I know it is impossible to know.....and it is ridiculously early to speculate on something like that......but I find these horses more interesting than many top BC juvies in the past (and therefore more worthy of this sort of premature discussion) for a couple reasons.
1) It seems like a lot of the time a good 2yo runs the entire year and we never figure out if he can run behind other horses. Not the case here, they have all proved they can do that.
2) Pedigree - All 3 are by sires who were serious 10f horses (street cry - thunder gulch - aptitude) and none of those horses did their best running at 2.
3) None of them regressed in their 2yo season. All three seemed to keep improving over the course of the year.
I suppose the biggest question mark is Great Hunter since his only big win came on the poly, but he was solid if not spectacular on the dirt, and I think most Aptitudes tend to be late bloomers like their old man.
But that being said.....my pick is still Quay.
i like great hunter. i am not saying he is going to win the derby.....but i think he will win more money over the course of his career than the other two. the horse is solid.
