Default Best sprinters at half way point

Best sprinters at half way point ??

it s halfway till the BCS, and i think, (seriously) the best sprinters are,, in order.

1)Songster (every race is a new record of some type)
2)Foggy
3)Silver Train
4)Too much bling (if ridden off the rail path, Gomez ??)
5)Keyed Entry

i don't know where commentator would fit, as he hasn't run this year

Now that the triple crown races are history we will see some horse focus on what they are best suited for and my vote goes to Sinister Minister for a prospect to be a top sprinter.

LITF
Too Much Bling

Anew
Bordonero

Honorable Mention: Silver Train, he is a monster at Belmont Park, but not sold on him off of that racetrack.

Anew and LITF fighting for the top with the rest pushing. Whoever goes and wins the BC this will be a toughie. KE will be a contender either here or the flat mile. Depenting where Pletcher puts him.I might be a year early for KE but this horse is fast but older horse may be too much this year.
