Well I know it's probably not going to happen. It was merely a suggestion that should Bernardini go on to defeat open stakes company, perhaps a "sharing" of awards, if you will, would be in order. The reason being, Barbaro dominated the 3 year old division, and why punish a horse who did nothing wrong. That's an undefeated horse in my eyes, and in the eyes of many others. But King, that wasn't the point of the thread, and perhaps you failed to read the entire argument as a whole. We could wait to have this debate at the end of the year. But Oracle, the first thing I stated at the beginning was how appalled I was that the ESPN announcers had proclaimed him champion three year old by virtue of his win in the Travers. They are the ones who should have waited. We all know people, voters probably were watching, and can be swayed by what the media is telling them is truth. Hopeful the Eclipse voters take their job seriously, and don't cave to "what everyone else is doing" syndrome, ala Oscar voters "Crash".
