I have been saying it for a few months now amongst my racing friends, but this year's crop is lacking that initial feeling of star power. But if you think about past years, did any of them have it too? I'd say yes, Street Sense was a buzz horse. Prior to that, Barbaro did gain a lot of attention. But this year, not one horse seems to carry a lot of punch.
I like the format proposed by DrugS on a top ten list. Very interesting.
