There were horses that broke their maidens at Delmar and Saratoga and went on to be 3yo champ, just not in their debut. Since the 3yo champion is always going to be a router, why is it surprising that no champ wins first out of the box at 5 or 5.5 furlongs?
Also, like btw says, before the BC, many champs won at Saratoga, they had just run numerous times already.
