No love for Sweet Catomine? "You" and "Tempera" were both before I started following racing closely, so I'm not sure how they compare.

I realize Sweet Catomine's campaign wasn't that lengthy, but her BC juvy filly win was really eye-catching.

Yeah, I would have given her a thought as well. Folklore was a pretty good 2YO filly as well, not terribly fast but honest. Halfbridled to me was very strong but I can agree with Tempera being rated the best based on her CA races and the BC.

I was going to say that in my opinion, Halfbridled was the dominant 2yo filly of this decade.

But then I remembered who trained Tempera, and reconsidered. I'm no fan of that trainer, but he's light years better now than he was back then.

Sweet Catomine was an excellent 2-year-old ... but it's impossible to rate her ahead of either Tempera, Storm Flag Flying, and Halfbrideld.

She has a case for the 4th spot.

I certainly favor You though. You ran 4 different Beyers between 97 and 107 as a 2yo filly...and raced against INCREDIBLE competition all year long.

Sweet Catomine only had a single Beyer higher than 91 as a 2yo filly .. and that was her real nice 3+ length victory in the BC Juvie Fillies over Balletto and Runway Model.

Balletto (the horse) never won another race. Balletto (the troll) used a picture of a Runway Model and called it herself in her fine trolling of these boards.
