if we are projecting forward to their 3yo years....i think great hunter deserves some more respect. i know his only significant win came over the tires, but this is a very consistent colt on the dirt too. out in cali he was trying to close over their speed tracks in races that were between 6f & 7f. that is not a formula for victory for most Aptitudes.
he is solid now....and most Aptitudes are like their pa and get better with age and increased distance.
i think he could be a big factor in the spring races next year.
i'll say:
1) great hunter
2) circular quay
3) street sense
4) nobizlikeshowbiz
