont Stakes in NY. 2- Based on SS's OFFICIAL RACE CHARTS in the OFFICIAL 88, 89 & 90 DRF & FIGS Form papers (with all OFFICIAL RACE CHARTS & PP's where they SPECIFICALLY IDENTIFY THE DRUGS), as well as Wikipedia (mentions Lasix), the NY Post article (mentions Lasix), & DRF, SS was given the diuretic Furosemide, Banamine, acetylsalicylic acid, meclofanemic acid, Naproxen & the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory Bute in the 89 Derby, Preakness, & Classic, & in all 13 of 14 of ss's career races outside drug-free NY (NY was the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs, & as importantly also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Harthill as well). The OFFICIAL RACE CHARTS in the OFFICIAL 88, 89 & 90 DRF & FIGS Form papers (with all OFFICIAL RACE CHARTS & PP'ss where they SPECIFICALLY IDENTIFY THE DRUGS) all list EG as running drug-free without any drugs; while, ss was IN FACT OFFICIALLY listed (& specifically identified) as being administered the diuretic Furosemide (a potent diuretic in which a study of 23k races showed a 6 length enhancement) , Banamine (5 times more powerful than aspirin bute), acetylsalicylic acid, meclofanemic acid, Naproxen & the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory Bute in all 13 of his 14 career races outside drug-free NY, including the Derby, Preakness & Classic. In Kentucky (& most other states besides NY) they allowed numerous types of diuretics, painkillers, & other drugs; literally, hundreds of drugs were permitted. So some horses listed as running with the powerful diuretic drug Furosemide &/or the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory Bute, or some horses listed as running without any drugs, might have been running instead, or also, with the diuretics hydrochlorothiazide, Etacrynic acid, Torasemide, as well as Banamine, acetylsalicylic acid, meclofanemic acid &/or Naproxen, etc. 3- According to Harthill's voluntary admission to Hovdey in 01 DRF/Hovdey article, "Harthill gave the illegal performance enhancing drugs Clenbuterol, Sublimaze & Etorphine TO SUNDAY SILENCE." Thinking logically, what races did Harthill give Sunday Silence these 3 illegal performance enhancing drugs? Basic logic, common sense - think logically. There is not enough space to cover that the beta-2 agonist bronchodilator drug Clenbuterol, when regularly administered to thoroughbred racehorses during training & on raceday's, is an immensely effective performance enhancing drug for thoroughbred racehorses, as it has a similar effect on the body as Epinephrine & Amphetamines by increasing the production of Epinephrine & Noradrenaline, & thus significantly enhances performance. Clenbuterol also thins blood & widens the vessels that carry oxygen, so the volume of oxygen in the blood increases, & thus significantly increases energy, & thus significantly enhances performance in thoroughbred racehorses. Clenbuterol is an extraordinary drug with two completely different effects that dramatically & greatly enhance performance, & significantly enhance speed, stamina, endurance, lung capacity & energy levels in thoroughbred racehorses; it greatly aids breathing by significantly expanding the air passages in the lungs letting air flow much more freely, & sustained clenbuterol usage has a re-partitioning effect on a thoroughbred racehorse by dramatically reducing body fat by causing rapid fat burning. Clenbuterol significantly increases cardiovascular output with anabolic effects, increasing basal metabolic rate, maximum heart rate, & exercise output in thoroughbred racehorses. Clenbuterol has enormous performance enhancing ergogenic properties in thoroughbred racehorses more closely related to ephedrine or amphetamine. Because of all of this, Clenbuterol is given each & every day, including training & race-days. To withdraw off of Clenbuterol & not have any in the system to run cleanly in a race, the withdrawal time is approximately 14 days. When SS was forced to run drug-free in the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs, & as importantly also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Harthill as well, ss would have had to be taken off of Clenbuterol approximately 14 days before the Belmont. The powerful opiate & narcotic drugs Etorphine & Sublimaze obviously would not, unlike Clenbuterol, be given every day. They would be given for ailments, injuries, etc., for training & races. The drug Etorphine (''elephant juice") is a strong opiate that, when used in minute amounts, acts as a powerful stimulant to thoroughbred racehorses. It is far more potent than morphine. But, it's a most powerful stimulant when given in small doses to thoroughbred racehorses. Etorphine makes thoroughbred racehorses experience pronounced euphoria WITH huge energy boosts. The amount of Sublimaze ("Rocket Fuel") injected in a thoroughbred racehorse is very small, & was well-known to criminal cheater vets like Harthill, who found that it was the perfect illegal drug. "Sublimaze stimulates the central nervous system AND produces in thoroughbred racehorses an urge to run," said Dr Thomas Tobin, a toxicology professor. "It is also a powerful painkiller. This combination is a little unusual & it is obviously very useful. Besides, the narcotic Sublimaze has no long-term negative effects. You could administer it once a week, or more, to thoroughbred racehorses & they'd be sound & healthy & stay so." Sublimaze is a low-dosage, rapid-working, high-therapeutic-effect drug, of the narcotic-analgesic group. It gives thoroughbred racehorses nerve blockage at the central level. The thoroughbred racehorses just don't feel any pain AND they extend themselves. Only 5 to 10 milligrams of Sublimaze is required to get a thoroughbred racehorse to respond, a very small amount, yet it has such tremendous effects. Thoroughbred racehorses that are sore, or have any ailments, run perfect on it. Both of these drugs are also masked with loop diuretic drugs, which dilutes urine by 20 to 40 times. Both of these drugs turn Shetland ponies into thoroughbred racehorse Derby winners, & make thoroughbred racehorses run like lightning. Both drugs are notorious for dramatically improving performance, & thoroughbred racehorses ran great on them. Etorphine is an Opiate 80,000 Times More Powerful than Morphine. Sublimaze is a potent narcotic. Both are drugs that give thoroughbred racehorses such a sense of euphoria & well-being that they feel like they don’t have legs." Harthill was the real criminal in racing by setting new standards for drug-related cheating. Even though most vets escape punishment, Harthill didn't, as he was arrested, banned, suspended, fined & lost his license numerous times in many states for illegal drugs. However, Harthill deserved a penalty more appropriate to his far-more egregious transgressions. A lifetime ban would have been warranted & actually would not have be severe enough.

Masterful training job by legendary Charlie Whittingham. Sunday Silence training was delayed due to bad weather. Whittingham called an audible by having Sunday Silence go two times around Churchill Downs , the last lap around the track was at a good(speedy) clip. Whittingham was concerned he was too fresh and needed a good workout.

The Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer won on numerous different tracks of all track sizes (8f, 9f and 12f sized tracks) in drug-free New York and Outside drug-free NY, & won G1's drug-free at 7f, 8f, 9f, 10f and 12f. Meanwhile, ss with a DISMAL record LOSING ALL races when forced to run drug-free without any drugs in the only state in the whole country during that era which banned all drugs (and as importantly also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill as well). ss also with a DISMAL record LOSING 4 races on bigger tracks with circumferences larger than 8f; and only winning G1's with drugs only at 9f to 10f on the small 8f sized tracks. SS was a drug-reliant and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill reliant race horse and that is all he really was; ss was also a one track (only small 8f sized tracks) race horse and that is all he really was. New York was the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs - and as importantly banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill. And yes, The Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion was as brilliant in drug-free New York on many different NY tracks as he was in Florida, Maryland, etc. on different tracks. EG was an undefeated 5 for 5 on 9f sized tracks away from his "home track"; so much for that. So much for that. New York by far ran/runs the most Prestigious, Championship G1 races in the USA with the highest purses in the country; NY was/is by far the best racing circuit in the USA; champions are crowned and championships are won on the Championship Tracks in NY (they are by far the fairest tracks in the USA because they are all larger tracks with large, sweeping turns where horses run as fast around the bigger turns as they do on straightaways) in New York; NY was and still is the Center of Racing in the USA; and most importantly, there are over 200 horses in the Hall of Fame and no matter where they were based, 99% of them ran/will run in NY for the reasons listed above. Having acknowledged these facts, EG won on all 3 sized tracks - 8f, 9f and 12f sized tracks; EG won G1's drug-free at 7f, 8f, 9f, 10f and 12f with much less rest and time between races and ran many more career races. The drug-reliant and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant SS gets Destroyed by 8 widening lengths in the only state in the whole country at the time which banned all drugs - and, as importantly, banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill; ss LOSES a GRADE 2 race to the drug-reliant Prized; when Prized is forced to run drug-free in the only state in the whole country at the time which prohibited all drugs, Prized gets crushed by 25 lengths by the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer. SS also LOST 4 races on bigger tracks with circumferences larger than a mile. SS only won G1's with drugs at 9f to 10f on small 8f sized tracks with much more rest and time between races and ran far less career races. SS was a horse who needed drugs, needed his illegal criminal vet, and needed his small one size smaller 8f track.

