Default Who Is Your Forgotten 3 yr Old?

We all have one. Not talked about, damn near forgotten 3yr old whether due to layoff or injury.

Mine: Sweetnorthernsaint- underappreciated for just how consistently fast he is. Had the typical Desorm trip in the Derby(no he wouldn't have won, but not being on that rail he could've hit the board) while bouncing in the Derby. Came back to be a strong 2nd in the Preakness which looks better and better with Bernardini crushing everyone in his path. I think he could be a terrific older horse. He is currently breezing at Laurel.

So who is yours?

Sharp Humor, but he's coming back...

Would love to see BD return to his prior form and SNS back on the track.

I would also like to see Stevie Wonderboy and Jazil back as well as Steppenwolfer.

Corinthian. Through Mid March at Gulfstream he appeared to be the most impressive 3 year old on the grounds after the FOY (more so than Barbaro's less than stellar Holy Bull and Bernadino had just broken his maiden.

Steve, My Golden Song cost me in his races at Gulfstream and big time in the Illinois Derby. I still have people ragging on me because I gave him out as a serious Derby contender.

They say, "Hey Gus, how's My Golden Song doing?"

Did everyone see where BD's shoe came flying up in the air and hit Flashy Bull in the Derby. I know that it hurt. Well, I'm sure everyone saw that...

Rahobeth (sp)?

Great Point (really liked this guy)?
