Default 2y olds to watch

With Dmr and Sar openings in a little over a month, the 2y olds are really starting to work. This is my favorite time of year. To watch these possible triple crown runners get their start. Many of the better ones are introduced during these meets. I'll point out a few that I feel are worthy as they take the track for the first time(before they run). A few pan out, but as we know most do not.

A win is a win. Wasn't the triple crown denied by that much once?

I too am very interested in the 2y/o's especially the first crop sires. I looked at several Candy Rides at the sales and really loved them, ended up buying a Congaree but that was after I lost out on two Candy Rides.....

Default First Crop Sires

From what i've seen at a couple of the sales, the Lion Hearts looked awesome, same goes for most of the Roar of the Tigers and the Lightinin and Thunders....The Ten Most Wanteds were all visually unimpressive

Of the FL stallions, I like the Peace Rules' quite a bit so far. The Olmovadors might surprise a bit too for a lower-priced type...

Looks like this Winning Colors baby is going to be a nice one. She has'nt, as we all know been very successful as a Broodmare in passing along her greatness. There is only one left after this one. http://racing.bloodhorse.com/article/45723.htm
