Title: 3 year old numbers
Post by: TGJB on August 06, 2003, 04:14:36 PM
PR ran about a 1 point new top, EM a slightly bigger top, FC, SH, SM and W&W all  paired their most recent. Talk amongst yourselves.

None are fast enough yet and I have my doubts they will get there by October to run with Volponi, MD, Congaree, Mineshaft, Harlan\'s Holiday (even though I believe this one is toast) and dare I include others like Evening Attire and Candy Ride! And that\'s not even including the overseas horses like Moon Ballad.  This years crop of 3 year olds is indeed fast but the older horses listed are faster.

Upper Nile well put.

The fact that Funny only paired his Belmont number (about a 2 and change) and his lifetime top is neg 1 1/2 means he still has a lot of development left to do to beat the older ones just as you mentioned.

This is going to be a good one for a long time if they let Tagg do what HE KNOWS is right by the horse.

Tough to say at this point. Classy 3yos can catch up quickly in August & September. I do agree that \"Harlan\" is toast and anxiously await the Saratoga BC @ 1 1/4 on the 16th.