As I pointed out on some of the other videos, all should be as fair, objective and neutral as can be. Being as fair, objective and neutral as can be, I did obtain and read that Spring of 2001 Daily Racing Form expose in which Alex Harthill admitted to writer Jay Hovdey that he gave those quoted and listed illicit, potent performance-enhancing drugs to Sunday Silence, comprising of Etorphine, Clenbuterol and Sublimaze. As bad and awful as this was to read, as it discredits Harthill himself, and the horses he treated, and the trainers he worked with, Sunday Silence was not the only top horse Harthill admitted that he gave potent, illicit performance-enhancing drugs to. Besides Sunday Silence, Harthill admitted that he also gave various, different illicit performance-enhancing drugs to Northern Dancer, Decidedly, Iron Liege, Tim Tam, Forward Pass, Ferdinand, Alysheba, Summer Squall, Lil E. Tee, Sunny's Halo, Gate Dancer, Spend a Buck, Wild Again, Skywalker, Black Tie Affair, and many others. This became public knowledge prior to Harthill's 2001 Daily Racing Form admission to Jay Hovdey, by Harthill having been arrested, suspended, or out-right banned many times, and when the United States Drug Enforcement Administration filed charges against Harthill for illegally possessing large quantities of many illicit drugs. Harthill admitted he was guilty and reached a settlement with the United States Drug Enforcement Administration. According to Wikipedia, which cites numerous reliable racing sources, they declare: "During that era, New York was the only {racing} state in America that banned all drugs; New York didn't allow horses to race on any drugs, while the rest of the country did. {For the Belmont Stakes}, Charlie Whittingham was angered that his controversial veterinarian Alex Harthill, who treated Sunday Silence earlier, was not licensed and prohibited from practicing in New York. {One of the possible reasons} Whittingham may have chosen not to run Sunday Silence in the Travers was because he was still upset about Harthill being prohibited in New York." I prefer all horses to run without any drugs or medications but besides New York during that era, the whole country permitted horses to run on numerous drugs. Irrespective of what articles, books and charts declare, Sunday Silence could have, or could not have, been given the drugs and medications Lasix, Phenylbutazone {Bute} or Banamine, as well as many other drugs, in 13 races in his career. Harthill did not mention nor admit that he gave Sunday Silence Lasix, Phenylbutazone {Bute} or Banamine, because he probably did not give him any of these, and because irrespective of what articles, books or charts declare, these drugs and medications, and most other drugs and medications, were LEGAL in every racing state in the country besides New York during that era; these drugs and medications, and most other drugs and medications, were NOT illegal in every racing state in the country besides New York during that era. Harthill admitted in 2001 to the Daily Racing Form's writer Jay Hovdey that he gave illicit, potent performance-enhancing drugs to Sunday Silence, comprising of Etorphine, Clenbuterol and Sublimaze. Some cite Daily Racing Form's, articles, books and charts that Sunday Silence was given Lasix, Phenylbutazone {Bute} or Banamine in all 13 of his races outside New York. Some cite Daily Racing Form's, articles, books and charts that Sunday Silence was not given Lasix, Phenylbutazone {Bute} or Banamine in one race {Derby}. Irrespective of what articles, books and charts declare, Easy Goer could have, or could not have, been given the drugs and medications Lasix, Phenylbutazone {Bute} or Banamine, or many other drugs, in any of his 5 career races outside of New York. Some cite Daily Racing Form's, articles, books and charts that Easy Goer was never given Lasix, Phenylbutazone {Bute} or Banamine in any of his 5 races outside New York. Some cite articles, books and charts that Easy Goer was given Phenylbutazone {Bute} in 2 of his career races outside New York. Irrespective of what articles, books and charts declare, Easy Goer could have, or could not have, been given Phenylbutazone {Bute} in 2 of his career races outside New York. The only facts we know for sure are: During that era, New York was the only {racing} state in America that banned all drugs; New York didn't allow horses to race on any drugs, while the rest of the country did. In 15 of his lifetime races, Easy Goer was required by law to race without any drugs, as these 15 races took place in New York. In 1 of his lifetime races, Sunday Silence was required by law to race without any drugs, as it took place in New York. Alex Harthill admitted in 2001 to the Daily Racing Form's writer Jay Hovdey that he gave illicit, potent performance-enhancing drugs to Sunday Silence, comprising of Etorphine, Clenbuterol and Sublimaze. I would say that Harthill obviously wouldn't have admitted that he gave illicit, potent performance-enhancing drugs to Sunday Silence, and many other top horses, if it wasn't true. It's also blatantly clear and obvious that nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications like Phenylbutazone {Bute}, aspirin, Bayer, ibuprofen, Advil, Motrin, and Aleve, are not even remotely like the potent, illicit performance-enhancing drugs Harthill admitted to using on Sunday Silence and many other aforementioned horses above. Harthill admitted to using Potent Narcotics, Opioids, Opiates, Potent Diuretics, Ergogenic drugs, Blood boosters, Blood doping drugs, Corticosteroids, Amphetamines, Methylphenidate, Ephedrine, Noradrenaline, Erythropoietin, Epinephrine, Potent Bronchodilators, Anabolic Steroids, Potent Stimulants, or drugs that had the same effects as these and many other drugs, and many other drugs in addition to these on many different horses.

SS blood has already returned to the U.S.A. - Fusaichi Zenon, Hat Trick, Silent Name, et cetera stood at stud in the U.S.A. and had very little to very modest success, demonstrating his worth outside Japan is minimal. All of these sons and daughters of Sunday Silence lost all of their G-1 races in the U.S.A. - Dance Partner, Dance in the Mood, Sundrop, Layman, Keep the Faith, Silent Name, Sunday Joy, Seven Moons, Negotiator, Wild Sunday, et cetera. In fact, the many attempts that have been made to generate Sunday Silence's sire-line outside the insular, restricted, big fish in small pond Japan have had very little to very modest success, demonstrating his worth outside Japan is minimal - sons of Sunday Silence that have stood at stud outside Japan in Europe, Australia and the U.S.A. have had very little to very modest success, including Divine Light, Born King, Keep the Faith, Layman, Tayasu Tsuyoshi, Real Impact, Bubble Gum Fellow, Genuine, Hat Trick, Silent Name, Fuji Kiseki, Fusaichi Zenon, Agnes Gold, Victoire Pisa, Neorealism, Brave Smash, Black Tuxedo, et cetera. Sunday Silence himself did not even sire one G-1 winner in all of Europe and the U.S.A., and many attempted to, including Dance Partner, Dance in the Mood, Sundrop, Layman, Keep the Faith, Silent Name, Deep Impact {disqualified from 3rd place finish due to a positive drug test for an illegal drug}, To the Victory, Zenno Rob Roy, Heart's Cry, Sunday Joy, Seven Moons, Negotiator, Wild Sunday and others - All of these sons and daughters of Sunday Silence lost all of their G-1 races in Europe and the U.S.A. The great Japanese sires Sunday Silence and Deep Impact both took over from Northern Taste and Tesco Boy as leading sire in the insular, restricted, big fish in small pond Japan. While a few Deep Impact's have had success with G-1 wins in Europe, et cetera, it must be noted that he was bred to the best of the best Coolmore Galileo, Sadler's Wells and Giant's Causeway mares to do so in most cases - and in the other cases he was bred to the best of the best Niarchos family mares who are descendants of the great Miesque. However, none of these compare to Galileo, Danehill, Sadler's Wells, Northern Dancer, Mr. Prospector, Danzig, Native Dancer, Bold Ruler, Man o' War and some others. Dubawi, Tapit, Curlin, Sea the Stars and Frankel may be on their way to these aforementioned sires above. Japan's great successes cannot be attributed only because Sunday Silence and Deep Impact. While SS's blood is oversaturated in Japan, some horses without any SS blood have also been leading sires in Japan, including the aforementioned Northern Taste and Tesco Boy, as well as King Kamehameha, Symboli Kris S, Kurofune, Rulership, Harbinger, Sakura Bakushin O, Brian's Time and Lord Kanaloa. Many horses without any SS blood at all have been greats in Japan and worldwide, including all of these G-1 winners: Panthalassa {G-1 Saudi Cup & G-1 Dubai Turf winner}, El Condor Pasa {G-1 winner in Europe}, Taiki Shuttle {G-1 winner in Europe}, Seeking the Pearl {G-1 winner in Europe}, Lord Kanaloa, Vodka, TM Opera O, Jungle Pocket, King Kamehameha, Apapane, Narita Brian, Symboli Kris S, Meisho Samson, Rey de Oro, Agnes Digital, Mayano Top Gun, Air Groove, Grass Wonder, Tap Dance City, Sweep Tosho, Satono Crown, et cetera.

17:52 PAT DAY GOING TO THE WHIP ON THE FAR TURN ~ DAVE JOHNSON~ ...😭😭😭 🤣🤣🤣

I totally agree!!!

