What the Nation is saying about The Top 10 Lists...

Morning Line I haven't gave up on you yet...hoping he rebounds with a nice performance in the Donn. Caracortado=grass...I hope the connections stick with this simple equation. Dialed In jumped to my number 2 but one could very well argue to keep To Honor And Serve at 2, but Uncle Mo is clealy the 1. I'm still keep Dancing at my 1 over Kathmanblu...I loved how she was flying at the end off the layoff.
Thanks Cigar ... yes, Chamberlain was close on both the sprint and turf list, not sure where to put him. My guess is Morning Line turns the tables on Rule in the Donn, but I have big respect for him. Solid selections, BayRoan ... not ready to Honor & Serve ahead of Mo, though. ;-)
Rule was very impressive 1st off the layoff....he will improve greatly as the year goes on. Nice to see Aggie Engineer and Shared Account on your lists. I'm a little suprised not to see Chamberlain Bridge in the top 10 turf list (although he is just a sprinter). Looking forward to seeing Machen progress this year. Great lists as always.
To H&S, Dancinginherdreams, no pick for older male, toss up between Switch & Blind Luck, Big Drama, Paddy, toss-up between Harmonious & Shared Account. These are crosses between who I think it will be and sentimental faves.
We should learn a lot more about the Eastern older males in the Donn. Fly Down, Morning Line, and Rule all face a tough task.
I have a feeling Machen, Morning Line, Rule, Evening Jewel and Life At Ten will all move up thier respective lists as the year progresses.
Great lists. Have to agree on most every list but the 3yo's. Kathmanblu, Big Drama, Paddy, Switch and Fly Down look like standouts. I think the Derby is still a crapshoot.
