Yes, they all ran as 2yos. I didn't think any of them were on the on the radar as far as being serious TC candidates through the first month of their sophomore seasons though. Nowhere near the top of most lists so that's what I consider a newcomer.

Eskendereya was in Joey S December top 5.
Good points on everyone else.

Smarty Jones was my second favorite (behind Lion Heart) after the Count Fleet in early January. But just because I had him, I still know that he wasn't on most people's lists.
