The best field assembled in any turf race in the US all year was the Arlington Million. The Tin Man won that race. He also won a couple others, one being another grade 1 and finished 2nd in a huge race in Dubai to a horse who would have been odds on had he run in the BC Turf. Thats enough for me in a year where there was no dominant horse.

Lets face it, this hasnt exactly been an electrifying decade for US turf horses like the 90's when we had Paradise Creek, Lure and Star of Cozzene who all raced against each other. All 3 of those horses would have gobbled up and spit out The Tin Man, EC and Cacique. None would have to use the excuse that the Tin Man "stole" the Arlington Million, thats for sure@!
