There's little doubt that Eskendreya, if healthy, would be going for the TC right now.

Major problem with Eskendreya winning the Triple Crown is the inablity to run in any of the races.

Yes, most likely the best horse but he couldn't dance the dance.

The year Barberstown won the Belmont there was a s h i t pot of Triple Crown hopefuls that were better than Barberstown. They got sick that year at Hollywood Park and most died. You got to dance the dance.
