Barbaro (the Champ)

I don't think anyone one is disputing if Bernardini beats older horses he wouldn't get the award. In fact, if he does and they gave him HOY and Barbaro 3-y/o champ that would almost seem to be correct in many ways.

How in the world is anyone supposed to form an intelligent opinion on this topic until the season is over?
