My horse of the year scenarios
 

whichever 3 yr old wins the BCC is 3yr old champ, if no 3yr olds win the BCC. Id give it Street Sense on the basis of winning the KY Derby and Travers.

HOY

Street wins the BCC - He wins HOY

Lawyer Ron wins BCC - He Wins HOY

Curlin wins BCC - he wins HOY

Long shots though I highly doubt it - I don't think they have done enough but
Hard Spun if he wins and Tiago if he wins, though I truly don't believe they will. Nashabe's Key is she wins again doubt it.


If Hard spun, tiago or a bomb wins Though it would be tight between Street Sense and Curlin. The Ky Derby outweighs the Preakness but the Jockey Club Gold Cup outweighs the Travers and plus he beat the Top Older Male at the time. It's a toss up but a slight edge would have to go to Curlin.

Does the term HOY mean anything to anyone other then breeders? A meaningless title IMO

If Any Given Saturday wins impressively I could definitely see him winning atleast top 3yo. . .

Yeah I forgot about AGS, if he wins it would sure make the voting that much more interesting.

Any Given Sunday needs to come back and race at 4. He could be the best of them all to continue IF he doesn't stand next year?

Is supposedly coming back for 4yo campaign.. (As of now..)

Hope he turns out better the SweetnorthernSaint my 06 tout for 07..

Here's a wrench, what if Student Council wins? Where does he fall?

Wouldn't the others have to fall for Student Council to win..I am sure Neil Howard feels real good about the chemicals running thru SC body. All of a sudden the colt improves 12 lenghts overnight. Must be the oats.

I dont think it means that much to breeders unless they were the ones who bred him

So Any Given Saturday will win the most likely to succeed award?

I wonder who'll win best personality? Teuflesberg? He's got to be an easygoing horsey dealing with that trainer.

OMG I just remembered I left my grande caramel macchiato at the newsstand! Well at least I didn't forget my Star and US Weekly.

Tricky statement because his Beyers are quite similar, he just beat-up a sorry group of west coast horses.

Ever ask yourself why a distinguished horseman like N.Howard couldn't get SC to run a lick and 14 days later he is running off the screen?

whichever three year old wins the classic wins the three year old championship, obviously its pretty even though I think as it goes hard spun has accomplished the most as he danced most the dances

street sense would have the Derby, Travers
hard spun would have the jim beam, the kings bishop, the kentucky cup classic
any given saturday would have the haskell, brooklyn
tiago would have the santa anita derby, the goodwood

And the answer is DING DING DING

The Derby and Travers are obviously a billion times more important then any of the races Hard Spun or AGS have won..Keep in mind I really like Hard Spun alot but I you have to be somewhat objective.

Hard Spun wins Most Athletic.

Ya think? lol

I just hope all of the winners sign my yearbook. That would be, like, totally awesome. Ohhh Emmm Geee!!
