You're forgetting Bernardini won the Preakness also. the only horse with a shot to take 3 year old other than Barbaro is Bernardini. A win in the Travers, against BGC and Bright One, or without them, and he makes a serious case for the award.

bluegrass still has a shot...he ran in two classic vs bernardinis single--yeah, that was a win, but bgc has two seconds....and his million dollar win yesterday has to put him on par w/ bernardini at THIS point.
i think it all comes down to whether one of them beats the older horses.
i hope he comes out well, and todd elects to run in the travers. this guy knows how to run 10f, we can only assume that bernardini can. and bright one to lead the way to the far turn. i can't remember the last time i felt so excited about the travers!
