I just had a post about 1990. Do you remember was the 1990 HOY?

It wasn't Unbridled, who won the Derby and BCC.

It wasn't Go For Wand. Or Bayakoa, for that matter.

Get some perspective.
TOTALLY AGREE, they should vote before the BC. the results from the last two years are meaningless.

I think you are going to the other extreme because of the last two stupid years. You have to consider the BC, but it is not an end-all, be-all. And you can discount it to the degree it is appropriate, which is what happened this year, at least in part.

I think people are really trying to over-complicate something that is not that complicated, at least to me.
