And We Think OUR Voters Are Stupid?

Could it be that Not Bourban is a Canadian bred and Fatal Bullet is KY bred? I wouldn't dismiss Not Bourban too quickly I think he has a shot of being a pretty decent 4 yr old whether it's in Canada or The U.S.

The point is How does Fatal Bullet get HOY and not the divisional title. It's like making Big Brown the HOY and overlooking him as 3yo champ. (This is NOT an endorsement of BB for HOY!)

I did check the Sovereign Awards requirements and the only stipulation is a horse has to race 3 times in Canada to qualify, 2 times for a 2 yr old. You do not have to be a Canadian bred to win. I'm going to stick my neck out tonight and say I wouldn't be surprised if these 2 meet up next year Not Boubon will be more than a handful for Fatal Bullet.

Obviously, both of them qualified. If the voters decided that Fatal Bullet wasn't better than Not Bourbon and wasn't the best 3yo, how does it make any sense to vote Fatal Bullet as the HOY? That is the question. The two of them are totally different horses. Not Bourbon would be no match for Fatal Bullet in a sprint and Fatal Bullet would be no match for him in a route.
