seems like if the vote were today..it would be Exaggerators eclipse

He has too many losses and his grade one wins were perfect setups.

Agree all wins in the slop. PA derby will be interesting if both are there. Hopefully it will be dry.

I'll take Arogate. Banking on him training up to the Classic and firing another Traver's like shot.

Fun Race to look forward to..Arrogate, Frosted and Dortmund battling it out all the way and watching Chrome blow by them down the stretch

We will see. He certainly won't be allowed to crawl on the lead like he did 2 weeks ago.

Has Chrome ever run a race like Arogates Travers or Frosteds Met?

the next step for Chrome, the reigning world champ is the awesome again.

should Arrogant want to step up to older horses...this would be his likely next step


for him to run first time against older in his fourth lifetime start in the BCC is foolishness ...foolishness I say

Does it matter that much my friend? He beat Frosted this year already. its hard to compare races on different tracks. Saratoga was a fast track Saturday but still an impressive win. They all have looked great and should be entertaining if the all hook up. Arrogate has not faced horses like this.

His last race in the Pacific Classic where he horrified both Beholder and Dortmund (who you claimed to be the greatest horse in training prior) would rank up there.
