well,
without question,
if Discreet Cat runs next year,
nobody is going to beat him. its just plain stupid how fast he is. I watch him, and I think Ghostzapper.

but if we are talking about a non obvious horse, I really like Vacare.
Im partial to turf racing so I thats my "star of 2007".

I dont see any holes in her game.
as for others:
I like
Latent Heat
Circular Quay
DMoon
OOnagh Maccool
Melhor Ainda
Point Ashley(love the name)
Songster
Bright One
and plenty more

They seem to be playing the long game with Discreet Cat, and I imagine next year he will be better still. If kept in training his stablemate, Iffraaj may well prove nigh on unbeatable over 7f, and top class at 6f & 1m (I fancy he will be better than Librettist over the latter trip).

Sander Camillo, visually, was about as impressive as a juvenile can be at Newmarket last time, and whilst the time figure was poor I back her to be a pretty special 3yo.

But (for jumping fans only) THE star of 2007 will be Taranis, Paul Nicholls' up and coming ex-French chaser. Have also backed Wellbeing for the Champion Hurdle at a price.

Bobby Flay's charge Unbridled Express. He will win at least one leg of the Triple Crown.

Don't worry we'll make plenty of dough as long as you have PATIENCE.

yeah,
his last one sucked.
so did the previous one for that matter.

Im hoping he is just a horse that is not all that good at Saratoga.
b/c his wins in MD and the one at Belmont were awesome(imo).

sucks about Melhor Ainda. thought she was as good as Heat Haze and most of the other really good Frankel turf runners over the past few years.

for as much as a female turfer can be a "star" -- it's going to be Vacare. I just don't see very many horses being able to run with her, especially with the added maturity to next year.

going along with that -- I think that Mauralakana will be heard from in big ways next year as well.

I would like to add Zada Belle to my list, and I'll stick with my picks of Bernardini, Discreet Cat, and Nobiz Like Shobiz, and all the others. So far, my horses are doing well.

It doesn't appear that Bernie will be running next year. It sucks... I would have liked to have seen him.

Never disliked him, Jessica... I'm just not willing to call him "great" yet. Like I've said before, he shows up in the BCC, and he's got my attention. I'd still like to see him up close, though.
