would you be upset about co-HOY of the year? By the way that was some great steak we had!!!! and Scott seemed OK w/HOY. You guys are great and this was the year of the females no doubt about it. Give them both HOY and make everyone happy!!

I can't argue with that Phil but the whole thing seems to be an oddity of the calendar. You and I walk out of Pimlico KNOWING we just saw a display of heart that we are unlikely to ever see again, and then she does it twice more that summer in races a 3 year old filly isn't supposed to run in let alone win. Z ran and won the last race. Does that mean it counts for 3?

While the cackling of experts were waving fists full of cash against her RA sent them all home indigent and poor. Now because she doesn't run a different surface in November somehow her success is distilled to simply good. Einstein runs grass, poly and dirt to Beyers > 100 while all the rest are respected for their Beyer > 100 wins run on their preference. Rachel runs on dirt but should clean up HOY voting...