The True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion is Easy Goer. The True Drug-free Eclipse Award Champion & True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer will always be the True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion, and the most coveted honor and prize, by far, is being inducted in the Hall of Fame, and Easy Goer did it drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs. The True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer's career accomplishments and body of work were far superior to the drug-reliant and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence. The litmus test of a champion is winning drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs at all, and the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer Obliterated the drug-dependent and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-dependent sunday silence in the only state in the whole country at the time which banned all drugs (and, as importantly, also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill as well; Harthill was arrested an endless amount of times for illegally drugging an endless amount of horses). During that era, it was a huge credit to NY [& the rest of the whole world] that the endless amount of their championship G1 races stood as humongous, gigantic obstacles to drug-dependent horses like ss; and these horses, like ss and many others, got exposed badly when they were forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. ONLY no-drugs drug-free races were/are true championship races. Only the drug-free no-drugs races could/can be called championship races. Only No-drug drug-free races kept/keep the outcomes crystal clear. No-drug drug-free races are the only true tests of champions. That is integrity, honesty, fair play & complete fairness for all. And, Alex Harthill confessed to illegally giving illegal performance enhancing drugs to ss; but he couldn't do so in the only state in the whole country at the time which banned all drugs and banned Alex Harthill as well. The drug-dependent and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-dependent sunday silence got obliterated when he couldn't get all of his performance enhancing drugs from his illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill in the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs (and also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill as well). Talk about a horse that needed to bring his illegal performance enhancing drugs and illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill with him - ss is just that horse, a drug-reliant horse, an illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant horse! The drug-reliant & illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence NEEDED EVERYTHING in his favor to beat the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer by the narrowest of margins in a few races. The drug-dependent and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-dependent sunday silence LOST 4 RACES on larger tracks with circumferences bigger than a mile (including ss having a LOSING RECORD while LOSING 3 races at his larger HOME track at the bigger circumferenced Hollywood Park track). Talk about a horse that needed to bring his track with him, ss is just that horse! Meanwhile, the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer won Drug-free G1's at 7f, 1 mile, 1 1/8m, 1 1/4m & 1 1/2m on all 3 sized tracks (8f, 9f & 12f sized tracks) drug-free with much less rest and time between races and ran far more races with faster times at all distances and ran far superior speed figures and far superior performance ratings; while the drug-dependent and illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-dependent sunday silence only won G1's with performance enhancing drugs and his illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill and only at 9f to 10f only with performance enhancing drugs and only on small 8f sized tracks and with much more rest and time between races and ran far less races even with performance enhancing drugs. Talk about a horse that needed to bring his illegal performance enhancing drugs and illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill with him - ss is just that horse, a drug-reliant horse, an illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant horse! Talk about a horse that needed to bring his one sized small 8f track with him, ss is just that horse. The 3-1 means as much or as little as Noor 4, Triple Crown winner Citation 1; Beau Purple 3, Hall of Fame Champion & 5 time HOY Kelso 1; Alsab 2, Triple Crown winner Whirlaway 1; Big Spruce 2, Hall of Fame Champion & 3 time HOY Forego 1; Cabrini Green 4, Hall of Fame Champion & 2 time HOY John Henry 0; Darby Creek Road 3, Hall of Fame Champion & 2 time HOY John Henry 0; Gallant Bloom 4, Shuvee 1; Damascus 2, Dr Fager 2; Akureyri 3, Eclipse Award Champion Pleasant Colony 1; Formal Gold 4, Hall of Fame Champion & HOY Skip Away 2; Billy Kelly 8, Triple Crown winner Sir Barton 4; Summer Squall 4, Eclipse Award Champion Unbridled 2; Bayern 2, HOY & Eclipse Award Champion California Chrome 1; Star of Cozzene 3, HOY & Eclipse Award Champion Kotashaan 1; and an endless amount of others. The Classic Distance for the whole world is 12f, but Easy Goer won G1's drug-free at 7f, 8f, 9f, 10f and 12f with much less time and rest between races and ran many more career races; while the drug-reliant and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence only won G1's with drugs at 9f to 10f with much more time and rest between races and ran far less career races. The Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer's body of work & career accomplishments are far superior to ss's as well.

What a spectacular derby!!

The Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer won twice in the wet slop & mud while conceding weight to older horses, & ran 7f in a blazing 1:22 & ran 10f in a blazing 2:01 (25 lengths faster than ss ran in the wet); so much for that. The drug-dependent & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-dependent sunday silence could NOT win any race without all of his performance enhancing drugs & criminal juicer doper vet Alex Harthill juicing him; when ss was forced to run without all of his ped drugs & ss was forced to run without his criminal juicer doper vet Alex Harthill's juices, ss not only got obliterated by the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer, ss barely beat Le Voyageur (a horse who never won even 1 stake race his whole career). The drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper vet Harthill-reliant ss also could not win on bigger tracks with a circumference larger than a mile (SS LOST 4 of 6 races on bigger tracks, including losing 3 races on his Larger HOME track). That the drug-free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer was the better horse than the drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss is officially as clear as day. Never forget that it means as much or as little as all the scoreboards reading Noor 4, Citation 1; Beau Purple 3, Kelso 1; Cabrini Green 4, John Henry 0; Darby Creek Road 3, John Henry 0; Gallant Bloom 4, Shuvee 1; Akureyri 3, Pleasant Colony 1; Big Spruce 2, Forego 1; Damascus 2, Dr Fager 2; Formal Gold 4, Skip Away 2; Billy Kelly 8, Sir Barton 4; Star of Cozzene 3, Kotashaan 1; Summer Squall 4, Unbridled 2; & an endless amount more. In the Test of the Champion drug-free Belmont Stakes Easy Goer killed ss; like heart-filled drug-free wheat separating from heart-less drugged chaff, the heart-filled drug-free cream rose to the top. Easy Goer ran drug-free in the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs, which banned all performance enhancing drugs; while the drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss got exposed badly & romped when he was forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. The great drug-free Hall of Fame champion Easy Goer showed the world how to obliterate the drug-reliant sunday silence. The litmus test of a champion is running & winning drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs; & during that era New York was the only state in the entire country that banned all drugs. Plus, as importantly, New York banned & didn't allow the criminal juicer doper veterinarian of ss Alex Harthill [arrested an endless amount of times for illegally doping/juicing an endless amount of horses] to perform his magic & juice the drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss. During that era, it was a huge credit to NY [& the rest of the whole world] that the endless amount of their championship G1 races stood as humongous, gigantic obstacles to drug-dependent horses like ss; & these horses, like ss & many others, got exposed badly when they were forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. ONLY no-drugs drug-free races were/are true championship races. Only the drug-free no-drugs races could/can be called championship races. No-drug races kept/keep the outcomes crystal clear. No-drug races are the only true tests of champions. That is integrity, honesty, fair play & complete fairness for all. The drug-free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer was the better horse than the drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss. In the drug-free EG's few very slim losses by the narrowest of margins to the drug-reliant ss, ss needed all of his performance enhancing drugs administered to him & still only beat him by the slimmest of margins. Plus, The drug-free Easy Goer won G1 races at 7f, 1 mile, 9f, 10f & 12f drug-free with much less time & rest between races & ran many more races at more fluctuating, different distances in faster times with far superior speed figures & performance ratings; while the drug-reliant ss only won G1 races at 9f to 10f with his ped drugs & much more time & rest between races & ran far less races. And most importantly, Alex Harthill confessed to illegally giving illicit, illegal performance enhancing drugs to ss. I quote the DRF for the factual truths: "Harthill, toward the end of his life, was BOLD ENOUGH to tell Jay Hovdey of the Daily Racing Form how he illegally gave numerous horses (including Clenbuterol to SS) illegal drugs. Sunday Silence's veterinarian Alex Harthill ADMITTED illegally breaking the laws in enhancing his horses performances. In DRF articles in recent years & in the last few years of his life, SSilence's vet Alex Harthill ADMITTED to illegally using the immensely effective performance enhancing bronchodilator clenbuterol regularly in the 1980's 15 years before it was approved by the FDA on his horses, INCLUDING using it on sunday silence. SS's vet Alex Harthill introduced the incredibly effective performance enhancing bronchodilator Clenbuterol in the 1980's & illegally administered it to Sunday Silence, who benefited immeasurably by its immensely effective performance enhancing effects. The drug Clenbuterol has a similar effect on the body as epinephrine & amphetamines by increasing the production of epinephrine & noradrenaline & thus significantly enhancing performance; clenbuterol also thins blood & widens the vessels that carry oxygen, so the volume of oxygen in the blood increases & thus significantly increases energy & thus significantly enhances performance; plus clenbuterol dramatically reduces body fat by causing rapid fat burning. The drug Clenbuterol performed miracles for horses who made inexplicable improvements with major enhancements in performance." Some of Harthill's other favorite magic making performance enhancing drugs were Etorphine (infinitely more powerful than the aspirin-like bute), Banamine (5 times more powerful than the aspirin-like bute) & Sublimaze. The drugs Etorphine & Sublimaze are drugs that give horses such a sense of euphoria & well-being that they feel like they don’t have legs. Sunday Silence's vet Alex Harthill did more cheating with drugs to win horse races than any vet in history. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration filed suit against Alex Harthill on 102 charges of possessing & using unusual quantities of controlled drugs, such as the powerful performance enhancing bronchodilator Clenbuterol, powerful steroids, loop diuretics, extremely powerful painkillers & very strong amphetamines, etc. Alex Harthill & raceday performance enhancing drugs have led to the destruction of integrity in North American racing. Harthill was at the vanguard of giving drugs to horses that were used to vastly enhance their performances, & they were remarkably effective turning good horses into great horses, bad horses into good horses, slower horses into faster horses, horses with no business winning doing so, & causing horses to run far over their heads. Harthill was a vet who had stolen a 30 length lead in the race to discover drugs that would significantly move up racehorses, & Harthill had no hesitancy in using whatever was available. Harthill was a magic man vet practicing the dark arts of racehorse manipulation. Harthill was arrested many times (Kentucky, Illinois, Louisiana, NY,etc) for tampering, bribery & doping horses with drugs. The drugs were & are so potent that their use or nonuse dramatically alters horse's performances (including SS). Sunday Silence's vet Alex Harthill did more cheating with drugs to win horse races than any vet in history." Besides Harthill admitting it to the DRF, there is the CERTAINTY of MOUNDS of more evidence regarding Harthill's illegalities. Case closed.

SUNDAY SILENCE WENT AND FOUND THE PEACHES AND CAME BACK WITH ROSES..💯💯🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

In the Test of the Champion drug-free Belmont Stakes Easy Goer killed ss; like drug-free wheat separating from drugged chaff, the drug-free cream rose to the top. "That the drug-free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer was the superior horse than the drug-reliant & criminal cheater veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss is officially as clear as day." The 3-1 means as much or as little as Noor 4, Citation 1; Beau Purple 3, Kelso 1; Alsab 2, Whirlaway 1; Big Spruce 2, Forego 1; Wajima 2, Forego 1; Cabrini Green 4, John Henry 0; Darby Creek Road 3, John Henry 0; Gallant Bloom 4, Shuvee 1; Damascus 2, Dr Fager 2; Akureyri 3, Pleasant Colony 1; Formal Gold 4, Skip Away 2; Billy Kelly 8, Sir Barton 4; Summer Squall 4, Unbridled 2; Bayern 2, California Chrome 1; Star of Cozzene 3, Kotashaan 1; & an endless amount of others. It was all done ILLEGALLY by ss - the illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill of the drug-reliant ss admitted to illegally giving illegal performance enhancing drugs (Clenbuterol, etc) to ss. Easy Goer ran drug-free in the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs, which banned all performance enhancing drugs; while the drug-reliant & illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant ss got exposed badly & romped when he was forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. The Litmus Test of a Champion is running & winning drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs; & during that era New York was the only state in the entire country that banned all drugs. Plus, as importantly, NY banned the illegal criminal vet of ss Alex Harthill [arrested an endless amount of times for illegally drugging an endless amount of horses]. During that era, it was a huge credit to NY [& the rest of the whole world] that the endless amount of their championship G1 races stood as humongous, gigantic obstacles to drug-reliant horses like ss; & these horses, like ss & many others, got exposed badly when they were forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. ONLY no-drugs races were/are true championship races. Only no-drugs races could/can be called championship races. No-drug races kept/keep the outcomes crystal clear. No-drug races are the only true tests of champions. That is integrity, honesty, fair play & complete fairness for all. In the drug-free EG's few very slim losses by the slimmest of margins to the drug-reliant ss, ss needed all of his ped drugs administered to him & still only beat him by the slimmest of margins. Plus, The drug-free Easy Goer won G1 races at 7f, 8f, 9f, 10f & 12f drug-free with much less time & rest between races & ran many more races in faster times with far superior speed figures & performance ratings; while the drug-reliant ss only won G1 races at 9f to 10f with his ped drugs & much more time & rest between races & ran far less races. And most importantly, the illegal criminal veterinarian of Sunday Silence, Alex Harthill, confessed in 2001 to the DRF's Jay Hovdey, to illegally administering illegal performance enhancing drugs to sunday silence (plus many other horses), including the significantly powerful potent performance enhancing bronchodilator drug Clenbuterol (an extraordinary drug with 2 completely different effects that dramatically & greatly enhance performance & significantly enhance speed, stamina, endurance, lung capacity & energy levels; it greatly aids breathing by significantly expanding the air passages in the lungs letting air flow much more freely, & it causes rapid fat burning significantly decreasing fat), Sublimaze (A Potent Narcotic So powerful that it makes horses feel like they don't even have legs, & significantly more powerful than aspirin bute ), Etorphine (An Opiate 80,000 Times More Powerful than Morphine - So powerful that it makes horses feel like they don't even have legs, & significantly more powerful than aspirin bute), & Banamine (5 times more powerful than the aspirin Bute & provides significantly more potent pain relief than Bute & is far superior for relief of pain than Bute). Case closed.

EASY GOER didnt like any track outside the state of NY , He is 1-5 outside the state of NY

Still to this day i feel if this Derby would have come up "fast" Easy Goer would have given us something very special to witness...Easy Goer in my opinion was the better horse and ran the better race in the Preakness & Classic even in a nose/neck loss...Coming off a BRUTAL historic campaign into the Classic and only missing by a diminishing neck after breaking awkwardly and closing on a speed/pace favoring surface like Gulfstream was so impressive..Sunday Silence also came into the Classic very lightly raced and fresh and also an extra month of rest...Easy Goer was the better horse between the 2..Certainly had more talent..

The many attempts that have been made to generate Sunday Silence's sire-line outside the insular, restricted, big fish in small pond Japan have had very little to very modest success, demonstrating his worth outside Japan is minimal - sons of Sunday Silence that have stood at stud outside Japan in Europe, Australia and the U.S.A. have had very little to very modest success, including Divine Light, Born King, Keep the Faith, Layman, Tayasu Tsuyoshi, Real Impact, Bubble Gum Fellow, Genuine, Hat Trick, Silent Name, Fuji Kiseki, Fusaichi Zenon, Agnes Gold, Victoire Pisa, Neorealism, Brave Smash, Black Tuxedo, et cetera. Sunday Silence himself did not even sire one G-1 winner in all of Europe and the U.S.A., and many attempted to, including Dance Partner, Dance in the Mood, Sundrop, Layman, Keep the Faith, Silent Name, Deep Impact {disqualified from 3rd place finish due to a positive drug test for an illegal drug}, To the Victory, Zenno Rob Roy, Heart's Cry, Sunday Joy, Seven Moons, Negotiator, Wild Sunday and others - All of these sons and daughters of Sunday Silence lost all of their G-1 races in Europe and the U.S.A. The great Japanese sires Sunday Silence and Deep Impact both took over from Northern Taste and Tesco Boy as leading sire in the insular, restricted, big fish in small pond Japan. While a few Deep Impact's have had success with G-1 wins in Europe, et cetera, it must be noted that he was bred to the best of the best Coolmore Galileo, Sadler's Wells and Giant's Causeway mares to do so in most cases - and in the other cases he was bred to the best of the best Niarchos family mares who are descendants of the great Miesque. However, none of these compare to Galileo, Danehill, Sadler's Wells, Northern Dancer, Mr. Prospector, Danzig, Native Dancer, Bold Ruler, Man o' War and some others. Dubawi, Tapit, Curlin, Sea the Stars and Frankel may be on their way to these aforementioned sires above. Japan's great successes cannot be attributed only because Sunday Silence and Deep Impact. While SS's blood is oversaturated in Japan, some horses without any SS blood have also been leading sires in Japan, including the aforementioned Northern Taste and Tesco Boy, as well as King Kamehameha, Symboli Kris S, Kurofune, Rulership, Harbinger, Sakura Bakushin O, Brian's Time and Lord Kanaloa. Many horses without any SS blood at all have been greats in Japan and worldwide, including all of these G-1 winners: Panthalassa {G-1 Saudi Cup & G-1 Dubai Turf winner}, El Condor Pasa {G-1 winner in Europe}, Taiki Shuttle {G-1 winner in Europe}, Seeking the Pearl {G-1 winner in Europe}, Lord Kanaloa, Vodka, TM Opera O, Jungle Pocket, King Kamehameha, Apapane, Narita Brian, Symboli Kris S, Meisho Samson, Rey de Oro, Agnes Digital, Mayano Top Gun, Air Groove, Grass Wonder, Tap Dance City, Sweep Tosho, Satono Crown, et cetera.

The Drug-free Eclipse Award Champion & Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Sunday Silencer will always be the True Drug-Free Eclipse Award Champion and True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion, and the most coveted honor and prize, by far, is being inducted in the Hall of Fame

10:44 ITS A PHOTOGRAPH BETWEEN EASY GOER AND AWEINSPIRING🤣🤣😄😄

Even as an Easy Goer fan...And Easy Goer not liking the Mud at Churchill...This was a VERY VERY impressive Performance by Sunday Silence...The Move he made was Devastating...Easy Goer was Never beating Sunday Silence this day...Had the Track been Fast i always felt Easy Goer would have put on a Show and Threatened the Track Record also considering how Great he looked entering the Race...But it was Deeply wet and muddy

Alex Harthill told all how & why the drug-reliant & banned illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence beat the True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer by the slimmest of margins in a few races. Harthill said, "You can only REVERE the horses (Easy Goer, etc) whom my horses (Sunday Silence, etc) defeated even more, to do all they (Easy Goer, etc) were asked to do, just to fall a slight bit short (Easy Goer, etc) of horses (Sunday Silence, etc) who had been given performance-enhancing drugs (Sunday Silence, etc) by myself." The True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer cremated the drug-reliant & banned illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence when ss was forced to run drug-free without any drugs in the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs, & as importantly also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill as well. "Kentucky Derby Doctor Alex Harthill Reveals Disgraceful Past: Harthill Reflects on Unlawful Life's Work. Harthill Discloses He Administered Forbidden Performance-Enhancing Drugs To Many American Classic Winners In The Kentucky Derby, Preakness And Breeders' Cup Classic." How about the Belmont Stakes & the enormous amount of the other major G1 stakes races in New York? How about when the Breeders Cup took place in NY? Harthill was barred in NY. NY also was the only state in the entire country during that era which banned all drugs. NY also had the most advanced out-of-competition, training & raceday testing, & tested for an enormous amount of drugs. DRF 2001 Jay Hovdey: "Alex Harthill was BOLD ENOUGH to tell me (Jay Hovdey/DRF) how he illegally gave numerous horses illegal drugs, INCLUDING Clenbuterol, Sublimaze & Etorphine TO SUNDAY SILENCE. Harthill ADMITTED to illegally breaking the laws in ENHANCING his horses PERFORMANCES. Harthill ADMITTED to illegally using the immensely effective performance enhancing Bronchodilator drug Clenbuterol REGULARLY in the 1980's on his horses, 15 years before it was approved by the FDA, INCLUDING USING IT ON SUNDAY SILENCE. Harthill introduced the incredibly effective performance enhancing drug Clenbuterol in the 1980's & illegally administered it TO SUNDAY SILENCE, who benefited immeasurably by its immensely effective performance enhancing effects. Some of Harthill's other drugs that HE ADMINISTERED TO SUNDAY SILENCE were Etorphine & Sublimaze. The drugs Harthill administered were being used to improve a horse's performance, & they were REMARKABLY EFFECTIVE. Harthill was the vet that manipulated horse races & he Publicly Acknowledged Doing So many times. Harthill said, 'I (Harthill) was used for horses (Sunday Silence, etc) pointing for, & running in, MAJOR RACES who NEEDED DRUGS & had INFIRMITIES. I earned the reputation I had. I am very proud of the horses (Sunday Silence, etc) I helped WITH DRUGS IN THEIR CAREERS. Drugs always go through changing stages of being detected on drug tests. What I focused on was what drugs enhanced performance, together with what drugs could conceal illegal drugs, along with what drugs didn't show up on drug tests. For these reasons, I gave my horses (Sunday Silence, etc) a considerable advantage. Trainers would say, Don't get me caught, but keep me worried. Even though a horse is 5 or 7 times larger than humans, the amount of dope needed to have an effect is so small. An amount on the tip of a match would be enough to flick up a horse's nose to get a spectacular result. By the time they got my horses to the starting gate they’d be leaping out of their skin. I administered illegal drugs throughout my career that INCREASED the performances of racehorses IN CLASSIC RACES, & almost all of the time I did so, my horses won. You can only revere the horses (Easy Goer, etc) whom my horses (Sunday Silence, etc) defeated even more, to do all they (Easy Goer, etc) were asked to do, just to fall a slight bit short (Easy Goer, etc) of horses (Sunday Silence, etc) who had been given performance-enhancing drugs (Sunday Silence, etc) by myself. By doing so, I acknowledge that I effectively stole a large amount of money in my career, & cheated many other horses, trainers, owners & riders I competed against. Nonetheless, I consider my extensive doping as a mark of pride.' "

