BC Juvenile - Top 3 finishers

I know it is impossible to know.....and it is ridiculously early to speculate on something like that......but I find these horses more interesting than many top BC juvies in the past (and therefore more worthy of this sort of premature discussion) for a couple reasons.
1) It seems like a lot of the time a good 2yo runs the entire year and we never figure out if he can run behind other horses. Not the case here, they have all proved they can do that.
2) Pedigree - All 3 are by sires who were serious 10f horses (street cry - thunder gulch - aptitude) and none of those horses did their best running at 2.
3) None of them regressed in their 2yo season. All three seemed to keep improving over the course of the year.
I suppose the biggest question mark is Great Hunter since his only big win came on the poly, but he was solid if not spectacular on the dirt, and I think most Aptitudes tend to be late bloomers like their old man.



But that being said.....my pick is still Quay.

Dude its so hard to say how much that ridiculous scraped inside benefitted the winner as compared to CQ who was moving at the same time yet forced to go to the parking lot while the winner slid through inside.
My guess is that they are a LOT closer in ability than 10 lengths, LOL!.
But I feel both are better than Hunter.
I wish someday CD would learn to leave the track alone on big race days, they don't get it and never will, and two more horses were injured on that pavement.
