Understand the sentiment.. I've been convinced Good Magic was 2nd best 3yo since summer and deserves that recognition. He had a more complete season than Catholic Boy between a Classics prep win, the 2 best non-Justify efforts in the Classics and a post-Classics G1 win.
McKinzie leapfrogged Catholic Boy for me with the Malibu win. I think it's inarguable that beyond the Triple Crown winner he was the most talented sophomore.
