You have to remember - even though the division appears loaded with up and coming types - that only means it will be harder for a single one to seperate themselves and dominate in the 2nd half of the season. Perhaps a Zaftig can - but we will see.
Perhaps the deepest older male division I ever remember was the year Favorite Trick won the horse of the year title - he did so because he cleaned out a laughable 2yo division while the older males took turns beating each other with 120+ Beyers to the winner almost left and right.

zafig has been super, but i would not even think of her right now, or just not yet... proud spell and maybe that darley filly if she continues to improve... EB does have the fact that the division is loaded, and they might all beat each other up, then they would have to step up and beat zenyatta. so maybe eight bells has done enough
