Runflatout and Cal Nation are too far behind to do anything in the triple crown series ... but some memorable racing will come from this division if runners keep coming and enough of them hold up.
Who is the new prospect your most excited about? Now and long term.

A lot of them are dubious in that they will probably be sprinter/milers and aren't good bets to develop.

The Factor and Runflatout both ran extremely fast at Barretts at age 2 ... the latter is Sadler and by a sire who is a son of A. P. Indy so there could be a whole lot of horse there. He'll get that one to route.

I like Flatter, but how many of them route? Apart and who else? Mostly he sires sprinters - also, Runflatout's dam is by Grand Slam, I believe, which hardly inspires confidence that he will route. The Factor probably is a sprinter/miler
