Not having the guts to face up to him?
Trying to compare ITMQ and Smoken Up not easy. Different racing styles, different types tracks they have to race on, etc. But if you are going to start talking about 'not having the guts' here's a way of doing it.
1. Watch the replay of the 2012 Vic Cup. ITMQ sat behind the leader whole way. Got out in plenty of time. Caribbean Blaster 3 wide most of the way, wider round last bend.
Watch closely what happens when Caribbean Blaster gets his head in front of ITMQ.
2. Now watch the replay of the 2013 SA Cup. Smoken Up in front running along. Caribbean Blaster 2 wide serving it up to him.
Watch closely what happens when Caribbean Blaster gets his head in front of Smoken Up.
See the difference?
One of them surrenders and gives in, the other ones Smoken Up.
