All three are far better than Gato Del Sol, Sunny's Halo, and Strike The Gold.

Absolutely..Where is Canonero II? He won the Derby and the Preakness (In record time), finished 4th in the Belmont and came back the following year and beat Riva Ridge..Not bad for $1200 and a crooked leg.

It seems there are a lot of young folks on this board, don't you think?

Me for example...I'm still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up!
These are indeed a lot of fun...lots of different ideas and you can tell about folks' age by their picks! I'm still lobbying for Kincsem to be included...lol!

Regardless of the age distribution ... the feeling here is much more adult. That's thing which distinguishes this forum from the other one ...

... an almost complete absence of hysteria.

Lots of rambunctiousness and contentious arguments ... but no screeching harpies ... and certainly the harpies aren't actually running the show here ... the way they are there.

This place is almost serene by comparison ... and all the credit goes to Steve ... because a board inevitably reflects the character of its management.
