Super Frolic hasn't won a single race and hasn't even run 2nd in a G1 this year. At least Flower Alley has a G3 victory. To me the most pathetic thing was the committee chair saying that Flower Alley had no graded stakes victories this year before someone had to correct him and tell him that the Salvator Mile was a G3. How can you be involved in making that decision and be clueless as to the grading of a race?
I'm surprised that Flower Alley is an also eligible but I like it. It sets the precedent that for inclusion into the BC you will be judged solely on what you accomplished during that year. No coasting in based on prior accomplishments.
