I understand what you are saying, however if they would run them more often, against each other and into their 4-5 yr old years
then everyone would have a better idea to judge so-called top 3 yrs. after the triple crown and 6-7 races alot of these horses are retire to stud or hurt.
however i was impress with this years 3 yrs old that ran this past week-end.
court vision tale of ekati, harlem rocker,etc.. they look like they could become some top notch older horses if they would run them like. spec-bid affirmed seattle slew and so forth.
