another year where one standout dominated a seemingly weak group. but then there was j.o. tobin in the swaps.
slew would be remembered as a 3crown champion regardless but his 4yo campaign removed the question marks.
big brown is likely going to have to do it all this year.
i question the likelihood he has an a.p. indy in him.

Slew dusted JO Tobin in the Preakness.
I could be wrong, but I am guessing if Run Dusty Run was around now he would be the darling of message boards ( along with Jatski ). Hell, Silver Series was no slouch ( though I doubt Slew faced him ) as he was second to Forego in the Woodward after running third to the aforementioned two in the Travers.
