There's about ten highly promising 3yo males who've run two races or less - and most of them have distance friendly pedigrees and big name trainers. There's also a laughably pathetic division of older males - it's a complete joke that a bunch of 2nd time starters are almost as fast as the top older males in the country. If you like ultra promising horses who've run twice or less - this is a glory year. Uncle Mo is ultra seasoned - he's actually run three whole races.

As far as some horses who I think perhaps have a lot of talent
Uncle Mo Boys At Tos - If he ever gets back to the track The Factor Brethren Soldat Dialed In Tapizar - If he gets back to the track BTW I am in no way saying that all these horses have promising classic distance pedigrees in my above list. I am just saying that they may be talented. And I am only listing horses off the top of my head so I am sure I left a few horses off my list others may include as potentially talented colts.

For what it's worth, Astrology's damside was all about precocity as a 2YO. It's going to be interesting to see how much money he burns this year. Last edited by NTamm1215 : 03-04-2011 at 04:11 PM.

One factor regarding pedigree that has held extremely well over considerable time is the number of points in a horses DP, since dosage was first computed in 1940, only 2 horses have won the Derby with less than 16 points in their DP...Count Fleet in 1943 (4) and Middleground in 1950 (12). Uncle Mo has 8 points, Mucho Macho Man has 12, Rogue Romance 12, Toby's Corner 10 and Gourmet Dinner 12. Not saying these horses can't defy this stat but obviously this is a concern if you are backing one of them, especially Uncle Mo.

Uncle Mo The Factor (only one without a true distance pedigree) Sway Away Machen Brethren and Elite Alex have been overhyped - but both have a distance pedigree - and are lightly raced enough that big development wouldn't surprise anyone.

Turfers Data Link and Silver Medallion need to be added in the overall scheme of the crop.

I do disagree with Cal Nation. While he might be a really nice horse, I'm not convinced of that off his debut.
