An analogy: Most of you aspire for UD to be a player at the highest level,
say the Breeder's Cup or Kentucky Derby. Forgetting being invited, you have to show consistency in high level stakes to be considered seriously.
UD is running its prep races for the most part in high claiming races.
It is conceivable, but the domination must be notable there. 4th, 3rd, 2nd place doesn't cut it (surely not 7th). It is delusional not to think our grade, (our level) must not improve hugely.
If 'A' now (in claiming competition), where do we have to go from here?
If you had interchanged X's record for BG's record....... see what I mean?
AND STILL there would be a lot of work to do.
YET, I am optimistic for BG and the challenge.