21:00 ITS A GREAT HONOR TODAY TO GIVE THIS TROPHY TO A GREAT HORSE SUNDAY SILENCE ~GOVERNOR OF KENTUCKY~😁😁😁

This year the SS’s grandson won the UK Derby and the Irish Derby. Already in Japan and France. I dream of the day when SS blood returns to the United States and wins Kentucky.

Track announcer: Dave Johnson

Awe inspiring actually did Sunday Silence a favor, he interfered with Easy Goer on the turn he should have dropped back and let Easy Goer run free.

The True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion is Easy Goer. The Drug-free Eclipse Award Champion & Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer will always be the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion, and the most coveted honor and prize, by far, is being inducted in the Hall of Fame, and Easy Goer did it drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs. The Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer's career accomplishments and body of work were far superior to the drug-reliant and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence. The litmus test of a champion is winning drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs at all, and the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer Obliterated the drug-dependent and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-dependent sunday silence in the only state in the whole country at the time which banned all drugs (and, as importantly, also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill as well; Harthill was arrested an endless amount of times for illegally drugging an endless amount of horses). During that era, it was a huge credit to NY [& the rest of the whole world] that the endless amount of their championship G1 races stood as humongous, gigantic obstacles to drug-dependent horses like ss; and these horses, like ss and many others, got exposed badly when they were forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. ONLY no-drugs drug-free races were/are true championship races. Only the drug-free no-drugs races could/can be called championship races. Only No-drug drug-free races kept/keep the outcomes crystal clear. No-drug drug-free races are the only true tests of champions. That is integrity, honesty, fair play & complete fairness for all. And, Alex Harthill confessed to illegally giving illegal performance enhancing drugs to ss; but he couldn't do so in the only state in the whole country at the time which banned all drugs and banned Alex Harthill as well. The drug-dependent and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-dependent sunday silence got obliterated when he couldn't get all of his performance enhancing drugs from his illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill in the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs (and also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill as well). Talk about a horse that needed to bring his illegal performance enhancing drugs and illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill with him - ss is just that horse, a drug-reliant horse, an illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant horse! The drug-reliant & illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence NEEDED EVERYTHING in his favor to beat the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer by the narrowest of margins in a few races. The drug-dependent and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-dependent sunday silence LOST 4 RACES on larger tracks with circumferences bigger than a mile (including ss having a LOSING RECORD while LOSING 3 races at his larger HOME track at the bigger circumferenced Hollywood Park track). Talk about a horse that needed to bring his track with him, ss is just that horse! Meanwhile, the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer won Drug-free G1's at 7f, 1 mile, 1 1/8m, 1 1/4m & 1 1/2m on all 3 sized tracks (8f, 9f & 12f sized tracks) drug-free with much less rest and time between races and ran far more races with faster times at all distances and ran far superior speed figures and far superior performance ratings; while the drug-dependent and illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-dependent sunday silence only won G1's with performance enhancing drugs and his illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill and only at 9f to 10f only with performance enhancing drugs and only on small 8f sized tracks and with much more rest and time between races and ran far less races even with performance enhancing drugs. Talk about a horse that needed to bring his illegal performance enhancing drugs and illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill with him - ss is just that horse, a drug-reliant horse, an illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant horse! Talk about a horse that needed to bring his one sized small 8f track with him, ss is just that horse.

Not very often do you see such a Heavy Favorite in the Kentucky Derby as Easy Goer was...Was like 3-5 or 4-5 (Not exactly sure)....Same goes for the Classic where Easy Goer was "1-2" Odds...He lost both of these Races but those type of Odds in those 2 Big Races was an indicator of the Type of Hype around his Talent in the Industry...No Horse since 1989 has ever been as Highly Regarded as Easy Goer...

Based on the coverage it looks like there is no foul claim made by the jockey of Northern Wolf or Easy Goer. So in retrospect it's not that surprising that the judges let it go. Can't blame them under such circumstances.

SS hated the whip & so the noise of the crowd had nothing to do with his behavior down the stretch

Sunday Silence appears to be wearing a halter and chain in the post parade.

The Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer did great in the wet slop & mud while conceding weight to older horses, & ran 7f in a blazing 1:22 & ran 10f in a blazing 2:01 (25 lengths faster than ss ran in the wet mud in this race); so much for that. The drug-dependent & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-dependent sunday silence (ss even had rubber legs even with all of his ped drugs; without all of his ped drugs ss got trounced & ss had completely melted legs) could NOT win any race nor run without all of his performance enhancing drugs & criminal juicer doper vet Alex Harthill juicing him; when ss was forced to run without all of his ped drugs & ss was forced to run without his criminal juicer doper vet Alex Harthill's juices, ss not only got obliterated by the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer, ss barely beat Le Voyageur (a horse who never won even 1 stake race his whole career). The drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper vet Harthill-reliant ss also could not win on bigger tracks with a circumference larger than a mile (SS LOST 4 of 6 races on bigger tracks, including losing 3 races on his Larger HOME track). "That the drug-free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer was the better horse than the drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss is officially as clear as day." It means as much or as little as all the scoreboards reading Noor 4, Citation 1; Beau Purple 3, Kelso 1; Cabrini Green 4, John Henry 0; Darby Creek Road 3, John Henry 0; Gallant Bloom 4, Shuvee 1; Akureyri 3, Pleasant Colony 1; Big Spruce 2, Forego 1; Damascus 2, Dr Fager 2; Formal Gold 4, Skip Away 2; Billy Kelly 8, Sir Barton 4; Star of Cozzene 3, Kotashaan 1; Summer Squall 4, Unbridled 2; & an endless amount more. In the Test of the Champion drug-free Belmont Stakes Easy Goer killed ss; like drug-free wheat separating from drugged chaff, the drug-free cream rose to the top. Easy Goer ran drug-free in the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs, which banned all ped drugs; while the drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss got exposed badly & romped when he was forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. The great drug-free Hall of Fame champion Easy Goer showed the world how to obliterate the drug-reliant sunday silence. The litmus test of a champion is running & winning drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs; & during that era New York was the only state in the entire country that banned all drugs. Plus, as importantly, New York banned & didn't allow the criminal juicer doper veterinarian of ss Alex Harthill [arrested an endless amount of times for illegally doping/juicing an endless amount of horses] to perform his magic & juice the drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss. During that era, it was a huge credit to NY [& the rest of the whole world] that the endless amount of their championship G1 races stood as humongous, gigantic obstacles to drug-dependent horses like ss; & these horses, like ss & many others, got exposed badly when they were forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. ONLY no-drugs drug-free races were/are true championship races. Only the drug-free no-drugs races could/can be called championship races. No-drug races kept/keep the outcomes crystal clear. No-drug races are the only true tests of champions. That is integrity, honesty, fair play & complete fairness for all. In the drug-free EG's few very slim losses by the narrowest of margins to the drug-reliant ss, ss needed all of his performance enhancing drugs administered to him & still only beat him by the slimmest of margins. Plus, The drug-free Easy Goer won G1 races at 7f, 1 mile, 9f, 10f & 12f drug-free with much less time & rest between races & ran many more races at more fluctuating, different distances in faster times with far superior speed figures & performance ratings; while the drug-reliant ss only won G1 races at 9f to 10f with his ped drugs & much more time & rest between races & ran far less races. And most importantly, Alex Harthill confessed to illegally giving illicit, illegal performance enhancing drugs to ss. I quote the DRF for the factual truths: "Harthill, toward the end of his life, was BOLD ENOUGH to tell Jay Hovdey of the Daily Racing Form how he illegally gave numerous horses (including Clenbuterol to SS) illegal drugs. Sunday Silence's veterinarian Alex Harthill ADMITTED illegally breaking the laws in enhancing his horses performances. In DRF articles in recent years & in the last few years of his life, SSilence's vet Alex Harthill ADMITTED to illegally using the immensely effective performance enhancing bronchodilator clenbuterol regularly in the 1980's 15 years before it was approved by the FDA on his horses, INCLUDING using it on sunday silence. SS's vet Alex Harthill introduced the incredibly effective performance enhancing bronchodilator Clenbuterol in the 1980's & illegally administered it to Sunday Silence, who benefited immeasurably by its immensely effective performance enhancing effects. The drug Clenbuterol has a similar effect on the body as epinephrine & amphetamines by increasing the production of epinephrine & noradrenaline & thus significantly enhancing performance; clenbuterol also thins blood & widens the vessels that carry oxygen, so the volume of oxygen in the blood increases & thus significantly increases energy & thus significantly enhances performance; plus clenbuterol dramatically reduces body fat by causing rapid fat burning. The drug Clenbuterol performed miracles for horses who made inexplicable improvements with major enhancements in performance. Some of Harthill's other favorite magic making performance enhancing drugs were Etorphine (infinitely more powerful than the aspirin-like bute), Banamine (5 times more powerful than the aspirin-like bute) & Sublimaze. The drugs Etorphine & Sublimaze are drugs that give horses such a sense of euphoria & well-being that they feel like they don’t have legs. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration filed suit against Alex Harthill on 102 charges of possessing & using unusual quantities of controlled drugs, such as the powerful performance enhancing bronchodilator Clenbuterol, powerful steroids, loop diuretics, extremely powerful painkillers & very strong amphetamines, etc. Alex Harthill & raceday performance enhancing drugs have led to the destruction of integrity in North American racing. Harthill was at the vanguard of giving drugs to horses that were used to vastly enhance their performances, & they were remarkably effective turning good horses into great horses, bad horses into good horses, slower horses into faster horses, horses with no business winning doing so, & causing horses to run far over their heads. Harthill was a vet who had stolen a 30 length lead in the race to discover drugs that would significantly move up racehorses, & Harthill had no hesitancy in using whatever was available. Harthill was a magic man vet practicing the dark arts of racehorse manipulation. Harthill was arrested many times (Kentucky, Illinois, Louisiana, NY,etc) for tampering, bribery & doping horses with drugs. The drugs were & are so potent that their use or nonuse dramatically alters horse's performances (including SS). Sunday Silence's vet Alex Harthill did more cheating with drugs to win horse races than any vet in history." Besides Harthill admitting it to the DRF, there is the CERTAINTY of MOUNDS of more evidence regarding Harthill's illegalities. Case closed.

