      he ran the first 1/4 in 22+ ,second and third 1/4 in 25+ and a mile in 1:12 that's hardly a fast pace. Essential Quality is clearly the class of this bunch with HRC second best.

      Gets me a bit mad that some people think this crop is bad or weak. Even though all three triple crown races are on the faster end when it comes to time. That said, there has been a clear divide on which horses we should look forward to though that could change depending on how some of them develop into their later 3 year old and perhaps 4 year old career.

Nothing any of them do today could ever be considered great when you go back and see what their magnificent ancestors did.
