If someone wanted to put the time into your list they could start with most of Seattle Slew's babys that made it to the track. He really had a poor % of runners that made it to the track, but the ones that raced were big winners.

I dont think Monkey will be making his debut at Saratoga. There is only 4 more weeks in the meet and I think this was Monkey's 1st or 2nd work. A trainer likes to see about 4-6 works in a row. He prob still needs to be schooled in the gate and be approved by the starter. I couldnt imagine him making is debut at Keeneland. I am thinking Belmont will be his 1st start.