Easy Goer was 1 for 5 outside of NY

オーギュストロダンがエプソムダービーで勝ったので記念にきました 米日英ダービーを制覇する素晴らしい馬 日本に来てくださってありがとうございます

Sunday Silence Beat Easy Goer 3 out of 4 times but yet Many Many people still felt Easy Goer was the Better Horse...And lot of these people were not Easy Goer fans they were Neutral...This says a lot about Easy Goer...2 of those Races were by a Nose & Neck and the Circumstances of those Races were always against Easy Goer...He also had Dominant Numbers than Sunday Silence...Those who remember this rivalry know that Easy Goer was the better Horse during his Neck loss in the Classic as He came into the race off a long grueling campaign along with a Timid ride by Pat day...Public did not make Easy Goer the overwhelming "1-2" favorite for nothing in that race

Easy Goer only had "13" Days Rest Entering Kentucky Derby and Crown and he also Caught a Muddy Surface that he Disliked (Ran 2nd at same Track and Muddy Surface in Juvenile as Heavy Favorite(...Running 2nd in This Derby was a very impressive Accomplishment under these Circumstances...Preakness his Jock not only made a Premature move but also ended up tightly Pinned down on rail Entire stretch and only Lost by a "Nose"...The Belmont was The Real Easy Goer that Most expected before The Crown started...NY was the only track in the country that did not allow race day drugs...The Vet of Sunday Silence was not allowed near the Horse...Easy Goer not only absolutely Destroyed his rival and Field by 8 Lengths but he also Easily and quickly put the Field away on the far Turn as he effortlessly exploded by Field and ran 2nd fastest Belmont only Behind Secretariat...198 Belmont was the Example race of Why Most felt Easy Goer was Highly regarded as the 2nd best Horse of all time...Sunday Silence Spoiled this Party but under all of the Circumstances he was pretty "Lucky" and Fortunate to come out Ahead with 3 to 1 Lead over Easy Goer...

The Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer won on numerous different tracks of all track sizes (8f, 9f and 12f sized tracks) in drug-free New York and outside drug-free NY, & won G1's drug-free at 7f, 8f, 9f, 10f and 12f. Meanwhile, ss with a DISMAL record LOSING ALL races when forced to run drug-free without any drugs in the only state in the whole country during that era which banned all drugs (and as importantly also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill as well). ss also with a DISMAL record LOSING 4 races on bigger tracks with circumferences larger than 8f; and only winning G1's with drugs only at 9f to 10f on the small 8f sized tracks. SS was a drug-reliant and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill reliant race horse and that is all he really was; ss was also a one track (only small 8f sized tracks) race horse and that is all he really was. New York was the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs - and as importantly banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill. When a "horse carries his home track everywhere he went", he runs great on all tracks, not just his "home track" . And yes, The Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion was as brilliant in drug-free New York on many different NY tracks as he was in Florida, Maryland, etc. on different tracks. EG was an undefeated 5 for 5 on 9f sized tracks away from his "home track"; so much for that. EG actually lost two races by the narrowest of margins and while conceding a large amount of weight on his "home track". So much for that. New York by far ran/runs the most Prestigious, Championship G1 races in the USA with the highest purses in the country; NY was/is by far the best racing circuit in the USA; champions are crowned and championships are won on the Championship Tracks (they are by far the fairest tracks in the USA because they are all larger tracks with large, sweeping turns where horses run as fast around the bigger turns as they do on straightaways) in New York; NY was and still is the Center of Racing in the USA; and most importantly, there are over 200 horses in the Hall of Fame and no matter where they were based, 99% of them ran/will run in NY for the reasons listed above. Having acknowledged these facts, EG won on all 3 sized tracks - 8f, 9f and 12f sized tracks; EG won G1's drug-free at 7f, 8f, 9f, 10f and 12f with much less rest and time between races and ran many more career races. The drug-reliant and illegal criminal veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant SS gets Destroyed by 8 widening lengths in the only state in the whole country at the time which banned all drugs - and, as importantly, banned ss's illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill; ss LOSES a GRADE 2 race to the drug-reliant Prized; when Prized is forced to run drug-free in the only state in the whole country at the time which prohibited all drugs, Prized gets crushed by 25 lengths by the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer. SS also LOST 4 races on bigger tracks with circumferences larger than a mile. SS only won G1's with drugs at 9f to 10f on small 8f sized tracks with much more rest and time between races and ran far less career races. SS was a horse who needed drugs, needed his illegal criminal vet, and needed his small one size smaller 8f track!!

Easy Goer...Only "13" days rest Coming into this Race...And Track was Muddy...He Sure had some Bad Luck in Some Big Races...Very Unfortunate...Sunday Silence ran a Great Race Though and i Can not Take any Credit away from him on this Day...He Relished the Wet Surface

You can say that Sunday Silence was the better horse if that is your opinion and he did win 3 out of 4 so your opinion is valid to make...Bot those who claim Sunday Silence had more Heart makes no sense...Easy Goer was pinned on rail entire stretch in Preakness and dug deep to only lose by a "Nose" at the wire...Easy Goer showed a TON of heart and was just "Unfortunate" in the photo...Classic he closed fast to miss by a "Neck"...No idea what that has to do with him not having enough Heart...Only Race where 1 of them showed no heart was the Belmont...Sunday Silence showed absolutely ZERO Heart when Easy Goer just completely BLEW by him like he was standing still and Sunday Silence did not even put up an ounce of Heart...Now i am not saying that Sunday Silence did not have any Heart as a Racehorse but to say he had MORE Heart than Easy Goer is just ridiculous and senseless...

Suck that Sunday Silence didn’t stay in America for stud. Who knows what his foals could have accomplished here.

At least Easy Goer got one more TC win than his dad.

TELL ME PLEASE HOW SOME IGNORE THE TRUTH THE ADMITTING IN LIVING COLOR AND IN BLACK AND WHITE THE CONVICTED AND BANNED SUNDAY SILENCE VET JUICED HIM ALL ALONG.

The litmus test of a champion is winning drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs; & during that era New York was the only state in the entire country that banned all drugs. Plus, as importantly, New York banned the illegal criminal veterinarian of sunday silence Alex Harthill [arrested an endless amount of times for illegally drugging an endless amount of horses]. During that era, it was a huge credit to NY [& the rest of the whole world] that the endless amount of their championship G1 races stood as humongous, gigantic obstacles to drug-dependent horses like ss; and these horses, like ss, and many others, got exposed badly when they were forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all.

