I'm not after giving anything a rating, ever, and I'm not interested in doing so. It's just that the rating of RVW as a superstar doesn't work with me at all, I'm afraid.

that would be where I differ in opinion to DO..I don't think RVW is a superstar..he is about a 126/127 horse..but has not yet had the chance to show that when winning a race

he has been run over his right trip here but met a better horse

in the Derby he ran over the wrong trip

in the guineas I think they prepped him for the main target..the Derby..which is why they shaped the Derby for him

so this season he has had..a prep..a target race that was not right for him..then runs in a race where he is ready and they probably assumed..correctly by then ...that 10 was the right trip..but unfortunately he meets a horse like STS.

if you look at his runs and read bewteen the lines then he hasn't been able to win due to differing reasons...alternatively ..you could treat a horse like a machine and when they don't win every time call them names :lol:
