He\'s coming back for another campaign and why not? Barbaro is dead. Bernadini retired. Flower Alley and Bellamy Road never won again after their epic Travers confrontation. They shipped those two off to stud along with Sharp Humor who couldn\'t get out of his own way after getting nipped by the late Barbaro in the Florida Derby.
No one has seen hide nor hair of last years Belmont winner. What was that rats name? The runnerup in that Belmont and perennial out of sight runnerup to most races last year is retired too. Wheres Sweetsouthernsaint and Sinistier Minister? No one knows. Wheres Gaspanator? I mean Commentator. Does anyone really care, besides Parra must have a rabbit in his hat somewhere. Theres Funny Cide, but hey, he\'s at least as old as Super Frolic. So sure why not bring Super Frolic back. He\'s gonna love Saratoga. I hope someone is listening.

ctc2 - wonder if we\'ll see him on turf or back in the bc , time will tell . imo - sns got a \"chance\" to come back but sinister doesn\'t - his pattern looked cooked after the 1st 2 big x\'s - the 12 pt bounce early season 3 yo and then the 15 pt bounce in the derby . berni\'s #\'s never looked that solid to me , unless his breeding is super solid or very late developing - he\'s all done . maybe super frolic goes undefeated in return + take\'s the \'07 bc classic , i like it so far ...
By the end of the campaign, I thought Bernardini was clearly the class of the crop and don\'t think anything else was that close to him including Barbaro. He did run a pretty game race against Invasor, so he was a deservng 3YO champion, but to my knowledge he is retired to stud.
I don\'t think we\'ve seen the very best of either SnS or Super Frolic. Frolic may be too old to cash in upon the trip breaks he\'s needed, but theres not a whole lot out there and he could pick up a Grade I before the current 3YO\'s mature. I just hope they keep him on dirt, dodge Invasor and run him East, with focus upon Belmont and Saratoga.
Sinister might have run too fast for his own good in the Bluegrass, but until they retire him, I\'ll be hoping to see it happen one more time.