Another account for sig TOTALLY FALSE! If you want to be a Hall of Fame Champion, you'd better be great in New York. There are over 200 horses in the Hall of Fame & no matter where they were based, 99% of them ran/will run in New York. If you want to be a top colt or champion at 2 & 3, 4, 5 or older, or any age, you'd better be great in NY. So many Hall of Fame Champions & "Top Champion Horses" lost the Kentucky Derby &/or at Churchill Downs - Native Dancer, Easy Goer, Forego, Damascus, Holy Bull, Alsab, Discovery, Skip Away, Point Given, Go For Wand, Zenyatta, Bold Ruler, Round Table, Gallant Man, Nashua, Curlin, Discovery, Sword Dancer, Arts and Letters, Slew o' Gold, Beholder, Risen Star, etc etc etc. Man O' War, Kelso, Dr Fager, Buckpasser, Ruffian, Tom Fool, John Henry, Bayakoa, Stymie, Lady's Secret, AP Indy, Gallorette, Cigar, Precisionist, Ghostzapper, etc., never even ran in the Derby or at Churchill. New York ran/runs many many many more Prestigious, Championship G1 races than Kentucky (Churchill). Easy Goer, Forego, Kelso, Ruffian, Man o' War, Tom Fool, Buckpasser, Native Dancer, etc. King of the Hill, Top of the Heap, A Number One, the True Tests of Champions are in New York, Champions are Crowned & Championships are won on the Championship Tracks in NY - the Test of a Champion, The Handicap Triple Crown, the Fall Championship Triple Crowns, the Filly Triple Crown, etc etc. The Litmus Test of a Champion is running & winning drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs; & during that era New York was the only state in the entire country that banned all drugs. Plus, as importantly, NY banned the illegal criminal vet of ss Alex Harthill [arrested an endless amount of times for illegally drugging an endless amount of horses]. During that era, it was a huge credit to NY [& the rest of the whole world] that the endless amount of their championship G1 races stood as gigantic obstacles to drug-reliant horses like ss; & these horses, like ss & many others, got exposed badly when they were forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. ONLY no-drugs races were/are true championship races. Only no-drugs races could/can be called championship races. Only No-drugs races kept/keep the outcomes crystal clear. No-drugs races are the only true tests of champions. That is integrity, honesty, fair play & complete fairness for all. NY by far ran/runs the most Prestigious, Championship G1 races in the USA with the highest purses in the country; NY was & still is the Center & Pinnacle of Racing in the USA; NY was/is by far the best racing circuit in the USA; champions are crowned & championships are won on the Championship Tracks in NY (they are by far the fairest tracks in the USA because they are all larger tracks); & most importantly, there are over 200 horses in the Hall of Fame & no matter where they were based, 99% of them ran/will run in NY. While all 3 major NY tracks are bigger tracks with larger, wider, sweeping turns, Belmont Park was & will always be the Championship Track, as it was/is, by far, the fairest track in the US being the largest with the biggest, widest, sweeping turns where horses run as fast around the bigger turns as they do on straightaways. The best horse almost always wins at Belmont. You don’t have to tip-toe your way around the smaller, tighter, sharp turns on the smaller tracks, you can run at top speed around the bigger turns. The bigger, the wider, the larger the turns, the less bad racing luck. The fewer the turns, the less bad racing luck. Belmont was/is the track where championships were/are decided not by racing luck, but by the horse that won, the best horse. There are no places for horses to hide on the huge track; horses are bare-faced out there on the huge track, & it was/is by far the best testing ground of champions to prove themselves. Belmont was/is the ultimate test because it displays & reveals every strength of authentic, genuine greats, & it exposes every flaw of imposters. The True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer won outside drug-free NY, & won 6 races away from his home track, & EG only lost by the slimmest of margins in other races to drug-reliant horses who had been given Performance Enhancing Drugs. Clearly, the True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer wins these other races had the others not been given all of these performance enhancing drugs, & all been forced to run drug-free w/o any drugs. Forego was 0 for 3 outside NY & FL. The Hall of Fame Champion Ruffian won 0 races outside NY & NJ. The Hall of Fame Champion Zenyatta won 0 races outside California & Arkansas. Many Hall of Fame Champions won all or almost of their races (&/or all or almost all of their major races) in New York, Florida or California, including Forego, Easy Goer, Kelso, Ruffian, Man o' War, Zenyatta, etc. NAME ALL OF THE RACES SUNDAY SILENCE WON WHEN FORCED TO RUN DRUG-FREE WITHOUT ANY DRUGS. ZERO. Name all of the races ss won when he was forced to run without his banned illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill. Zero. Name all of the races ss won on larger tracks with circumferences bigger than 8f. ss LOST 4 races on bigger tracks with circumferences larger than 8f.

Safe to say the True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer was far better & far superior. Period. EG demolished ss when they were forced to run drug-free without any drugs in the only state in the whole country during that era which banned all drugs. EG was the better horse plain & simple. Paul Moran of DRF, Newsday & LA Times: "Racing should be filled with SUPERIOR horses like EASY GOER, who did NOT require ANY drugs to perform at his best, & NOT INFERIOR DRUG-RELIANT horses like SUNDAY SILENCE. Sunday Silence had been TREATED WITH DRUGS, NOTABLY THE PERFORMANCE-ENHANCING DRUG FUROSEMIDE, in the Kentucky Derby, Preakness & Breeders' Cup Classic when narrowly edging Easy Goer, but couldn't for the Belmont Stakes in New York, the one state where all drugs are banned. Easy Goer was free from all of the controversies & debates about drugs, for ALL DRUGS are prohibited in New York, as they are in the rest of the racing world outside the US. The key questions that influenced racing all year was: Could Sunday Silence beat Easy Goer without drugs? Could Sunday Silence win without drugs? He gave definitive & assertive replies to the questions: NO. Sunday Silence struggled home edging Le Voyageur but was thoroughly beaten, as the splendid Easy Goer sprinted off with the Belmont Stakes. Racing should be filled with SUPERIOR horses like EASY GOER, who did NOT require ANY drugs to perform at his best, & NOT INFERIOR DRUG-RELIANT horses like SUNDAY SILENCE, so we focus our attention on the sport instead of drugs. Racing wears drugs like festering, self-inflicted wounds on the end of its nose opened by the ax of greed & stamped with the endorsements of every racing commission in the nation except New York's. Racing's drug dependency, like any drug problem, has become a major problem & tarnished the sport. It is to New York's merit & acclaim that their major races stand as giant hurdles to drug-reliant horses. Winning major races on drugs is not what racing is about."

Cant help but laugh SS zig zag all over the place. Shouldve been a 5+ length win. It did show that ss didnt like the whip though and the jockeys really handled ss differently after this race.

SUNDAY SILENCE WAS A SUPER STALLION: See video titled: GLOBAL IMPACT: The Rise Of The Japanese Thoroughbred

Was te en close. The Preakness was better

cominatcha, why do you completely waste all of your time & delete 99% of your comments? The Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer did great in numerous track conditions & in numerous track sizes/circumferences. EG won in the wet slop & mud while conceding weight to older horses, & ran 7f in a blazin 1:22 & ran 10f in a blazing 2:01 (25 lengths faster than ss ran in the wet mud in this race) in the Drug-Free G1 Woodward; so much for that. The drug-reliant & criminal juicer cheater veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence could NOT handle running Legally nor win any race nor run without all of his illegal performance enhancing drugs & criminal juicer cheater vet Alex Harthill juicing him; when ss was forced to run without all of his ped drugs & ss was forced to run without his criminal juicer doper vet Alex Harthill's juices, ss not only got obliterated by the Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer, ss barely beat Le Voyageur (a horse who never won even 1 stake race his whole career). The drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper vet Harthill-reliant ss also could not win on bigger tracks with a circumference larger than a mile (SS LOST 4 races on bigger tracks, including losing 3 races on his Larger HOME track). EG won on all 3 sized tracks (8f, 9f & 12f); ss did NOT. "That the drug-free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer was the better horse than the drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss is officially as clear as day." It means as much or as little as all the scoreboards reading Noor 4, Citation 1; Beau Purple 3, Kelso 1; Cabrini Green 4, John Henry 0; Darby Creek Road 3, John Henry 0; Gallant Bloom 4, Shuvee 1; Akureyri 3, Pleasant Colony 1; Big Spruce 2, Forego 1; Damascus 2, Dr Fager 2; Formal Gold 4, Skip Away 2; Billy Kelly 8, Sir Barton 4; Star of Cozzene 3, Kotashaan 1; Summer Squall 4, Unbridled 2; & an endless amount more. In the Test of the Champion drug-free Belmont Stakes Easy Goer killed ss; like drug-free wheat separating from drugged chaff, the drug-free cream rose to the top. Easy Goer ran drug-free in the only state in the entire country at the time which banned all drugs, which banned all ped drugs; while the drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss got exposed badly & romped when he was forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. The great drug-free Hall of Fame champion Easy Goer showed the world how to obliterate the drug-reliant sunday silence. The litmus test of a champion is running & winning drug-free without any performance enhancing drugs; & during that era New York was the only state in the entire country that banned all drugs. Plus, as importantly, New York banned & didn't allow the criminal juicer doper veterinarian of ss Alex Harthill [arrested an endless amount of times for illegally doping/juicing an endless amount of horses] to perform his magic & juice the drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant ss. During that era, it was a huge credit to NY [& the rest of the whole world] that the endless amount of their championship G1 races stood as humongous, gigantic obstacles to drug-dependent horses like ss; & these horses, like ss & many others, got exposed badly when they were forced to run drug-free with no-drugs at all. ONLY no-drugs drug-free races were/are true championship races. Only the drug-free no-drugs races could/can be called championship races. No-drug races kept/keep the outcomes crystal clear. No-drug races are the only true tests of champions. That is integrity, honesty, fair play & complete fairness for all. In the drug-free EG's few very slim losses by the slimmest of margins to the drug-reliant ss, ss needed all of his ped drugs administered to him & still only beat him by the slimmest of margins. Plus, The drug-free Easy Goer won G1 races at 7f, 1 mile, 9f, 10f & 12f drug-free with much less time & rest between races & ran many more races at more fluctuating, different distances in faster times with far superior speed figures & performance ratings; while the drug-reliant ss only won G1 races at 9f to 10f with his ped drugs & much more time & rest between races & ran far less races. And most importantly, Alex Harthill confessed to illegally giving illegal performance enhancing drugs to ss. I quote the DRF for the factual truths: "Harthill, toward the end of his life, was BOLD ENOUGH to tell Jay Hovdey of the Daily Racing Form how he illegally gave numerous horses (including Clenbuterol to SS) illegal drugs. Sunday Silence's veterinarian Alex Harthill ADMITTED illegally breaking the laws in enhancing his horses performances. In DRF articles in recent years & in the last few years of his life, SSilence's vet Alex Harthill ADMITTED to illegally using the immensely effective performance enhancing bronchodilator clenbuterol regularly in the 1980's 15 years before it was approved by the FDA on his horses, INCLUDING using it on sunday silence. SS's vet Alex Harthill introduced the incredibly effective performance enhancing bronchodilator Clenbuterol in the 1980's & illegally administered it to Sunday Silence, who benefited immeasurably by its immensely effective performance enhancing effects. The drug Clenbuterol has a similar effect on the body as epinephrine & amphetamines by increasing the production of epinephrine & noradrenaline & thus significantly enhancing performance; clenbuterol also thins blood & widens the vessels that carry oxygen, so the volume of oxygen in the blood increases & thus significantly increases energy & thus significantly enhances performance; plus clenbuterol dramatically reduces body fat by causing rapid fat burning. The drug Clenbuterol performed miracles for horses who made inexplicable improvements with major enhancements in performance. Some of Harthill's other favorite magic making performance enhancing drugs were Etorphine (infinitely more powerful than the aspirin-like bute), Banamine (5 times more powerful than the aspirin-like bute) & Sublimaze. The drugs Etorphine & Sublimaze are drugs that give horses such a sense of euphoria & well-being that they feel like they don’t have legs. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration filed suit against Alex Harthill on 102 charges of possessing & using unusual quantities of controlled drugs, such as the powerful performance enhancing bronchodilator Clenbuterol, powerful steroids, loop diuretics, extremely powerful painkillers & very strong amphetamines, etc. Alex Harthill & raceday performance enhancing drugs have led to the destruction of integrity in North American racing. Harthill was at the vanguard of giving drugs to horses that were used to vastly enhance their performances, & they were remarkably effective turning good horses into great horses, bad horses into good horses, slower horses into faster horses, horses with no business winning doing so, & causing horses to run far over their heads. Harthill was a vet who had stolen a 30 length lead in the race to discover drugs that would significantly move up racehorses, & Harthill had no hesitancy in using whatever was available. Harthill was a magic man vet practicing the dark arts of racehorse manipulation. Harthill was arrested many times (Kentucky, Illinois, Louisiana, NY,etc) for tampering, bribery & doping horses with drugs. The drugs were & are so potent that their use or nonuse dramatically alters horse's performances (including SS). Sunday Silence's vet Alex Harthill did more cheating with drugs to win horse races than any vet in history." Besides Harthill admitting it to the DRF, there is the CERTAINTY of MOUNDS of more evidence regarding Harthill's illegalities. Case closed.

