AndyScoggin · That was the BC at AQU. I actually went to that one and Tasso was a big winner for me at a good price. Was it 9-2? · 235 days ago ·

Mike in SB · I don't know if this should make the list, but one of my most memorable Juveniles was the year that Is It True beat Easy Goer in the rain at Churchill Downs. Arazi and Uncle Mo were great 2 year olds, but I think Easy Goer was just as good and I still can't believe he lost that race. · 235 days ago ·

KeithStrouhal · I would have put Arazi 1st. He had never raced on dirt , ha a chip in his knee (which they should've left alone) and he showed a devastating series of moves and drew off so easily against much superior competition than perfect trip Uncle Mo (my favorite horse ever tied with Zarkova) that he ranks ahead of my buddy MO. · 235 days ago ·

DeadHeat · Much superior. I based this off of what the competition did up to that point, since Juveniles can change so quickly. At that point, in a field of 10 there were 6 other grade one winners besides Mo. Also there was a grade three winner and the two that had not won graded stakes were both grade one placed. It was a strong field of Juveniles. I understand they haven't come back well, but in retrospect look at how many have returned at all so far. You can't judged based on what you do not know. What if Boys wins big next. Both Rouge and Riveting were injured, so if they come back well that speaks volumes too. Thirsty has come back very well. Of course, Thirsty is the only one we can say so far, but what I would challenge you to do is look at how the fillies ran, only one day before. They ran the same distance in 1.45 and change. The first two finishers Awesome Feather and R Heat both went on to do quite well. Mo ran that distance in 1.42 and change. That is why his performance was so great to me. It was a slow surface that sucked the life out of speed. He was close to the lead and showed no signs of weakening, but only wanting more ground. It was a huge run. · 235 days ago ·

DeadHeat · Not off the top of my head. As I said earlier, I had to go back and watch them all, because I wasn't around to watch most. · 235 days ago ·
