Rio de la Plata can, if he comes. The filly Saoirse Abu could also. Don't forget to include Prussian in your list of nice North American based 2yo's.

No doubt about it Linny, those are the 3 American hopes for the 2yo turf.

Cherokee Triangle looked awesome in the morning and afternoon last weekend at LaDowns. He seems to be maturing beautifully and while he was clearly the best horse on paper in the Sunday Silence, a 10 3/4 length win on the turf is very impressive.

Physically he seems to be top of the line, there arent many 2yo who look like that.

He did lay over them on the form, but the 10+ length win was pretty impressive, and professional

I doubt any of the 2yo's we have got will go to the BC. Rio is a complete 2yo type in my opinion, so maybe they should give it a go. I don't think there will be much improvement in him next year...... that's just my opinion though.

Raven's Pass is another you should write down. He is owned by stonerside, so there is a possibility he could end up in America sometime, but not sure if he will as a 2yo.

My guess is that the Euro's who show up may well be second tier, but they may still be better than out best grass babies.

Same as last year, George Washington should be entered in the Classic if he comes at all. Nothing to prove in the Mile.
