Just think, less than a decade ago they ran:

Tremont
Sanford
Saratoga Special
Hopeful
Futurity
Cowdin
Champagne

...in succession. They only need about 3 of those nowadays.

I suppose since Dutrow already "called" the Hopeful, Asmussen will point Kantharos for the Futurity next.

Even if he doesn't compare to either of the other two, I'm going to chuckle when Lou Brissie is the only one running in Derby preps next March.

A First Samurai firster put in a decent late run today at Churchill, Im looking for him next time. As for the 3 we are talking about, and Classics next year, I doubt any of them get there.