The drug-free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer was the better horse than the drug-reliant & criminal juicer doper veterinarian Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence (ss even had rubber legs even with all of his ped drugs; without all of his ped drugs ss got demolished & ss had completely melted legs).

Why wasn't Sunday Silence disqualified for bumping Northern Wolf? Looks like an obvious foul there. Definitely affected the race.

Dave Johnson's call almost ruining another Derby.

Bad decision by the stewards not to take down Sunday Silence but it happens sometimes.

All you Maximum Security nay sayers would insist that Sunday Silence be taken down for interfering with Northern Wolf and ducking in and out in the stretch.

Easy Goer didn't like Churchill Downs. He lost the BC Juvenile the year before at Churchill to Is It True. And He lost the Derby the next year. If you want to be a top colt at 2 and 3 not liking Churchill is not the way to go. Skip Away was another champion who ran his worst races at Churchill. It happens .

Pat Ron Franklin Esque Day (Pat Wait All Day, Pat Start Stop Start Stop Start Day, Pat a Day late, Pat Delay Day, Pat so passive & patient he could watch a faucet drip for days Day) himself said, "I was on the far superior, far better horse in Easy Goer, but we lost a few photos to him by the slimmest of margins totally due to rider errors on my part. I had FAR MORE HORSE than I knew what to do with. It was totally my fault." Pat ron franklin esque Day (aka Pat Wait All Day, Pat Start Stop Start Stop Start Day, Pat a Day late, Pat Delay Day, Pat so passive & patient he could watch a faucet drip for days Day) got so many superior horses beat - Easy Goer, Sky Classic (in the 1992 Arlington Million & 92 BC Turf), Forty Niner (in the 1988 Kentucky Derby & Lexington), Turkoman (in the 1986 BC Classic), Java Gold (in the 1987 Jockey Club Gold Cup), Rampage (in the 1986 Kentucky Derby), Seeking the Gold (in the 1988 Haskell,Travers & BC Classic), Menifee (in the 1999 Kentucky Derby & Preakness), Heavenly Prize (in the 1994 BC Distaff & 95' Beldame), Surfside (in the 1999 BC Juv Fillies), Timber Country (1995 Kentucky Derby, Santa Anita Derby, etc.), etc., & an endless amount of others. Day's rides were downright despicable. Day's riding was horrendous - start stop start stop start, start check in major traffic start, inside outside way outside as wide as can be, back inside back outside back way outside as wide as can be, back in as tight as can be on the dead rail, turn his head in turn his head out, pull the trigger then fold up & put out the fire of a splendid Hall of Fame Champion in full flame, etc. A lemming could have rode better than Day. "Day is so patient he could watch a faucet drip for days. Day drove many a captain of industry, hard-boot trainer & horseplayer to the brink of rage."

"Sunday Silence had been TREATED WITH DRUGS in the Kentucky Derby, Preakness & Breeders' Cup Classic when edging Easy Goer, but couldn't for the Belmont Stakes in New York, the one state where all drugs are banned. Easy Goer was free from all of the controversies & debates about drugs, for ALL DRUGS are prohibited in New York, as they are in the rest of the racing world outside the US. The key questions that influenced racing all year was: Could Sunday Silence beat Easy Goer without drugs? Could Sunday Silence win without drugs? He gave definitive & assertive replies to the questions: NO. Sunday Silence struggled home edging Le Voyageur but was thoroughly beaten, as the splendid Easy Goer sprinted off with the Belmont Stakes. Racing should be filled with SUPERIOR horses like EASY GOER, who did NOT require ANY drugs to perform at his best, & NOT DRUG-RELIANT horses like SUNDAY SILENCE, so we focus our attention on the sport instead of drugs. Racing wears drugs like festering, self-inflicted wounds on the end of its nose opened by the ax of greed & stamped with the endorsements of every racing commission in the nation except New York's. Racing's drug dependency, like any drug problem, has become a major problem & tarnished the sport. It is to New York's merit & acclaim that their major races stand as giant hurdles to drug-reliant horses. Winning major races on drugs is not what racing is about." Paul Moran.

2:18 "Easy Goer is a SuperHorse." 11:56 "Easy Goer is the best since Secretariat." 12:31 "Easy Goer had some problems in the beginning, he was bumped & bothered in the run to the first turn (being cut off & wiped out by Jockey Jo Jo Ladner [who was suspended for it] on Northern Wolf), & had some problems in the stretch having Dansil drift into his path forcing him to alter course." 13:32 "Watch on the outside, Northern Wolf as he cuts across pinches off Easy Goer pretty good here. Whoa. A real rodeo." 13:59 "Easy Goer was crowded." 16:12 "There's Northern Wolf who causes a traffic jam behind cutting off & wiping out Easy Goer." 16:51 "Here comes Northern Wolf again up on the outside cutting off & wiping out Easy Goer. Bumper cars, & Easy Goer took the worst of it." The drug-reliant & banned illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence did NOT get CUT OFF & WIPED OUT & LOSE 2 to 3 LENGTHS like Easy Goer did. Besides that, the drug-reliant & banned illegal criminal vet Harthill-reliant sunday silence was not even barely winning by the slimmest of margins if he was was not given all of the illegal performance enhancing drugs Clenbuterol (an extraordinary drug with 2 completely different effects that dramatically & greatly enhance performance & significantly enhance speed, stamina, endurance, lung capacity & energy levels; it greatly aids breathing by significantly expanding the air passages in the lungs letting air flow much more freely, & it causes rapid fat burning significantly decreasing fat; it also has a similar effect on the body as Epinephrine & Amphetamines by increasing the production of Epinephrine & Noradrenaline, & thus significantly enhancing performance: it also thins blood & widens the vessels that carry oxygen, so the volume of oxygen in the blood increases, & thus significantly increases energy, & thus significantly enhances performance), Sublimaze (A Potent Narcotic So powerful that it makes horses feel like they don't even have legs, & significantly more powerful than aspirin bute) & Etorphine (An Opiate 80,000 Times More Powerful than Morphine - So powerful that it also makes horses feel like they don't even have legs, & significantly more powerful than aspirin bute), plus the potent performance enhancing drug Lasix (many studies have scientifically proved that it gives a 6 to 9 length performance enhancement), etc etc. The True Drug-Free Hall of Fame Champion Easy Goer demolished the drug-reliant & banned illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill-reliant sunday silence when forced to run drug-free without any drugs, & without ss's banned illegal criminal vet Alex Harthill as well, in the only state in the whole country during that era which banned all drugs, & also banned ss's illegal criminal vet Harthill as well. Case closed.
