Pletcher also doesn't talk about Eclipse awards, he wins them, and he's very high on EC, said he's the 2nd best yearling him and his father ever purchased.
If this happens, the more experienced horse will get my money, but I say there is less than a 5% chance we even see this matchup this year.

The only way we don't see this matchup is if EC doesn't run in the Turf Classic or BC Turf. Highly unlikely.
Both three year olds, Showing Up and Go Between will be just as good as the older horses in the fall. Showing Up already is and Go Between is getting much better quickly.
